What Mother wouldn’t love a freshly baked cinnamon roll for Mother’s Day? Maybe there are a few out there, but I am pretty certain most would be super happy to find a fresh baked cinnamon roll smell coming from the kitchen on Mother’s Day morning. I attempted to simplify the ingredients and method to the point where you and your kids can make them together, which how cute is that going to be? So cute! I’ll be honest,…

Queso fresco is home to me. Warm tortillas a sprinkle of the queso fresco, add a pinch of salt, and I am a happy girl. I’ve been eating this for as long as I can remember. It is home like I said, back to Sacramento in my Mamas kitchen, or even back to Mexico in my aunts kitchen. Take a tortilla and warm it up over the gas stove flame, toast the edges a bit, there is nothing like it. And the salt brings a nice touch to the party of…

They played off one another to give this biscuit a deep savory…

Every once in a while I wish you could smell the scents coming from the kitchen, this is one of those times. Super selective smell-o-vision, like a nice flower, forest smells, or organic coconut flour right out of the bag. Any of those would be so lovely. When I was testing this recipe over the last month, I thought that every single time I opened the bag of coconut flour to make the crust. It smells like fresh ground coconuts, which is so…

Much of my early life was spent in Mexico where I was born. Pan dulce, Mexican sweet bread or hojaldre, is a treat that is often enjoyed in the evening in place of dinner. Traditionally you would eat a large lunch around one in the afternoon, and a small meal at night called, merienda. A typical small meal would be a toasted ham and cheese sandwich, pan dulce, oreja, or quesadilla. Simple evening goodness. When I was old enough I had a cafe…
