Delicious Frozen Hot Chocolate Recipes
Are you snowed in? I’ve heard all over the place recently about the rampant snowstorms keeping parts of the US snowed in for days. Can I remind you again how much I love tropical weather? It’s been in the 80’s recently, though much cooler than most Costa Rican summers. February hasn’t been filled with nearly…
Chunky Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love thick, chewy chocolate chip cookies with a crisp outside and soft inside. I’m not one for crispy chocolate chippers, but I’d never turn down any chocolate chip cookie. Anybody with me? There’s just something so satisfying about that crunch as you sink your teeth into a soft, brown sugar laden chunky chocolate chip…
Mango Coconut Chia Pudding
Remember Chia Pets? As a kid, I always wanted one of those sprouting pottery animals. Who knew that the chia “fur” they were growing was actually nutritious? I checked out Amazon today and sure enough, found my new Chia Pet crush. Chia pudding is made from those same chia seeds. When the chia seeds are…
Pancake Recipe Roundup
I love pancake breakfasts. We get out of bed early around these parts since both my babies are keen to bright and early 6 a.m. wake ups. I’ll be the first to admit I’m a morning person and would much rather get up early than go to bed late, but even I struggle to function…

For both of these reasons, I came up with a quick and delicious solution- a three-ingredient simple peppermint mocha. This peppermint mocha has all…
Superbowl Party Dips
What’s a Superbowl party without all-American dips? Even here in Costa Rica we know how to do game day right with a big bag of chips and a few bowls of hearty dips. Now, I’ve got to be honest with you. I don’t really watch the game. I go to Superbowl parties for the food….
Tropical Green Smoothie Recipes
I only recently jumped on the green smoothie bandwagon and was deliciously surprised.The abundance of tropical fruits here in Costa Rica lend lots of flavor options for tropical green smoothie recipes. I’ve always chowed down on fruits and vegetables, but childhood V8 Juice-related traumas meant that until recently, veggies weren’t invited to the elite fruits-only…
Quick Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
Warm, gooey cinnamon rolls are one of my favorite breakfast foods. In university I baked my first batch while living in the dorms with three other girls. Once those pillow-soft rolls with tangy cream cheese frosting met my lips, I knew my roomies would not be offered the pleasure of sampling. Selfish, I know, but…
