Made PB Cup Cheesecake from for my husband’s birthday weekend. So decadent, rich and absolutely worth the work and waiting for it to chill. May have had some for breakfast.
Couple of changes from the posted recipe: 1) Used regular graham cracker crumbs for the crust, 2) added 2 tbsp PB powder to amp up flavor, 3) baked 1hr 20min and then left in the closed oven (turned off) for 1hr to prevent cracking.

Why aren’t my tomatoes ripe yet?!
Tomatoes prefer temps around 75 degrees and we are in the low 60s consistently here in Northern ME. So inside to the window they come! We planted late this year and still got lots of tomatoes, just need to let them ripen so we can make sauce and preserve for the winter!

Grilled Cheese Summer Salad - aka the most delicious and satisfying salad.
I could eat this salad every single day without complaint. It comes together in under 10 min, and is somehow fresh, crunchy, sour, salty and sweet all at once. Halloumi is really the star here - it is a grill-able sheep cheese that doesn’t completely melt, so it lends the perfect chew and saltiness. Plus, how can you go wrong with crispy cheese edges?!
Halloumi cheese, diced
Cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
Green pepper, diced
Nectarine, diced
Fresh mint and basil, chopped
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper
Pan fry the halloumi in 1-2 tbsp olive oil over med-high heat for 4-6 mins, or until crispy. Combine all ingredients and toss with olive oil and vinegar, then top with salt and pepper.

San Francisco sushi spots with fresh-from-Japan-deliveries spoiled me for all others, but I still like to indulge once in a while.

Are you a fan of rhubarb?
We have a LARGE rhubarb plant on our lawn that came with the house, and despite absolutely no maintenance it has managed to thrive. I’ve never eaten rhubarb in anything except pie, but I’m determined to find new uses for it this summer to take advantage of our free produce!

Fun fact - I’m allergic to chicken. 😬 I generally sub for turkey, so we can still enjoy things like this Fried ‘Chicken’ Sandwich in the same time it takes to get drive-thru!
