Our family enjoys Chicken Soup during harsh winters, but Lizzie and I wanted to jazz up our regular recipe.  We had a lot of fun creating Lemon Harvest Soup, and we hope you enjoy it too.  The recipe is quite versatile; change lentils for barley, add shredded or chunked chicken breast, replace chicken meat and […]

As the chilly winter weather sets in, soups are a common meal in our home.  The other day I realized I was getting a little burned out on soup dinners and thought for a moment — what can I create that’s fast and filling?  For some reason, I recalled Lizzie’s BBQ Beef video http://lizziemariecuisine.com/index.php?itemid=381 and took […]

At the recent Taste of Atlanta event, I tasted many delicious foods.  One of those was Duck Confit served Asian style.  It was the first time I tried it and it was spectacular!  There were lo mein noodles and pieces of sautéed broccoli, carrot and yellow bell pepper.  The duck itself was tender and savory.  It […]

One of the many things Lizzie and I enjoy about shopping at the local Harry’s Farmers Market (owned by Whole Foods), is the type of conversations we have with fellow shoppers standing in the checkout lane.  Recently, the gentleman standing behind us loaded several cans of whole tomatoes, garlic, onions, and ravioli at the register.  […]

Lizzie and I recently taught a 6-week healthy living class in our community to coach parents and kids on how to create healthier lifestyles.  During our graduation class, we hosted a Healthy Food Fest where all participants brought in a healthy food item to share with the class.  Everyone made excellent choices.
Our food demonstration was Taco […]

Lizzie and I became inspired to create our own version of creepy finger cookies after seeing a post by a fellow foodie. We had a lot of fun using a simple butter cookie recipe that we rolled into 3 inch “fingers.” Add the knuckle detail with tines of a fork. Blanched almonds created fingernails, and […]

After attending a class at Williams-Sonoma last year, Lizzie decided to recreate Spiderweb Cupcakes at home.  She had a lot of fun experimenting with pastry tips when applying the frosting web.  A delicious hands-on time is sure to be had!
Watch Lizzie’s step-by-step video and get creative with your kids this Fall season!

Looking for a super simple, fast, healthy snack?  Have some fun creating PBJ Sushi Rolls!  I prefer to use almond butter instead of peanut butter because almond butter has an amazing flavor.  Try to find “No Stir” almond butter, which is a lot less messy than regular almond butter.  The almond oil rises to the […]
