This past week all I’ve wanted to do is bake. I”m sure the very cold temperatures and snowy weather have something to do with this. Regardless, I really just want to bake. And if I’m not baking, I’m making homemade pizza in the pizza oven. Which is currently my very favorite thing to do, I can’t get enough pizza (new recipes are coming). Or banana bread. Clearly my “Healthy January” is going soo well… In all honesty, I’ve found this year’s “Healthy January” to be a little tougher than in years past....

There really are no words for this cake other than incredible. The base is like a brownie, the center is the silkiest, creamiest, chocolate mousse, and the top is pure chocolate heaven. And as if all that wasn’t awesome enough, this cake is one hundred percent HEALTHY! Not only is it loaded with PROTEIN and ANTIOXIDANTS, but it’s EASY to create. I mean, really could it get better? I am thinking no....

Hands down this is the best sweet bread I have ever made. You guys, I really just do not even have words. This bread is incredible. I know I plan on making it every Sunday from now until Christmas. I have many reasons for this. One is that it is addicting. Seriously, you will want slice after slice. Two is the smell. Oh the smell. It is pure happiness in the air....

First though, we have to talk about my age. Yeah, my age. I am the very young age of nineteen, two years away from twenty-one. Sometimes I feel odd posting recipes with alcohol in them because I am not legal. Sure, I am legally considered an adult, but I can not legally drink alcohol. And trust me, I don’t. You will never catch me with a margarita, spiked coffee, beer or even a glass of wine....

Which is why I have a total of ten. Yes, ten. Remember I have a problem with decisions and I just could not decide which photos to use. Originally there was eighteen, so give me some credit. At least I got rid of eight, but trust me it was hard. Pretty sure I spent a good twenty minutes trying decide which photos to delete. I have issues, I am aware....

Muffins are always a hit in my house – some of our favorites include chocolate chip muffins, cherry muffins and healthy blueberry muffins. During the winter months I make a ton of these cranberry muffins and also cranberry bread. These treats are the perfect blend of sweet and tart flavors! When fresh cranberries are in season, I bake with them almost every week. I just can’t get enough of that sweet-tart flavor combination....

And more Greek food. I love Greek food. I think it cures all things. Or at least I wish it cured all things. I am currently not feeling so good. I have that whole sore throat, achy thing going on. Complete with the chills and a to-do list the size of Santa’s naughty and nice list. To be honest, it is not that bad. I just really hate sore throats....

Just like most people, I love a summer Caprese salad. It’s a summer classic. And when tomatoes are really at their peak, nice and juicy and sweet, it’s a delicious salad to enjoy almost daily. But I have to admit, there are only so many tomato, basil, and mozzarella dishes I can enjoy before getting a little bored. Tomatoes can obviously be used throughout so many different recipes, so I’m trying to branch out and away from Caprese this season....

As a kid, the buffalo chicken pizza we’d order from our local pizza spot used to be one of my favorites. Anytime we’d do an at-home pizza night I’d request the buffalo chicken. Most of the time we stuck with cheese and pepperoni, super average. But then there were nights we’d order from our local in-town pizza place in Ohio, Pelicanos. It was my best friend, Stephanie, who first introduced me to this saucy, spicy, cheesy chicken pizza....

It’s time for an easy Sunday dinner, but one that’s fun, healthy… and Mexican too! One that you literally just throw in the crockpot, go do your thing, and is all ready to be put together when dinner time rolls around. It really could not be simpler. And guys, this chicken is DELICIOUS! This is one of those staple recipes that everyone needs to have on hand. Not only is it great for Sunday night family dinners, but the leftovers are the best, and can be used in so many different ways for extra easy meals throughout the week....

Leaning into summer appetizer season here with this quick and delicious Crumbled Feta and Tomato Basil Vinaigrette Dip. Herby and garlicky, these roasted tomatoes are served over salty crumbled feta cheese. This is the simplest of appetizers, yet so amazingly GOOD. Serve this dish at all of your upcoming late spring and summer gatherings…or simply when you just have an abundance of tomatoes. It’s the perfect warm-weather appetizer for just about all occasions....

Starting the weekend off with a celebratory bar like these apple butter bars is just so perfect, especially for this particular Friday. To say that it’s been a really great productive would be an understatement. If you guys have been reading and following along this week on both HBH and Instagram, then you know that we’ve been working on a huge shoot with Anthropologie in the new studio barn space....

One word. YUM. Spicy crunchy chickpeas, tomato basil penne pasta, and burrata. All made in about thirty minutes and using pantry staple ingredients. I mean, what could be better than that (said in my best Ina Garten voice)? It’s no secret around here that I like, no love, my carbs, and pasta has to be one of my favorites. Who else is with me on this? As I write this post, it’s currently dumping snow outside my window and has been all day long....

Growing up, we didn’t go out or order in all that much. With so many kids running around, I think my parents had their hands full between my brothers and me. However, the one thing we did sometimes order out? Buffalo Wild Wings or BW3’s as we used to call them. On Sunday nights in the fall, we’d occasionally get the treat of ordering up wings for Sunday dinner and Sunday night football....

Christmas and winter season mean you get to enjoy all sorts of baked goodies! As I have been sharing Christmas baked goodies, this recipe of Eggless Self-Saucing Chocolate Pudding comes in highly recommending from my family for anyone who loves dark ooey-gooey chocolaty desserts. At the every year, I make chocolate based desserts and baked goodies, this year too I thought of making a chocolate based cake or the masterchef famous brookie (brownie + cookie) but then as usual I let my instincts get the better of me and I ended up making self-saucing chocolate pudding that’s egg-free and so easy to make....

I love to make my own Mediterranean food at home including ultra creamy hummus, chicken shawarma and this super delicious falafel recipe. In my opinion, this is the best falafel of all time! Whenever I go to my local Mediterranean restaurant, I have to order falafel. I cannot resist that crunchy coating and flavorful interior. Even my kids adore this dish! Luckily, it’s actually quite easy to make this delicacy, and the results are fabulous each and every time....

Ingredients Water Fresh ginger Chamomile tea Honey Ground turmeric Cayenne pepper Vodka Mango juice Lemon Apple cider vinegar Sparkling water Switching up the average Tuesday post today and sharing a fun, but oh so healthy, drink recipe with you guys! Typically, I like to share out drinks on Saturdays, but this drink just feels a little different, and much more fitting for today. Heck, who am I kidding, everything feels a little different these days, I mean right?...

I happen to be a shrimp lover; whether it’s Cajun shrimp pasta, shrimp fried rice, or these delightfully crunchy fried shrimp. This is a must-try recipe if you have seafood lovers in your life! You can also impress your seafood fans with elegant dishes such as grilled tilapia, steamed mussels and classic bouillabaisse. Whenever I see fried shrimp on a restaurant menu, I have to order it. I love that combination of sweet tender shrimp with a crispy coating....

Looking for a meatless main course? I’ve got you covered with these easy and healthy couscous bowls that are loaded with goodness from the garden. I’m trying to come up with the best way to describe these Greek couscous bowls, but the picture really speaks for itself don’t you think? It’s like your favorite greek salad toppings, but on a bowl of lemon dill Israeli couscous instead of lettuce. These Greek couscous bowls make the perfect light and healthy dinner or side dish and they’re ready in less than 30 minutes....
