Food is Bonding:

I love to cook for and with my friends and family, and most of my favorite memories and traditions revolve around food. I always want to use food to bring people together as my family grows!

On this page, I compiled a list of my recipes that my family loves. I also include links to some of our favorites from across the internet!

Ghosts, a poem

 Words can't be taken back Easily the hardest thing to master  Wondering how it might have been  Regrets, like ghosts; Wandering in the recesses, Finding past mistakes  Friends lost, Broken comradary, Shattered dreams of forever  Regrets, like ghosts; Forlornly remembering, Good times A hard word, a rude tone, Said to those we love Over what? A small thing Regrets, like ghosts; Of a word, a thought, an action, Spiral into the void  Fresh day, new prospective, Take it as it comes No looking back Regrets, like ghosts; Haunting the mind In the middle of the night

Egg Salad

Egg Salad Time and Servings: 25 min     1-2 servings Recommended ways to serve: I love to eat egg salad on fresh bread or a multigrain bagel with fruit on the side. You can also eat on a bed of lettuce or plain with bagel chips on the side. Ingredients: 2 eggs 1 Tbsp pickle relish 2 Tbsp mayo (I like Avocado Mayo, but any type works) salt to taste sprig of fresh dill or chives, minced (optional) Directions: Add eggs to a small pot of cold water (make sure the eggs are covered) and bring to a boil. Boil eggs for 8-9 minutes. Drain eggs and let stand cracked in cold water for 1-2 min (optional to help them peel well), then peel. Add peeled eggs, mayo, pickle relish, salt, and if desired dill/chives. Mix to combine. Enjoy! 

No Sugar Added Banana Bread

 No Sugar Added Banana Bread Time and servings: 1.5 hours     1 loaf Ingredients: 1/2 cup bread flour (or all-purpose flour) 1/2 cup whole wheat flour 1 tsp baking soda pinch of salt 1/4 cup butter, melted 1 egg 2 Tbsp Greek yogurt 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 3 overripe bananas Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large bowl, whisk egg. Add bananas and mash. Add yogurt, butter, and vanilla then mix. In a small bowl, add both types of flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and mix until just combined. Pour into a buttered loaf pan and bake for 60 minutes until golden and a testing stick comes out dry. Enjoy!
