Funfetti Whoopie Pies
These are probably one of the funnest cookies I’ve ever had the chance to make. I mean look at them. They obviously just scream fun. I feel as though there is a “funfetti-craze” going on right now. I’m pretty certain that every time I turn to Pinterest or some other food-type website I see […]
Chorizo Mac and Cheese
There’s not much better out there than mac and cheese. It’s so rich and comforting and perfect for a cool day. Yes, I know. It’s still August, but we were all craving some mac and cheese, so we went ahead and whipped up a batch anyway. Growing up, my dad always made the absolute […]
Tailgating Recipe Round Up
Happy Saturday Everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekends! Well, we are only a few weeks away from football, both college and professional. I’m sure that besides the game being on everyone’s minds, the food and beer is too. I mean this really is the best part. I think so at least. Today’s […]
Fresh Peach and Avocado Salsa – Tailgating Recipes Version 4
Let’s be honest, you can’t really go wrong with chips and salsa. Almost everyone loves the combo, and it’s almost always found at get togethers. I think salsa is great for a tailgate. It’s simple to make. It keeps in the refrigerator for a day or two, so you can make it a day […]
Cannoli Cream Dip – Tailgating Recipes Version 1 .0
So I decided to hit 2 birds with 1 stone with this recipe. Per my sister’s request (she’s visiting by the way), cannolis were on the menu. However, I don’t believe cannolis go very well with my theme for the week – “The Best Ever Tailgate Recipes.” Who knows if this dip even belongs […]
Thai-Style Chicken Salad
Well I haven’t been feeling 100% lately. It’s a mix of things really, but I definitely feel a sinus infection coming on. =( As a result, the last thing I feel like doing is cooking. I knew that last night’s dinner had to be something simple. Something simple enough, that Zach could take the […]
Fried Chicken Green Chili Wontons with Mango, Habanero Sauce
We’ve never actually made a fried “wonton” before. Sure, I have had my fair share of all kinds of restaurant-made wontons. I was having some serious mental blockage this week on recipe making. Sometimes this happens, just like anything else. It’s like writer’s block for home cooks. Zach helped me out with this recipe, […]
Grilled Chicken with Habanero and Orange Glaze
So Zach made this incredible habanero, honey and orange sauce while I was away in May; not that I would know that it was incredible since I didn’t get to try it, but I obviously took his word for it. We decided to have another go at it (mostly because I wanted to try […]
Portobello Fries and a Happy IPA Day!
Happy International IPA Day everyone! I feel like there is a holiday for everything these days, but this “holiday” is especially awesome because it involves beer and one of my personal favorite brew styles: the IPA. What I love about IPAs are all the sub-categories that go along with them. Good IPAs aren’t too […]
