Caprese Lasagna

I am loving making everything caprese lately! The mix of mozzarella, basil and tomatoes is absolutely delicious! I’ve also been really into balsamic vinegar lately too so adding it to this recipe was just an explosion of flavor that made this a recipe that didn’t last long. I highly recommend this for a big Sunday dinner! I included instructions to make a balsamic glaze yourself but if you want to skip that step, you can get some pre-made glaze hereContinue reading “Caprese Lasagna”

Beef and Chorizo Chili

Beef and Chorizo Chili

Anyone who follows me on Instagram knows that I participated in a charity chili cookoff last weekend. It was a great time and helped raise a lot of money to benefit the Exchange Club Parenting Skills Center in Stamford, CT which helps end child abuse.

Now I made about 25 pounds for the contest, which is a ton of chili, so I took my measurements and cut them by about 2/3 so it’s a much more manageable amount.  Continue reading “Beef and Chorizo Chili”

Double Chocolate Banana Bread

My kids eat a lot of bananas so I get the opportunity to make banana bread a lot. I can do the regular Cinnamon Sugar Banana Bread, which is a big favorite around here, or I can change it up and make this decadent Double Chocolate Banana Bread! This was a huge hit with my kids and they loved the mini chocolate chips inside. I used my trusty loaf pan for this. I get a lot of use out of it and I love it. You can find a similar one here. If you have a chocolate craving, this recipe is perfect for you!  Continue reading “Double Chocolate Banana Bread”
