These crab cakes are literally amazing!! When recreating seafood, you really have to consider the texture.

This Appetizer is simple, yummy, and very easy to make. They are great to bring to any holiday party or special occasion all year round.
These garden burger burgers came out right on the first attempt which isn't that frequent in the Piper test kitchen. I normally remake my dishes a couple times just to make sure its perfect for you guys. These garden burgers are so amazing and versatile. They're great as breakfast patties, sliders, burgers, and "ground meat". I love to eat them in lettuce wraps to avoid the extra calories in bread.
These black bean burgers are a wonderful addition to your recipe collection. Not only are they absolutely delicious but they are so easy to make. They only require 3 ingredients and the basic everyday house hold spices. They are great for meal prep because they hold up wonderfully in the freezer. Give these burgers a try year round. They will not disapoint.
The best part about this recipe is that its what I like to call an assembly meal. Assembly meals are meals that can me made from ingredients used in other meals. For this recipe you will need marinara sauce, pre-made whole wheat pizza crust, kale, eggplant, and caramelized onions. Although these toppings are what I choose, keep in mind that pizzas can be topped with anything and personalized with the topping you like or simply need to get out of the fridge. This eggplant marinade is super simple to make and so delicious that it fits a wide variety or other veggies too. This recipe wont disappoint. Joe loved it and I'm sure you will too. I'd love to see your pizzas and know what you think. Comment below and tag me on social media!!

DINNER
This is the dish that made a meat eater who had never had ZUCCHINI before go back for seconds!! Joe’s cousin came over for dinner and I was pleasantly surprised at how much he loved this lasagna. As a chef I get told my meals are good all the time but often it’s by people that are vegan or into veganism in some way. Anthony was not one of those people. He was afraid to try it instantly, but after he did, he went back for another plate. I had to share recipe like this with all of you!! It’s also an excellent meal prep dish.
Being married to a pizza lover like Joe, means ensuring he gets his fix at least twice a month. Deep dish is his absolute favorite. I had to share this recipe with you guys because it is perfect.

Love is in the air and chocolate is on my mind. As we all know Valentines Day is almost here. Its a time when we can express love and appreciation for our loved ones most specifically our partners. Chocolate covered strawberries have always been a Valentines Day must for me. Even when I was single I'd just make them for myself and get comfy on the couch, watching my favorite love movies and crying my eyes out with a plate full of them.
With back to school being just around the corner and here for some ALREADY, I decided to dedicate this week to sharing helpful tips and healthy recipes to make for a smoother moring!! Everyone loves a good old waffle in the morning. This recipe is super delicious and extremely versatile. I use this recipe as meal prep in my household and my business. I make the entire recipe, bake all the waffles then freeze them to eat throughout the week. I simply pull them out of the freezer and pop them in the toaster. They are amazing and exactly what I think a busy person like you would need!!
