Breakfast

Bacon, Havarti and Arugula Quiche

With Easter right around the corner, I’ve been starting to think of some tasty brunch items to include on my menu. This quiche is somewhat unique because it uses phyllo dough for the crust instead of pastry dough, providing a wonderful flaky texture. The creamy and slightly sweet Havarti cheese pairs beautifully with the salty Bacon, Havarti and Arugula Quiche

Cardamom Orange Rice Pudding

Rice pudding was one of my Grandma’s favorite desserts, so I always love making it. It’s creamy and comforting and super simple to make. The cardamom adds a wonderful depth of flavor and the orange zest adds brightness. I used golden raisins, pistachios and shredded coconut as my add-ins, but any dried fruit or nuts Cardamom Orange Rice Pudding

Mixed Berry Almond Galette

Puff pastry is one of my favorite ingredients to work with because it’s so versatile and delicious. The buttery, flaky crust on this galette pairs beautifully with the creamy fruit filling and toasty, crunchy almond crust. Serve this warm topped with vanilla ice cream or gelato, or simply dust with powdered sugar. Preheat oven to Mixed Berry Almond Galette

The banana adds just the right amount of sweetness and also provides a good Cottage Cheese Banana Pancakes

Date, Walnut & Pecan Banana Bread

Banana bread is one of those foods I remember making with my mom growing up. I feel like bananas are one thing in our house that always turn ripe so quickly so this was a perfect way to transform them. This bread is made with olive oil and Greek yogurt which provide great texture. The Date, Walnut & Pecan Banana Bread
