These are essentially a cookie. So, I’d never suggest eating these for breakfast on a daily basis. But, one small bar on rare occasions makes a nice breakfast treat. Add a banana and a small vanilla yogurt. And, you’ve got a real breakfast. Sure, it’s not one you’d want to […]
Masa Real
Don’t ask me to explain the name. I’m told it has no real (ha! real… oh, nevermind I’m tired) translation. But, make no mistake. This is one of the best things you’ll ever put in your mouth. Seriously.

I’m not Irish. So, I didn’t feel one ounce of guilt about turning this into a sweet bread. I am, however, Italian. So, ok maybe… just maybe. There was one little itty bitty baby ounce of guilt. It’s not at all traditional. But, this sweetened soda bread was a big […]
