I just got back from a trip to Barcelona, and if there’s one thing that’s stayed on my mind (besides the sun and cava), it’s the Patatas Bravas I tried during a food tour. Golden, crisp potatoes served hot and crackly, with smoky tomato sauce and sometimes creamy aioli.

The very first thing I ate when I arrived in Split, Croatia was this unassuming flat pie called Soparnik. Served as an appetizer, it looked simple—but then I bit into it, and I was hooked.

There’s nothing like a breezy beach house dinner, and this Lemon Herb Baked Flounder brings all those fresh, laid-back vibes straight to the table. It's light, flaky, and seasoned just enough to let the sweet, delicate flavor of the fish shine. Perfect for a cozy meal after a long day at the shore.

It’s soft, spiced, and warm, with just the right amount of natural sweetness from applesauce and maple syrup. Stir everything in one bowl, pour it into a baking dish, and pop it in the oven. That’s it.

These Cherry Almond Crumble Bars are my go-to when I want something fruity, chewy, and just a little nutty. The almond crumble topping pairs perfectly with the jammy cherry center, making each bite sweet, tart, and totally addictive.

These Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwiches are what warm-weather dreams are made of. Think tender biscuit-style cookies hugging vanilla bean ice cream and juicy macerated strawberries. They're nostalgic, fresh, and just fancy enough to impress your friends—but secretly easy to make!

There’s banana bread, and then there are these Brown Butter Banana Bread Blondies. Chewy, gooey, and packed with caramelized banana flavor and nutty brown butter, these bars are my go-to when I want something indulgent and comforting that still feels homemade and nostalgic. Plus, no mixer required!

If you love all things crispy, cheesy, and bacon-y, these Irish-inspired potato bites are for you! They’re the perfect party snack, game-day treat, or St. Patrick’s Day favorite. Serve them with sour cream or a tangy mustard dip for the ultimate indulgence.

Barmbrack is a traditional Irish fruit loaf that’s often enjoyed with butter and tea. This slightly sweet bread is packed with raisins and dried fruits that have been soaked in strong tea, giving it an incredibly rich and moist texture.

If you’ve never made soda bread before, you’re in for a treat! This Cheddar & Chive Irish Soda Bread is incredibly simple to whip up—no yeast, no rising time, just mix, shape, and bake! The tangy buttermilk and sharp cheddar create a flavorful, tender crumb, while the chives add a fresh, aromatic touch. Serve it warm with butter, alongside soup, or as a snack on its own!

Savor the delectable flavors and irresistible crunch of these protein-packed chickpeas, seasoned to perfection with a tantalizing blend of spices.
