Steak Tacos with Avocado & Cucumber Salsa
We love steak and we don’t eat it very often. Sad, right? I think it’s sad at least. I originally wanted to make duck tacos for this recipe because duck is absolutely awesome, but I could not pass up the rib-eyes I saw staring me in the face the other day (a lot of foods […]
Brown Butter Rhubarb Cookie Bars
I feel like rhubarb often gets the pushed aside. It’s often looked over in the grocery store, and I bet you that many people don’t even know what it is. While I was grocery shopping the other day, I saw some rhubarb stalks just staring me in the face. Literally they were staring me down, […]
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 […]
BLT Soup
Yup, that’s right you heard me…BLT soup. This soup was divine, just divine. It’s everything you could want in a BLT sandwich, but in the form of a soup, and it was just delicious. Did I mention it was divine? Well it was…if you were wondering. So anyway, it’s been kind of rainy here lately. […]
Cornmeal Crusted Catfish with Mango Salsa
I’m obsessed with my southwestern-style cookbook here lately. I feel like it’s my go-to book when I’m having mental blockage on recipe-making. Last night I decided to adapt one recipe that I’ve been wanting to make ever since I picked up this amazing cookbook. In their recipe, they used roughy. I don’t know how you […]
Bacon and Cheese Grits
Grits have to be one of the most magical foods on the planet. That’s right, magical is really the only word to describe them. They are especially magical when you pack them full of cheese and bacon =), and that is just what we did! You seriously can not go wrong with the amazingness that […]
Apple Cinnamon Roll Muffins
These are a “I made them for no other reason than I was really craving a cinnamon roll” muffin. Do you ever just wake up and you are craving something that you usually don’t crave? I blame it on a night of consuming a couple of more beers than normal. This action always seems to […]
Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Kara came to town! Yay! If you all are wondering, Kara is my sister and she’s super cool (sometimes). She has quite the sweet tooth so I had to whip her up something extra special yesterday for her arrival. We celebrated with roasted chicken and carrots, but the dessert was the best part. So great […]
