Fig caviar tart

Fig caviar tart

I love Sunday brunches, sitting sipping on mimosas and watching the day go by. This is a easy tart, which looks like a pizza, to make for your brunch … I usually serve it as a side to scrambled eggs, or if I want to […]

One of my favorite memories of my childhood was my grandparent’s huge mission fig tree. My grandmother had made a little play area under the shade of the tree for her grandchildren. She had found a small old iron stove and put it under it […]

Asian Chicken Bites

Asian Chicken Bites

When I am preparing for an event at the winery I first find out what wines we are serving … this is a huge help in what I want to create, and figure out what ingredients. White grapes have very little tannin, red grapes have […]

Mom’s Cheesy Anaheims

Mom’s Cheesy Anaheims

Oh my goodness … this recipe is almost embarrassing; it’s so easy. Which makes sense why my mother created it … not only was she a physician, she was also a mother of four children, owned a cattle ranch, a vineyard and helped run a […]

Poached pear arugula salad with hazelnut

Poached pear arugula salad with hazelnut

My sister Carrie turned me onto the wonders of hazelnut oil and arugula. Seriously, all you have to do is mix the two together for something fun to top a sandwich or use as a side dish. Did you know that in other countries arugula […]

Crab stuffed Porties

Crab stuffed Porties

I developed this recipe for one of my dearest friends … she was new to cooking, things with bones freak her out, it had to be quick and she loves seafood and mushrooms. She wanted something fancy to make for a fella; I told her […]

Firecracker shrimp

Firecracker shrimp

These appetizers get their name from the fact when they are fried they look like an old-fashioned firecracker. I’ve been making these for a while, especially once my nieces discovered that they loved shrimp. Now the pairing with the Taco Shop Avocado Sauce https://auntmomos.com/taco-shop-avocado-sauce/ was a […]
