Maamoul Baking Memories Eid is around the corner, so I thought Maamoul would be the perfect way to start off the holiday. Growing up, my mom used to make Eid a big thing. Living in America, we didn’t get the same Ramadan and Eid Vibes as those living overseas. Especially when my parents first came […]
Kabseh, Kabsa, Machboos
Growing up I was always the kid in the family that preferred home cooked food over fast food. If you were to ask one of my siblings whether they wanted rice and chicken at home or Chick-fil-A, they would almost always choose Chick-fil-A. For me, a home cooked meal beats anything you can buy. Not […]
Creamy Rice Pudding
Pudding is the best way to get kids to eat something. Personally, I have never really been a milk person. I was the kid who ate the cereal and left the milk. My sister and I used to have milk competitions so she could encourage me to drink more milk. Even as an adult, I […]
Arugula Salad
I’ve got this thing for arugula. I absolutely love the peppery kick to it. It makes a great add-in to salads, and I’m obsessed with it in sandwiches. My mom makes this amazing arugula salad that is just out of this world. Every time I go visit home I beg her to make it. Everyone in […]
Chicken Tortilla Soup
I’m not a soup person. Whenever I would get sick my mom would have to beg me to eat chicken soup. She would keep telling me that I would get better so much faster. She never really was able to convince me. My uncle’s wife used to make this soup when I was growing up. […]
Mint Lemonade
Ramadan is the best time to make this Mint Lemonade. Being Arab, Mint is a staple at in almost every household. Almost every house will have either mint growing outside in a little garden or have a little pot out on the porch. We love to throw it in salads, stuffings, dry it for seasoning, […]
Chicken Curry
I’ve never really been a huge fan of Indian food. I love spices, but most of the Indian food that I have had wasn’t spiced correctly. Whenever we used to go to Jordan in the summer, there was a hole in the wall Indian place that had the BEST grilled chicken tikka! And that sauce was to die for. […]
Strawberry Nutella Puff Pastry
Puff pastry is one of my favorite things in the world. It’s just so versatile. You can keep it in the freezer and make something quick with it when you need to. It works great with savory or sweet and is even good with just a simple dusting of powdered sugar and a cup of […]
Tres Leches Cake
Tres Leches Cake is one of my absolute favorite cakes. I remember the first time I ever made this cake was my senior year of college. I was obsessed with The Pioneer Woman, and I happened to stumble along this recipe. Her description of Tres Leches Cake literally made me drool. I knew I just […]
Coconut Hareesa Cake – Super Moist and Super Simple
As kids, we used to go to my Tata’s house every Friday. It was an absolute must. She used to make a bunch of different things for dinner and set up two tables, one for the adults and one for the kids. Of course, the adult table had all the yummy food in my opinion. […]
