Chocolate and Peanut Butter Pretzel Bundles
I say “bundles” because I didn’t know what else to call them. I was craving something super sweet today, so I went a little crazy. Actually, I went crazy in the form of pretzel bundles, vanilla bean cookie sandwiches and cheesecake bars (which will be up later this week). I know, it’s a good […]
Perfect Recipes for your Memorial Day Menu
Whether you are hosting a picnic or attending one, I’m sure you have some cooking to do. If you aren’t cooking, I’m sure you will be picking up something pre-made at your local grocery store. I’m here to stop you from doing this! You will be surprised at how easy and affordable it can be […]
Mini Crab Cakes with an Asian Plum Sauce
We love a good crab cake around here. I really think that a really great crab cake is hard to come by. They are so often made with too much bread (panko or some other binding agent) or sometimes it goes the complete other direction, and they aren’t made with enough of the “extras.” Extras […]
Chipotle Chicken Quesadillas … with a spicy salsa!
So in preparation for the winter weather that is headed our way, we decided we would soak up as much “grill time” as humanly possible. It’s a good thing I planted all those veggies and herbs. I’m sure they will just love the snow! Just kidding, I promise to bring them inside. Good thing I […]
The Farmstead Cheese Board
With the cheese board I decided to make today, I went with an unconventional approach and decided to throw a bunch of different cheeses together. In particular, these cheeses are a few of my favorites. I never met a cheese I didn’t like. This includes the moldy cheeses, the soft cheeses and most importantly the […]
The Mediterranean Cheese Board
So, I’ve been wanting to pair beer and cheese together for a long time. I just really haven’t had the opportunity to do so. Since Zach and I only have 4 more days left in our current home and are packing like crazy, I thought that my love of cheese boards would be the best […]
Pumpkin Corn Muffins with Honey Butter
So I get into a muffin mood every once in a while. As a result, I am always trying to find cool ways to make them. This time I decided to try out a corn muffin, mostly because not only did I want something for breakfast this week, but I thought it would be a […]
So you want to hard-boil an egg at altitude do ya?
It’s really not as easy as you think it might be. I’m sure at least once in your life you have hard-boiled or soft-boiled an egg. The difference between the two is just as it seems. Soft-boiled eggs are just cooked for less time and the yolk isn’t as hard as in hard-boiled eggs. For […]
Rosemary and Pecorino Butter Crackers
Let’s just say I have tried to make crackers before, and I’ve been completely unsuccessful. I actually think I may have burned a batch at one point. I decided to give it another go. I was a bit more successful this time around. This time I decided to incorporate some more butter and cheese and […]
