Cooking is fun. Eating is funner. I cook, photograph and write these recipes.
Everything I post on this blog I make from scratch using fresh wholesome ingredients.. I've been cooking since I was a little kid.
My recipes are based on trial and error, along with studying cookbooks, family recipes, blogs and cooking shows.
Some of the veggies and herbs I use are grown in my garden. Yay sustainability!
I'm working on making my yard into an edible landscape. It's really fun to go out in the garden and pick your veggies for dinner!
Pistachio Cranberry Snowball Cookies
I also made these pistachio snowball cookies yesterday. These cookies are based on my Nana’s almond snowball cookies, but I swapped out the almonds for my favorite nuts, pistachios, and added 1/2 cup dried cranberries to give it a Christmasy color scheme.
In a food processor combine 3/4 cup organic powdered sugar, 1 cup organic butter, 1 tsp salt and pulse till combined. Add 1 cup ground pistachios, 1/2 cup dried cranberries and pulse a few times until combined. Now add 2 cups organic all purpose flour and pulse just a few times just until combined. Do not over process the dough.
Place onto a floured work surface and press it together. Form the dough into a log, cover with plastic wrap, and place it in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Heat oven to 350.
Cut the log into small squares and roll around into balls. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes until cooked.
Dust with powdered sugar on all sides.
Merry Christmas!
