Spicy, nutty and moist morning glory muffins hit the mark
I just adore morning glory muffins. They are my favorites - full of spices, nuts, fruit, and even carrots. Many bakeries make great morning glory muffins, but the best I've ever had were those from Stacey Cakes bakery in McCall, Idaho because they have the warm spice ...By Susie Iventosch

Dates, maple and pecans make this bar a perfect pick-me-up
The combination of toasted pecans, dates, maple flavoring and a little Himalayan salt is delicious! A bit of fresh lemon sets off the sweetness, just right, too. These bars are kind of like Lara Bars or the Thunderbird Real Food Bars and they are a great source of ...By Susie Iventosch

Jalapeno, cilantro and lime add a fresh twist to this classic dip
This is a fun twist on hummus, made with fresh-diced jalape¤os, cilantro and lime juice to give it a "south of the border" flair. We added 1.5 jalape¤os, but you can add as much or as little as you like to suit your personal tastes. The fresh cilantro gives this hummus ...By Susie Iventosch

A scrumptiously simple concoction to top your favorite frozen dessert
This recipe for caramelized pears is super simple, which is probably a good thing after the last two recipes we've featured. Serve it over your favorite vanilla frozen concoction, whether it's ice cream, frozen yogurt or some other variation, like coconut milk or soy ...By Susie Iventosch

Wrap up healthy goodness in these roasted veggie crepes
First, we roast a huge tray of assorted vegetables tossed in olive oil with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Then we chop it all up, mix it with grated Gruyere cheese and roll it into a freshly cooked crepe. I like to call it "ratatouille in a wrap." It is a dish I ...By Susie Iventosch

Savory tidbits make a perfect Super Bowl snack
These savory rolls are super delicious and so easy to make. What I love about them is that they call for olive oil instead of butter and nonfat plain yogurt to bind them together. Not to mention, they are full of olive bits and grated cheese, two of our favorite foods! ...By Susie Iventosch

Packed with flavor, this Mediterranean meal will bowl you over
Bowls are trendy and also a fun way to combine all sorts of your favorite ingredients into a dish that can be a complete and colorful meal! It's hard to find a menu these days that doesn't offer a "bowl" section. I probably would have called this dish a salad a few ...By Susie Iventosch

Baked jalapeno poppers the perfect starter for the New Year
A friend served these tasty baked jalape¤o poppers for hors d'oeuvres one night and we thoroughly enjoyed them. The novelty of adding chorizo to the cheese filling and wrapping them in bacon made them pretty darn irresistible. When we made them, we added some grated ...By Susie Iventosch

This coconut-lovers' cake is perfect for the holiday season
I love coconut! People usually have very strong opinions about coconut . they either love it or hate it, but rarely do you find a person who is ambivalent about coconut. I can't get enough of it, whether it's in macaroons, a Ritter Sport candy bar, 7-layer bar cookies, ...By Susie Iventosch

A lighter version of leek latkes, with some flavorful finesse
This year I was inspired to make leek latkes because of a recipe I found in Orly Ziv's cookbook for fried leek patties. Orly is a foodie in Tel Aviv, Israel and she offers market tours and cooking classes, which I enthusiastically took and thoroughly enjoyed while we ...By Susie Iventosch

Warm, creamy twice-baked goodness perfect for fall
Sweet potatoes rarely see the light of day in our house because my husband can't stand them, not even sweet potato fries, which are so yummy. I get it, I'm that way with beets, and they are so popular these days. You see beets everywhere and on every menu. But, you'll ...By Susie Iventosch

Whether for a main or side, this savory tart stands out
The exceptional flavor combination of blue cheese, caramelized red onions and toasted walnuts is worthy of a few hours spent in the kitchen making this delicious tart. It really could stand on its own for a meal, but it makes a fantastic appetizer for a dinner party, ...By Susie Iventosch

Comfort food for cooler fall days
This dish says "autumn"! Turkey or pork tenderloin roasted with apples, cabbage and onions is comfort food for cooler fall days. A touch of sage and country Dijon complement the sweet nature of the roasted apples and veggies. As I was pouring the extra sauce over the ...By Susie Iventosch
