I enjoy cereal and oatmeal for breakfast but sometimes the usual morning grub gets boring. I don’t always have time to prepare an omelet and I don’t like grabbing breakfast bars on the go. I find that the bars are never as satisfying as a home-cooked meal and always leave me hungry by 11:00 am. This recipe is great since it’s easy and can be prepared in advance. You freeze it and simply reheat it on your way out the door.
I recently turned 27 and realized that there are two things everyone should know how to do: 1) Ride a bike and 2) How to poach an egg. Until this morning I didn’t know how to do either. I’m too scared of falling to get on a bike, but cooking mishaps don’t faze me. So, today I googled “how to poach an egg” and decided to give it a go.
My first attempt failed miserably. I didn’t wait for the water to reach the almost boiling point, so when I removed the egg from the pot it was a slimy mess (the water was not hot enough for the whites to cook). I paused for a moment and considered having a bowl of cereal, but then decided that I really needed to update the site with a new post and I was really craving an egg. So, I gave it another shot. This time, I was careful to wait for the water to be the perfect temperature before gently lowering the egg into the pot (it has to reach the point of almost boiling – not actual boiling, but right before it boils). I was scared to lift the lid for fear of finding another fail, but this time it was perfect! I got me a poached egg.
When I am not running late, this is the dish with which I like to start off my day. There is nothing as satisfying as a light and fluffy omelet filled with sweet red pepper and salty feta cheese. I am obsessed with cilantro and the flavor works wonderfully with the pepper and cheese. Serve the omelet with sliced avocado or create the ultimate breakfast burrito by serving it in a wrap with some salsa and guacamole.
It’s quick and tasty recipes like this that get me in the kitchen! This recipe is easy, yet super flavorful. If you are looking for the perfect crunchy fried chicken, then you have found it right here.

These blintzes are made up of light and fluffy crepes with a thick filling of cheese that make them delicious and impossible to stop at just one.

Ingredients for Cheese Batter:
4 containers of cottage cheese

Repeat until all blintzes are formed. Heat up a frying pan and cook the blintzes. Serve with jam or sour cream.
My mom’s got the best brownies on the block. It’s one of the reasons I don’t dread Pesach, I know there will be something delicious to nosh on. My sister Rivky has taken my holiday favorite and created something even more decadent with it. This cheesecake brownie is so amazing, you will want to make it all year round!
