Lemon Blueberry Dutch Baby

A Dutch baby is one of my favorite weekend breakfasts. An airy, popover-type pancake (without all the flipping) made in the oven. Like a giant popover, this baby comes out of the oven all puffed up.  Each Dutch baby has its own look depending how it poofs and settles, but one […]

Avocado Toasts

I was at a recent brunch and tried an entrée I usually overlook. Avocado Toast. Sure I like avocados, but this idea just seemed too simple or potentially bland.
