Arugula Salad

Arugula Salad
roasted cauliflower, and chickpeas, with lemon pasta and arugula
This arugula salad, is filled with fresh flavors.  A hint of sweet with corn and peas. A salty kick of roasted chickpeas, and a crunch of cauliflower.  Over a nutritional bed of peppery fresh arugula.  

All these flavors together make for the perfect, fresh, flavorful, and colorful salad.

I used this salad as a lunch entree, but it could easily be a side to a delicious dinner, or a midday snack in a small portion.  You could also add a protein such as chicken, or fish to make it a more filling meal.

La Mar by Gaston Acurio and the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Brickell Key// Downtown Miami This Friday, the Living and Learning Community (LLC), had our final lunch with the Culinary Dean.  Our Resident Assistant, Ciara, planned one of these lunches each term so we could talk to Dean Ozga, about the school, internships, and of course food.  These lunches were a great networking opportunity to make a special connection with the Dean, as well as meet the Executive Chefs, at many nice restaurants.  Below is a summary video with pictures of the hotel property, restaurant, and food! This term we went to La Mar by Gaston Acurio.  This is a fine dining restaurant that is apart of a luxury hotel, Mandarin Oriental Miami. The restaurant is based on Peruvian Cuisine, with a touch of gastronomy.  The Executive Chef, Gaston Acurio has 40 restaurants in 12 countries, as well as a chocolate shop.  "The Acuorio Organization is leading the Peruvian culinary revolution."   In 2005,

NoMad: One Michelin Star

Image
NoMad: A One Michelin Star Resturant NoMad is owned and operated by the famous chef Daniel Humm, if that name didn't ring a bell then "Eleven Madison Park" should.  Daniel Humm is the Executive Chef and owner of these two restaurants. Eleven Madison Park was ranked as the #1 restaurant on the 50 best list for many years.  NoMad is an abbreviated way of saying "North of Madison Park."  This would be because NoMad is quite literally just north of the original restaurant that's located in Madison Square Park in New York City. NoMad opened in 2012 as apart of the NoMad Hotel, but I won't get into the hotel details, however, it is utterly beautiful.  If you're interested in more information about the hotel, restaurant, or reservations  click here. I had my experience at NoMad during a day trip to New York where I ate at multiple restaurants, so as a result, I didn't order a ton of food.  The menu is organized into sections labeled as; Snacks, App

Blueberry Bundt Cake!

Image
Blueberry Bundt Cake! This past Sunday I made a delicious buttermilk blueberry bundt cake.  It was absolutely delicious and light and fluffy as well. The buttermilk in this recipe definitely makes the cakes.  (full recipe at the bottom of the page) It was quick and super simple.  Most of the ingredients you'll already have around the house, and, its only 10 ingredients.  I suggest freezing the blueberries before hand.  It stops them from sinking, and is super convenient if you're berries are about to go bad and you want to save them!  The active time was only 20 minutes, however it does have to bake for about 40 minutes, but it's definitely worth the wait! This cake was a family favorite and everyone ate it right up!  It only lasted 2 days in my house, and it makes about 12 pieces! Click Below For The Recipe ↓↓↓↓↓ Blueberry Bundt Cake Recipe!

Chocolate Lovers Dream

Extreme Chocolate Cake I live in a house of chocolate lovers, we firmly believe there is no such thing as too much chocolate.  So when my moms birthday rolled around and she said she wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting.  What else is there to do but to take it to the absolute extreme.  And now we're here; the  Extreme Chocolate Lovers Cake. I'm not going to post the whole recipe I used for this cake.  You can simply use your favorite chocolate cake mix for this.  A tip: Anytime you're making chocolate cake if the recipe calls for water replace it with coffee.  Coffee brings out the chocolaty flavor.  This won't make the cake taste like coffee, just enhance the other flavors.  You can also add a shot of Kahlua into any chocolate cake for the same results.   So go ahead and make your favorite chocolate cake recipe and allow the cakes to cool, and then frost them.  I used a basic chocolate buttercream frosting, but just like the cake, if you alrea
