Treks & Bites – The Crossroads Where Food Meets Travel!
Pink Grapefruit Pomegranate Salad
We love the spectacular color and the fresh taste of pink grapefruit and when complemented with perfectly ripe avocado, it's salad perfection! And, since pomegranate seeds are just so charismatic, we decided to add a little extra flavor along with color.
Waioli Date Bars
We always called them Waioli Date Bars, because the recipe came from the Salvation Army Waoili Tea Room in Honolulu, where they were served for decades.
Cinnamon Shortbread Snowflake Cookies (Can Use as Ornaments)
Cinnamon adds a twinkly holiday twist to traditional shortbread and it smells divine baking in the oven.
Christmas Snowball Cookies
These old-fashioned traditional holiday cookies are so simple, but they somehow seem to say “Christmas!”
Brown Butter Cake
Take your cake game to a whole new level by using brown butter instead of plain butter.
Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
Shallots, pecans, and raisins caramelized in brown butter, along with brown butter and crème fraîche add the special touches for this festive sweet potato dish!
Jalapeno Lime Cranberry Sauce
It takes less than 30 minutes to make your own cranberry sauce with fresh or frozen cranberries! I've even made it before with reconstituted dried cranberries during the spring and summer months when fresh cranberries are hard to find.
Light and Fluffy (Gluten-free) Pumpkin Chiffon Pie
We also use pasteurized egg whites in place of fresh egg whites .
Buttermilk Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
This cake holds very well for a week or more in the refrigerator and makes a delightful snack for the mid-afternoon munchies! You can opt to make this cake as a 9x13 rectangular cake or as a layer cake using either two 9-inch pans or three 8-inch pans.
Mocha Cheesecake
This cheesecake is absolutely delicious! It is made with real coffee, melted dark chocolate, and Kahlua, along with a chocolate cookie crust.
