Roasted Red Pepper Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs are a great appetizer for any party, but when you have guests that aren’t a big fan of mayo or mustard you have to brainstorm for some alternatives.  Swapping the mayo for greek yogurt and changing the flavor profile to give it more of a mediteranead flare solves this issue.  In this recipe …

Coconut Cake

Crazy for coconut?  I am!  This is the ultimate coconut cake, from the coconut cream cheese frosting topped with shredded coconut all the way down to the coconut flour used in the cake.  You could serve this cake any season, but it feels especially festive in the winter because it’s reminiscent of a snowball.  So …
