I'm sure you've tried spiral-ized veggie noodles by now. It's such a craze! Honestly, I'm never going to be able to give up on my love for a cheesy, baked pasta dish! But I also know that its not the best for me. So even though, I don't consider these zucchini noodles to be a direct replacement for that pasta dish, I do think this dish is just delicious and amazing in its own category! It definitely makes for the perfect quick weekday side dish! First off, I bought these noodles ...

This is the most amazing grilled shrimp!! Have you ever tried grilled shrimp and its been burned to a crisp? Or if its cooked nicely it doesn't taste like it ever touched the grill? I have found the solution for those problems to give you the most perfectly grilled shrimp!!  Its perfectly cooked and has a slight char on the outside.  The trick is all in the preparation of the shrimp before it even hits the grill. Because once the shrimp gets on the grill you will have just a few ...

July 30, 2018 by jill.patel 4 Comments

Have you had a chance to try Peruvian cuisine? Its actually very diverse and full of flavor and spices. Peruvian food is not just spicy but also sweet, smoky, savory and tangy. It gives you the full flavor profile in every dish, in every bite you take. Characteristics that remind me a lot of Indian cuisine actually.  One of the Peruvian dishes that I really love is a simple rotisserie chicken with the famous Aji Verde sauce or Peruvian Green Sauce from Pio Pio (a popular Peruvian ...

So we recently took Jaiden to the Crayola Factory in nearby Easton PA for part of his 3rd birthday celebration. Honestly, I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect, thinking it was just a crayon factory/workshop. I read from their website they had a ton of exhibits and activities but was it really going to be…
