Strawberry cupcakes are a really great idea. I mean who wouldn’t want a strawberry cupcake? My strawberry cake has been such a hit for years, I thought it was about time to adapt it into cupcakes!

They come together so quickly with pantry staples and only take 22 minutes to bake. They are also unbelievably good when eaten warm right out of the oven, straight from the skillet.
These chocolate peanut butter oat bars are incredibly crave-able! Something about the texture of the combined sweet and salty chocolate and peanut butter combo with the chewy, granola bar like crust. Hard to walk by the fridge and not want a piece. I have even been known to whip up back to back batches when the first one runs out, because I am not ready to no longer have them waiting when I open the fridge.
With roasted pineapple and apple pie I accidentally created another delicious pie recipe from using what I had on hand. It was a bit of an experiment on pairing apple and pineapple together. I figured that apple often accompanies most fruit and berries well and accents not overpowers. Also they both have the word ‘apple’ in them. So there’s that.

Cream of broccoli or broccoli cheddar soup was always a fave growing up for me. And since I have two kids who actually like broccoli, I have been searching for an amazing make at home recipe. I would try a few, find them underwhelming, ultimately get frustrated and not revisit the process again until the next winter. Eventually I found myself making it a mission to make a great recipe, because I could never quite find ‘the one.’ This however is THE ONE. The exact one. My wait for the perfect make at home broccoli soup is over. And the repeated recipe testing until perfect has paid off!
