We’re off to a strong start to 2018 after a lazy end to 2017. While the rest of the world was out drinking and dancing or standing in freezing cold Times Square, E and I were passed out on the couch in the middle of “Girl’s Trip,” only to be awaken by a teething baby. We […]

Meal Prep Treats: Sweet Potato Brownies
Meal prepping doesn’t just have to include food in tupperware containers. It can also mean stuff in pretty muffin tins that you can grab with one hand and race out the door and have a meal at your fingertips so you don’t pass out from hunger and low blood sugar on the subway (true story). […]
Back to School Breakfast Crepes
Though some kids head back to school in late August, the day after Labor Day is usually considered back to school day for adults. Today, we head back to offices or other work spaces after a lazy weekend and a slower paced summer, and get ready to buckle down again on fall projects. No matter where […]
Food Goals and Experiments for 2016
New year, new goals. I had trouble writing down what I wanted to accomplish in 2016. Am I really going to learn to kitesurf? What about picking up that Spanish again? So much to do, so little time. But I at least have my food goals in line. I’ve started the year by doing something […]
Christmas Morning Gingerbread Pancakes
Christmas Eve, y’all. I’m not concerned with the presents or Santa. I’m concerned about breakfast. Merry merry gingerbread pancakes! E and I are headed up to Vermont for Christmas. As you know, E and I are avid snowboarders, and we’ve been going to Vermont the past couple of winters. The conditions had been pretty good […]
Eggnog Waffles For Your Holiday Brunch
Seems it’s Eggnog Week here at 300. Hey, I’m on a roll here. Yesterday I shared our recipe for holiday eggnog. The only reason E and I didn’t drink the entire vat of it is because we had to hit two holiday parties later than evening in Connecticut, a road trip away from our cozy apartment […]
“GMA” Thanksgiving Morning After Monte Cristo
This is what you need to make in the morning of Thanksgiving, when you somehow have digested all of the food from the night before but you are STILL STARVING! One cannot subsist on Patti Labelle’s sweet potato pie alone. Not even if your name is James Wright and you sing like a bird. I […]
Forbidden Sandwich: Kale Pesto and Roasted Tomato Breakfast Sandwich
I’ve been thinking more about what goes into my body lately.
Celebrating National Coffee Day
It’s one of my favorite national holidays. National Coffee Day!
Breakfast of the Newly Hired—Open Faced Italian Fried Egg Sandwiches
You would have thought I would have eaten a breakfast of champions before going to my new job at Yahoo Food, right? Nope.
Wedding Wednesday: My Croissants are Your Croissants
E and I, 8:23 AM Wednesday morning.
Meerkating and Breakfast
Though I work in media, started a blog documenting my relationship and wrote a memoir slash cookbook, I am a shy person. But this blog, and being on social media and having articles written about me and my sandwiches, have helped me to not only break out of my shell a bit, but to have […]
Sandwich #297–“The Elizabeth Taylor-roska” Caviar Sandwich
Caviar for breakfast. It’s the Elizabeth Taylor way.
Sandwich #289–“Cinco De Mayo Mornings” Breakfast Burrito with Black Bean and Corn Salad, Scrambled Eggs and Peppers
Cinco de Mayo is one of my favorite holidays. I love any excuse to drink margaritas.
Sandwich #282–“E’s Sunday Breakfast” Bagel and Smoked Salmon Sandwich
I don’t like smoked salmon. But this whole 300 thing is not about me.
Holiday Breakfast: Pumpkin Pecan Scones
We have less than two weeks until Thanksgiving. Time to start planning out dinner.
Breakfast of Champions–Avocado Toast
The only thing getting me through this week is avocado toast.
Houseguest Treat: Pumpkin Banana Bread
As mentioned when E’s dad was in town, I like to have something baking in the oven when houseguests come over. When the house smells like sweetness, it takes less pressure off of me to be sweet. Just kidding.
Granola Bars That Actually Hold Together
Could it be I finally made granola bars that stuck together?
Sandwich #264–“Deadlines and Day Trips” Egg Frittata Sandwiches
When you are headed out of town, and you’re hungry, and you get a call from work which requires you to file on deadline before you leave, and you’re getting screamed at by your fiancé to “hurry up”, the only thing suitable enough for this special type of road trip lunch is a frittata sandwich.
Forbidden Sandwich #8—Open-Faced Egg Sandwich with Zucchini, Tomatoes and Avocado Mash
When you are running late for your out of town excursion and you will not be satisfied with a bag of Funyuns or a hot dog from the Gulf station on exit 73 again, you need to make a quick snack before you hit the road.
Sandwich #263–Rosemary Waffle Sandwich with Ricotta, Collard Greens and Caramelized Plums
After E and I made our second batch of homemade ricotta, I finally made brunch.
Homemade Ricotta, or The One Ingredient to Completely Turn Out Your Brunch
Goodness, why didn’t we do make our own damn ricotta earlier?
Forbidden Sandwich #7–Fried Egg, Tomato Jam and Sauteed Kale on Pita
I like kale. My fiance does not.
