I know what you are thinking – Dukkah isn’t kids food!  Well I thought the same things, so when H and I decided to make this homemade nutty dukkah the other morning.  I wasn’t expecting H to like it.  He has never been a huge fan of cumin so I thought there is no way…. But, I turned…

Frozen banana pops with a healthy cocoa-tahini coating that not only tastes great, but it is good for you.  Sugar-free and a great snack option that the kids will love to help make.   You simply chop a banana into thirds and stick a paddle pop stick or skewer into the end and freeze for a few hours….

Baked ricotta is creamy, lemony, deliciousness.  What more can I say!  The little dude was a  huge fan.  He looooooves dips – or possibly the actual dipping itself, but either way he dipped away with gusto.  Serve as a dip at your next party or I love it served with roasted veggies and crusty bread for a…

This post has been a long time coming.  I usually have 3 or 4 recipes ready to go but I have had a number of flops recently and have become a little over it! First there was my lemony asparagus pasta that I make often but turned to mush on this occasion.  Then I attempted a…
