I love coffee cake, but normally I just eat the topping because the cake part is usually too dry. This cake, however, was moist from top to bottom. The trick? Greek yogurt. I love the stuff! Not only do I eat it every afternoon for lunch but I absolutely love baking with it. I use…

Ginger Carrot Muffins with Dulce de Leche
As you may know from my last post, I tend to over buy fresh veggies and herbs. I am constantly throwing out bunches of cilantro, killing every basil plant I get my hands on, and trying to use shriveled up ginger roots. Well no more I say! I have recently discovered Dorot’s frozen garlic and…

All of this combined with this weekend in Sin City where I can guarantee that…
