Chocolate Chip Cookies

October 15, 2016 by It's Cooking With Magda

This is the only chocolate chip cookie recipe you will ever need. These cookies are crunchy on the edges but soft in the center with lots of melted chocolate oozing when you take a first bite! Our family’s favorite! It’s been forever since my last post but I have been so busy with everyday life. Between kids and work there is very little time left for my blog. I have been baking quite a bit though but it usually happens […]

Delicious, crunchy and full of flavor Greek Zucchini Fritters are my suggestion for an easy summer dinner!This past weekend our older boy turned 9 and his dreams finally came true when he got a bmx bike! He was hoping he would get it since he had been asking for it for over a year. What he didn’t expect was this giant gummy bear that weighs 5 pounds! It was a complete surprise. He saw a video about it on youtube probably […]

September 18, 2015 by It's Cooking With Magda

Keep the summer a bit longer with this classic salad. There is something so special about the combination of ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs and crunchy bread brought together by a sweet and tangy dressing. It will become your favorite, too!School is in a full swing here but I still feel like I’m behind with many things. Now that both my boys go to the same school (3rd grade and Kindergarten) it should be easier. But it’s not. Getting everyone ready […]

Farfalle with Cauliflower, Saffron and Parmesan Cheese

April 15, 2015 by It's Cooking With Magda

Here is another often requested recipe at my house. Pasta mixed with tender cauliflower florets, dried blueberries, crunchy sunflower seeds and cheese! I have been making this pasta dish for the last 12 years or so. I found this recipe in one of the Williams-Sonoma cookbooks, called “Pasta” and I believe it was one of the first cookbooks I ever got for myself. That’s mostly where I learned how to cook from. I think I own about 15 cookbooks just […]
