Fruit Flag Pizza
Wave your flag!  It’s time to get patriotic…with your food! It’s no secret that I like to play with my food. I credit my food “artistry” skills to a childhood of picky eating, when just shuffling broccoli around on my plate got a little boring.  (I mean, hey, why not turn it into a little mini broccoli “tree” next to the mushroom house with a baby carrot roof?) While my mom was usually less than amused back then, thankfully... Read More ›

Autumn Fruit with Spiced Yogurt
Who says autumn food can't be as fresh as summer's? Try the fruits of fall swaddled in fresh spiced yogurt for a special kinda wonderful! What’s your favorite fall fruit?

My dad took the first bite and his face wrinkled up like he had eaten a lemon. I forked into my pie slice and gasped for my glass of... Read More ›
