A GREAT STEAK
This is my attempt to follow Molly Baz’s (a huge inspiration to me as a chef) “Really Great Steak” recipe, and it turned out fantastic. This was my first time cooking a steak, and to be honest, before this, I wasn’t a big steak fan, but I have been converted. Even my dad, who is a steak connoisseur, was impressed. These are the steps and ingredients that I followed to make Molly Baz’s “Really Great Steak.”
CHOCOLATE DATE CARAMEL BARS
This is a chocolatey sweet, not-so-sinful treat. Dates are naturally sweet and packed with fiber, potassium, magnesium, vitamin B6, iron, and even some protein. For a quick and easy indulgence, I love these bars.

Satisfying weekend breakfast that ticks all the nutrition boxes, this egg on toast is a go-to when you have a few extra minutes in the morning.

This delicious creamy chicken dish is a “go to” in my house. I often mix up the flavors, but I keep coming back to the mushroom and rosemary combination. It’s hearty and satisfying, but also nutritious and easy-to-make.
“HEALTHIER” BANANA MUFFINS
This easy muffin recipe is a delicious alternative to throwing out those “too-brown-to-eat” bananas.

Although it’s simple, the end result is a fresh and flavorful dish that will leave you wanting seconds.

Mole is one of my personal favorite Mexican dishes. These enchiladas are a must try if you are craving a little taste of Mexico.

This is a hearty, stick-to-your-ribs meal, packed with protein. Abuela is a very precise cook, and this is her exact process. Yes - the hard-boiled eggs go right inside the meatballs!
ARTICHOKE HEART DIP
A dip so easy to make, you wouldn’t believe how good it tastes. This is a great dip to make if you want a quick and easy snack when your’e expecting company.
MOM’S MARINARA SAUCE
