We love no bake treats around here, and these are absolutely delicious! They are so easy to make and your family will absolutely love them.

Today my sister and I took our kids to a children’s museum. Just before you enter they have these big outdoor xylophones for the kids to play with. We were all playing some tunes, and after a minute I look over and see this post about waist-high that has a wooden casing around it. I thought, “ooh, percussion!” And proceeded to tap and knock and whistle at it for a good 30 seconds before I realized that it really was just a post....

I get quite a few emails referring to a past post of mine, How NOT to Cook Indian food, from people confessing to me their creative and not so creative ways of imitating Indian flavours. As much as I love reading each and every one of them, it also sometimes makes me want to pull my eyes out when I see how much people actually enjoy Indian food, but yet, how ignorant they are about what actually goes into it....
You know how there is always this ONE recipe that no matter how hard you try to replicate, you never seem to be able to hit it just right? Somehow, the taste of when you first devoured the dish still lingers on your palate, and even after a dozen of your experimented versions later, you still know that it’s not quite as close to the original. I have one too many of those, but a particular Dal Makhani, from a little nondescript restaurant in Kuwait, certainly tops that list!...

Why is this easy ragu (meat sauce) so easy? Because it’s made using Italian sausage which is already seasoned. Salsiccia is Italian for sausage. For this recipe, I use a combination of sweet and spicy sausage that adds just the right amount of spicy kick to the sauce without being overpowering. Ragu (a meat heavy tomato sauce) is classically Italian. This sauce takes a lot less time than my low and slow cooked Traditional Bolognese Sauce (which is worth the wait, by the way)....
I made some Lamb Meatball Gyros. I just looked this up and learned that gyro is pronounced kind of like “euro.” Not “hero,” which was my most recent upgrade from “jie-row.” …It’s okay if you don’t want to be friends anymore. Take a lamb meatball. (Which, by the way, are amazing. Hello golden raisins.) Toss it on a pita. Dollop on some yogurt. Top with green onions, tomatoes, and lime....
What to serve with a veggie sandwich My go-to for sides is usually a salad or vegetables, but those are already in the sandwich! Ha! If you’re looking to round out the meal a bit, here are some good options. Oh well okay then. Apparently I didn’t notice he has moved developmentally past the stage of dipping fries and sucking off the ketchup, like any self-respecting toddler. No, now he’s bypassing the fries entirely to get to the main event: chugging that ketchup like it’s a Gatorade commercial....
A shrimp dinner does not have to be pricey. It is if you order it in a restaurant, but to make this dish at home, it is not. Read on, because I’m going to breakdown how much it cost me to make this dish for two. Up in the ranks with chocolate, seafood is possibly the most popular meal to eat on Valentine’s Day. Why? Because oysters are considered the number one seafood aphrodisiac, but not everyone likes oyster and shrimp coming in a close second....

Using Turkey If your family doesn’t eat pork or you want to lower the fat content of this soup, you can use Italian turkey sausage instead of pork. My family uses turkey sausage often in recipes; it provides a great flavor and is an awesome swap! Meatball Soup was the one of the first recipes that I learned how to make. It was rich and hearty, and there was something about combining chicken stock and tomato sauce that create a taste so reminiscent of my grandmother’s cooking I could have cried....
