Bussanich started baking at the age of 11 because she watched the sh...

Gourmet Bailey’s Just a Bite: Dairy-Free Crepes

Who doesn’t love a good crepe? These French delicacies are a delicious, thin pancake-like pastry that can be filled with sweet and salty things alike. The one we’ll be making for this particular crepe recipe is dairy-free, but you can hardly taste the difference. Bon appetit! For these crepes you will need: 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons white sugar Pinch of salt 3 eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon oil (I recommend vegetable) 2 cups almond milk (or oat milk if allerg...

Gourmet Bailey’s Just a Bite: End of Summer Salad

As summer comes to an end, I wanted to give you all one last bite of those fresh summer flavors with one of my all-time favorite flavors. It’s easy, but just a bit time-consuming. This salad, whose recipe my uncle recently passed on to me, is usually served as a palette cleanser between the pasta and main course or as a side with your main dish. For this recipe, you’ll need to have a sharp knife so you can easily chop up your ingredients. Another handy tool is a mandolin, which will help sli...

Sweet and Salty Heaven

As we turn a new leaf over into the second half of the spring semester, I wanted to leave you all with a decadent and indulgent recipe this week: A sweet and salty variety that will be sure to satisfy your taste buds. These cookies are Gourmet Bailey’s take on a classic Peanut Butter Blossom. Instead of having a Hershey Kiss fill the center of this cookie, there is a mini Reese’s Cup in the middle. The Reese’s-filled center gives that extra oomph of saltiness to the cookie. Now onto the re...

Pasta is Always a Favorite

Growing up, my Italian family designated Sunday as our pasta day in which we were guaranteed to have pasta and eat a long family meal. So naturally, pasta is my favorite food. Not only because it reminds me of my family, but it also happens to be one of the most versatile and delicious foods. This recipe was taught to me by my aunt, Tania, who is one of the greatest cooks I know. She taught me that you shouldn’t limit pasta to penne vodka because there are infinite things you can do with it. T...

Just a Bite: Guilt-Free Snickerdoodles

Welcome back to another edition of Just a Bite: with @gourmetbailey! This recipe is one of my favorites I’ve made this fall and it is scrumptious. Although it is dairy-free and gluten-free, it is not flavor-free. This week’s recipe is for a little bite of sugary and cinnamon goodness: snickerdoodles. Snickerdoodles are one of my family’s favorites since we all love cinnamon so much. Since my family is on a bit of a health kick right now, I wanted to find a more healthier version of this re...
