Spinach Cupcakes
My son’s second birthday was coming up and I wanted to make some special cupcakes. It was a Toy Story themed party and we had the decorations up and ready. The only thing that was missing was the cake. For food we wanted to make Orion’s favourite since it was his birthday. For the cupcake…
Gamja Jorim (Korean Potato Side Dish)
I love going to a Korean restaurant and getting Gamja Jorim as one of the sides. I also found out that my kiddo loves this potato dish so I decided to give it a shot. Begin by peeling and dicing the potatoes into cubes. Heat up a pan on medium, add some oil and then…

Pear Tarte Tatin
This is french pear pie that is made using a unique technique. You start off by cooking your pears in a butter sugar sauce and then top it with the crust and bake upside down. Almost like an upside down cake. I used anjou pears since they are one of my favorite. Quarter and core…
