New York Vanilla Bean Cheesecake with Fresh Strawberries

Another cheesecake recipe 😀 Back to back to baaack. This one is also equally incredible. Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a huge fan of anything vanilla based. It’s such a powerful, potent, yet delicate flavor that I simply cannot get enough of. This cheesecake embodies everything that is right within the world. It’s tall, it’s thick, it’s rich, it’s creamy, and it’s easy to do. I sound like I’m describing a Hollywood housewife…

Key Lime Bars

I’m gonna need for you file Key Lime Everything under “Things Resha Needs For Survival”, ok? Just do that for me and you’ll begin to understand me a little better as a person lol. I loooooooove key lime everything! It’s so good *drools*. I can’t remember when I first got a taste of key lime pie, but I do remember instantly falling in love and never wanting to go a summer without it. I’ve been successful for many years, as key lime “something” is part of my summer eating regimen. I’ll post a recipe for a classic key lime pie soon, but for now — check out these bars…

A Pink Nightmare

I’ve been using an incredibly incompetent food processor by Black & Decker for about 4 years now. It quickly went from good to bad, fast. I just figured I’d put up with it for as long as I could before I voted on a new one. Well, that time has come. I recently said “To hell with this raggedy ass food processor” after trying to do something as simple as creating pizza dough, and it couldn’t even do that without stalling! I immediately began doing price research for the KitchenAid 750 12 Cup Food Processor — which is highly favored among many people in the culinary world that I trust. I’ve wanted this machine for a very long time, but it was also technically discontinued. Womp. However, the last few that are floating around are still going for $150 to $200 dollars. We’re in a recession…I wanted this food processor, but I wasn’t about to spend that much for it right now (although I knew it’d be worth it). I simply didn’t have that kinda money set aside for a food processor, and this was an impulse buy lol. I needed this machine now and I needed it fast.

Thin Crust Pizza

Aside from tacos, my other food addiction is pizza. I grew up on the stuff. It’s like a drug. I want it all the time. Who doesn’t love the stuff?? Never in a million years did I think I’d be able to get a thin crust pizza out of my oven that looked like something you’d get from an actual professional pizza parlor with a 1400degree oven. I was wrong — so very wrong.
