My family loves French toast, but I have passed on serving it at brunch gatherings because it requires time at the stove when I would prefer to be chatting with guests. Until now. All the prep work for our Fruit Bliss Baked French Toast is done a day in advance so all you need to do on party day is sprinkle the delicious pecan crumble on top and bake for an hour. Et voilà! Brunch is served to rave reviews. The combination of the cinnamony bread, the tangy Fruit Bliss puree, and the crunchy, nutty crumble makes this French toast...

We took our inspiration for this recipe from an Armenian soup called vospapour. It is a soup generally made with lentils, dried fruits, and walnuts, the perfect canvas for our apricots. We decided to turn the soup into a stuffing for eggplant. So we went with millet for the consistency and let the flavors take form along the spice mixture, which includes cinnamon, allspice, cayenne, cumin, and turmeric. The addition of fresh pomegranate seeds, which are in season now, takes this dish to the Holiday level! INGREDIENTS 1 cup millet, cooked according to package directions 8 small eggplants or 4...

"What’s for dinner?" my daughter asks every day. Since I am a pretty good planner, I am often ready with an answer. But other times, after a particularly busy day, I am often caught without an answer. In that case, takeout usually saves the day. But I always feel a tinge of guilt as I am placing the order. Takeout is so more expensive and less healthy than eating a decent home-cooked meal. In order to avoid the takeout trap, I have been creating and stockpiling recipes for easy to prepare, go-to dishes that I can make on a minute’s notice with ingredients...

In the hot days of summer, when a quick walk outside leaves you sweaty, there is nothing better than an icy, cold treat. The only problem is that most frozen snacks, like ice cream or even FrozeFruit bars, don’t have much to offer by way of nutritional value. Between the Greek yogurt and the milk, these pops offer a lot of calcium and protein and the dates provide a burst of juicy sweetness. If you are not a honey fan or you prefer to cut down on the sugar, they still taste great! You can also leave out the tahini, which...
