Strawberry-Lemonade Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting


There's just something so angelic and pure about cream cheese frosting. The subtle tartness, the creamy texture, the untainted color. It's as if it just glows, don't you agree? Or maybe it's just the lighting in my apartment, but whatever. Cream cheese frosting simply makes things better.

Pizza Dough


Pizza dough is a weekly go-to in my house. My boyfriend and I just cannot say no to homemade pizzas, pizza bites, or calzones. But really, could you? The dough is cheap and easy to make and it's such a convenience to find a hunk of frozen ball of pizza dough.

Fried Shrimp Tacos with Pineapple Salsa


I'm officially declaring it SUMMER. I mean, I know it's only 105 degrees outside, but my craving for fried seafood topped with fruit salsas every other day is usually an indicator.

Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake

Spicy Pork Sliders


I am proud to say that this is a Momma Bird original recipe. I've made pork sliders a dozen times, but they've never had a chance to be publicized, probably because my boyfriend and I have always managed to inhale all of them the second they were plated. Here is finally their chance to be in the spotlight.

Banana Bread


It's simply wrong to consider this banana bread as a baked good. It's much better than just good, it's baked deliciousness.

Mini Hamburger Buns


I finally did it... I made hamburger buns! They ended up absolutely perfect. The process, however, was a bit hectic and  frustrating to be honest. BUT, I powered through and was rewarded with fresh, hot delicious mini hamburger buns.
