Mac and cheese is great, but Mexican Mac and Cheese? Next-level delicious! It’s creamy, cheesy, a little spicy, and topped with crunchy, golden breadcrumbs. Whether you’re making it for dinner, a potluck, or just because you’re craving something amazing, this dish won’t disappoint!
10 MINUTE KALE, MUSHROOM & RED ONION STIR FRY
Today I found a bag of kale in the 50% off bargain bin at @freshco and had mushrooms to use up, so I threw together this Kale, Mushroom & Red Onion Stir Fry in just 10 minutes! 🍄🌿🧅
These sautéed veggies + the bold mix of balsamic, soy sauce & sriracha = the perfect quick meal. I served it over fluffy rice and it turned out to be an instant hit with my guys. They came back for a second helping just to find the pan was empty. I'll be making this again and again.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES (With optional Sourdough Discard)

(ps…this recipe is still delicious without the sourdough discard)

JAMAICAN SWEET FESTIVAL DUMPLINGS
Jamaican sweet festival dumplings always remind me of my now departed former pastors wife. She would make these and sneak me bags of them on Sundays when I was first a child, then a teen and finally as a young married mom.
They are delectable crispy on the outside, soft and warm on the inside morsels with a hint of sweetness that are enjoyed on their own but also pair perfectly with spicy or savory foods, making them a staple on most Jamaican dinner tables. The recipe is simple, but for me, they are packed with tradition and memories of the sweetest Jamaican woman who has made a huge impact on my life.
