Homemade Cashew Nut Butter

Just 2 ingredients to make your own all-natural, very tasty and super creamy Cashew Butter.  Gluten-free, vegan, low-carb, paleo-friendly and so easy to make! 

Several months ago, Mark, my husband, went to India. When he came back, not only did he bring back my favorite spices, he also surprisingly came with about a kilo (2.2 lbs) of whole cashews!! If you know me and my family, we are such nut lovers and cashews are one of our favorites. You can imagine how happy I was when he handed me a huge bag of cashews! I have already imagined the many dishes I would make with it! :)

This is such a crazy week for us! We recently bought a home, just last week actually. We've been renting an apartment the past 2 years since we moved to New Haven, Connecticut.

Blueberry Ricotta Pound Cake

Bursting with juicy blueberries, this moist and delicious Blueberry Ricotta Pound Cake is summer's perfect cake!

I love summer season and because I was born in South East Asia where it's pretty much summer the whole year through, that is perfectly understandable. What makes summer special for me and my family is the abundance of delicious fruits that can be enjoyed in their freshest state. Certainly, one of our favorite summer fruits is the Blueberry. I resolve to myself that I will try at least one blueberry recipe once a year and enjoy these fruits while at their peak. For this season, I made some blueberry pound cake enhanced with flavors of ricotta cheese and tangy lemons. The result is indeed delicious and my kids and their friends truly loved it!
