Blueberry Lemon Pie
Sometimes you walk into a market and your eyes spot something so beautiful, so enticing, you know you have to have them. Baskets of gigantic blueberries were staring back at me and I knew this was my opportunity to make my favorite, blueberry lemon pie. How these huge, luscious blueberries survived my snacking long enough to make it into this pie is the real mystery here. This is a take on my friend Gretchen’s mother’s blueberry pie recipe. Cooked, the challenge as always is…will the fruit be soft enough to be called a pie. It’s easy to just throw fruit into a crust, which you most certainly can do, but…
Apple Pear Cardamom Tart

I made Mexican chocolate cookies around that time too, but they were a little flat and needed a bigger kick. So I decided to make them again…

Oatmeal Super Antioxidant Bites
Oatmeal is a quick and easy go to option for a nutritious breakfast, but it can also be the most fun. Pairing deliciously with just about any fruit, seed or nut, you can create your own wonderful combination to fit your lifestyle needs. Oatmeal is a naturally gluten free option that isn’t just for breakfast anymore. The first flavor I experimented with was “Nutella”. The scent of hazelnuts and chocolate transports me to my cousin Vita’s house on Staten Island. She would give us all a spoonful of the creamy spread and we would go outside on the stoop and eat our treat. Our chocolate hazelnut bite is a healthy…
