  As some of you may know, one of my favorite cuisines is Thai. This recipe was inspired by the best Thai restaurant around us. I love to explore different foods, so when I saw pickled cucumbers on the menu, I opted to ordering them. When I took my first […]

Pickled Cucumbers

This summer we have been doing a lot of hiking in the Adirondack Mountains and there are always lots of wild blueberries, so we were inspired to make blueberry muffins. We actually bought our blueberries from our farm stand from a mother and daughter farmer because the blueberries we pick do not […]

Adirondack Blueberry Muffins

This is a delicious recipe for peach galette. It is great in the summer with fresh peaches and we have made for the holidays or just for a random treat dessert. The crust is flaky and delicious with a soft peach filling that is definitely going to win over your guests […]

I love savory breakfasts, I love peas and I love avocados so I combined all of my favorites to make pea pancakes topped with delicious guacamole and beautiful crunchy and refreshing pea sprouts! You might have seen us make this recipe on Rachael Ray!?  She loves peas too ( : Lyla’s Pea […]

Pea Pancakes with Guacamole and Pea Shoots

We have done a lot of experimenting with banana bread. Some from other peoples recipes, some of our own. Some have been OK, or too dry or too sweet or just so so.  Finally, we have come up with our own recipe that we think is very delicious and the best. […]

This pesto is so fresh and perfectly green (Lyla’s favorite color). It is really simple. We made it in our Vitamix but you can make it in a food processor or regular blender too. With pesto you normally add parmesan cheese but we did not have any so we topped our pesto pasta off with goat […]

Fresh Basil Spinach Pesto

Eggs with Sweet and Spicy Pineapple! Emily and I love to give each other Chopped baskets, and one time she gave me pineapple, sriracha, tempeh, and mayo. I thought well grilled pineapple is good, so that’s just what I did for the main accent what I turned into an open faced breakfast egg […]

Eggs with Sweet and Spicy Pineapple

We had such an amazing time at the C-CAP event this year. C-CAP was started by our friend Mr. Grausman. C-CAP stands for Careers through Culinary Arts Programs and it teaches culinary skills to “underserved high school students to prepare them for college and career opportunities in the restaurant and hospitality industry.” It […]

Some people think that Emily and I are so alike, but we are two peas in a pod that each have different personalities. We wanted to show everyone this by having one of our favorite ingredients, the pea, be a play on words, in an ingredient collaboration. Two peas in a pod. […]

Almond Apricot Crackers

Spring is in the Air!  That makes us excited because Spring is famous for delicious fruits and veggies which make for some fun food. A way to celebrate is with Spring Rolls which we think are quite a festive to roll into spring (get it? we are all about a play on words lately ( : […]

Spring Rolls: How We Roll into Spring!

These artichokes are to-die-for. They are crispy, herby, and lemony. They melt in your mouth and are perfection with a cooling lemon dijon aioli.  My mom had made these before, but it was a totally different recipe and never quite as delicious (sorry mom!) Today I was home with a bad cold, […]

Artichokes Francaise

  Every year kids make valentine’s to give to their teachers or friends. This year maybe give something a little different.  We love making delicious cakes and brownies and putting our own powdered sugar “cut-out” messages and designs on them. We like to sometimes put joke messages on the cakes too like we did […]

I was in the mood for something sweet and salty for dinner. I love butternut squash and coconut milk and caramelized onion so I combined these for a really yummy pasta sauce that had just the right amount of sweet and savory and a tiny bit of spiciness from a dash […]
