Chef Resha

As promised, here’s the second chocolate-for-breakfast variation…waffles! Waffles are heavenly creations, with pockets for butter…and syrup. YAAAAS!

Who says you can’t have chocolate for breakfast? Whoever said that, they lied. We’re adults, so we’re going to eat whatever the hell we want for breakfast..hmph! I’ve got 2 chocolatey breakfast treats for you — stay tuned for the very next post.

Before you freak out and automatically assume you cannot possibly make this delicious bounty of all-American greatness, just hear me out. I am not an awesome pie-maker. It’s one of the things I kinda steer clear from because I know how much “technique” is involved, and its so easy to screw up despite how seemingly simple it is…right?

Chicken Canzanese…pronounced “can-zan-ay-zee” is an incredible Italian braised chicken dish that you need to keep in your culinary rolodex. I can’t really tell you how many times I’ve made this dish, because I’ve lost count. This is so delicious, you guys. It’s so very flavorful and easy to do.

Another cheesecake recipe 😀 Back to back to baaack. This one is also equally incredible. Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a huge fan of anything vanilla based. It’s such a powerful, potent, yet delicate flavor that I simply cannot get enough of. This cheesecake embodies everything that is right within the world. It’s tall, it’s thick, it’s rich, it’s creamy, and it’s easy to do. I sound like I’m describing a Hollywood housewife…

Hello, Spring! What better way to ring in the warm breezy weather than with a super luscious bite of creamy meyer lemon cheesecake topped with deliciously sweet and perfectly tart meyer lemon curd?? I bet you can’t think of another way…I’ll wait.

I’m gonna need for you file Key Lime Everything under “Things Resha Needs For Survival”, ok? Just do that for me and you’ll begin to understand me a little better as a person lol. I loooooooove key lime everything! It’s so good *drools*. I can’t remember when I first got a taste of key lime pie, but I do remember instantly falling in love and never wanting to go a summer without it. I’ve been successful for many years, as key lime “something” is part of my summer eating regimen. I’ll post a recipe for a classic key lime pie soon, but for now — check out these bars…

I’ve been using an incredibly incompetent food processor by Black & Decker for about 4 years now. It quickly went from good to bad, fast. I just figured I’d put up with it for as long as I could before I voted on a new one. Well, that time has come. I recently said “To hell with this raggedy ass food processor” after trying to do something as simple as creating pizza dough, and it couldn’t even do that without stalling! I immediately began doing price research for the KitchenAid 750 12 Cup Food Processor — which is highly favored among many people in the culinary world that I trust. I’ve wanted this machine for a very long time, but it was also technically discontinued. Womp. However, the last few that are floating around are still going for $150 to $200 dollars. We’re in a recession…I wanted this food processor, but I wasn’t about to spend that much for it right now (although I knew it’d be worth it). I simply didn’t have that kinda money set aside for a food processor, and this was an impulse buy lol. I needed this machine now and I needed it fast.

If you really wanna kick your grilled steak or chicken up a few notches, drizzle this delicious and super sexy concoction of herbal greatness over your dish and watch your tastebuds dance. When grilled meats meet chimichurri, it’s a match made in culinary heaven. So delicious and super easy to make.

Throw away all of your banana bread recipes, this one is a keeper.
