May 7, 2016 by It's Cooking With Magda

Tropical Fruit Salad with cute, heart-shaped coconut meringues will be a perfect addition to Mother’s Day brunch! A Mother’s Love A Mother’s love is something That no one can explain, It is made of deep devotion And of sacrifice and pain, It is endless and unselfish And enduring come what may For nothing can destroy it Or take that love away… It is patient and forgiving When all others are forsaking, And it never fails or falters Even though the […]

Artichoke and Smoked Salmon Quiche

May 6, 2016 by It's Cooking With Magda

Celebrate this upcoming Mother’s Day with your loved ones and some delicious food. This quiche can be made ahead of time so the special day can be work-free! Mother’s Day is approaching fast and I wanted to have something special on my blog.

Marta’s Meyer Lemon Meringue Tart

March 24, 2015 by It's Cooking With Magda

This tart strikes a perfect balance between sweet and lemony. Crisp dough, tangy filling and sweet meringue for a perfect bite each time. Today is my sister Marta’s birthday.
