Here is a cookie recipe I made modifying one of our favorite chefs Chloe Coscarelli (she’s vegan and won Cupcake Wars and has the best cookbooks). They are gluten free and vegan (actually all of Chloe’s recipes are vegan). And since Ly and I are gluten free, we made with […]
One day after school, my family and I went out to get something warm to drink. I got apple cider with pumpkin spice. I loved it, and was inspired to make the spice myself. So we pulled up a recipe from the Farmer’s Almanac. Recipe: 1/3 cup ground cinnamon. 1 tablespoon […]
We have a wonderful organic farm that is a pleasure to go to. A few days ago they had a tasting, and it was the best food I’ve ever tasted. They had squash, fennel pasta, squash moose, and to top it all off a wonderful squash soup. When you get […]
This was the first time I tried Gazpacho. I made it with my dad and I really liked it. We used fresh red cherries as the secret ingredient (not so secret anymore though). My mom said we shouldn’t use cherries, she thought it would be gross…but she was wrong and […]
This summer, during a very hectic week, Lyla and I took a 3-day boating coarse. This boating coarse was age 10+. Our friends took it with us. We studied hard trying to remember about PWC’s (personal water craft), PFD’s (personal flotation device), parts of a boat, the engine, and much […]
Something to remember… We found this floating around in drafts I thought you might like to read it. This is some background on me and my sister. When we were little my dad, sister and I used to eat meat. I had liked most of the meats, but the thing […]
During the school year our local high school hosted a competition called “Shark Tank”. It was like the TV show except there were teachers and students judging and they didn’t really invest it was just a game show, and believe it or not Emily and I won 1st place! Now if […]
We tried it once, and we are going to try it again. We love beets, but are not sure about this. Have you tried this type of yogurt? We’ll post our review after we try it again. -Have a good night the Kitchen-Twins
What is Meatless Monday? Meatless Monday is a day to try and not eat meat, and that is easy for us because we are vegetarian (well mostly, sometimes we eat fish). If you do eat meat and want to try eating less, this is a way to not eat meat […]
One day my friend and I were talking about how we cook every day. We went on and on about who could make better truffles. Here is the recipe I made for the mini competition. After you try these truffles, let me know who you think won the competition! You […]
I was watching a cooking show one day and Ree Drummond was making something with potatoes and eggs and that inspired me to make hashbrowns. I use organic gold potatoes because they are grown in the ground, and they have no chemicals added to them when they are grown. Gold […]
This salad is a “wonder” blend of veggies and fruits with an aged balsamic vinaigrette. This sounds fancy, but it is really simple. We had tried kale chips before and liked them and then we tried a kale salad at a friend’s house, so we decided we would make one at […]

Broccoli “Stars” Don’t throw away the broccoli stems they are delicious as a little finger food! You can these eat them by themselves or dip them in something. They are kind of like a crispy chip and we like to call them “stars” because sometimes they look like a star […]
This summer we started eating a lot mung bean salads for lunch. Because mung beans go with everything we put anything whatever fruits or veggies we have available in the salad. They are great because mung beans go with anything. For instance I like peaches, apples and avocado on my […]
We love popcorn, and we also love to experiment with it too. These are three of our favorite ways… Peanut Butter and Honey: Take your popped popcorn, and put in a frying pan. Scoop creamy or chunky peanut butter onto your popcorn. Drizzle some honey, and gently stir popcorn until […]
A Kitchen Twin Tip video- let hot melted butter cool down a bit before you add to an egg batter or else it scrambles! ( 🙁 :IMG_0425
This is a simple recipe for guacamole. My family never knew my special recipe, but now they will. I started liking avocados this past year, and in that time I created this guacamole that my family says is the best. Now your family can too. You will […]
