The Diner Stack
Two pancake recipes: A basic one that uses the stand mixer, and a multigrain pancake that includes oats, wheat germ and buckwheat.
Love Takes Time
A lovingly crafted Valentine's Day meal of cannelloni with slow-cooked ragu bolognese, fresh pasta, and homemade oatmeal-buttermilk rolls twisted into love knots.
I Need Help
Brown and white food may not be the healthiest, but it is so yummy. A veritable landslide of dichromatic meals, from pastas to baked goods to breakfast, with a finale of saffron-yellow fettuccine and leek…
Oatmeal Carmelitas
A favorite bar cookie with oatmeal and walnuts for crunch, oozing caramel and melty chocolate.
Poifect
The perfect apple crumb pie, redolent of cinnamon and with just the right levels of crunch and tenderness.
