Dulce de Leche Brownies
If you are an avid Cooking and Beer reader, I know what you are thinking. I get on these dessert kicks, and I don’t know how or when to stop. I don’t know why this happens. I really don’t, but here we are, and I have a delicious brownie recipe for you. With Cinco […]
Homemade Strawberry Lemonade
You know the old saying “your eyes are bigger than your stomach?” Well, my eyes are totally bigger than my stomach. Even more so, when I go grocery shopping, I always buy more than I need. I know. It’s absolutely horrible. I just have this fear of running out of something. The mere thought […]
Strawberry and Lime Cheesecake Bars
Before this little berry season of ours comes to an end (and they are no longer on sale), I really wanted to make something super delicious with strawberries. Now, Zach hates cheesecake. I KNOW! It’s crazy. I can’t even. I don’t even know. So anyway, I made something cheesecake-inspired anyway. I thought that by […]
Chocolate Hazelnut Orange Balls
These little chocolate hazelnut orange balls (there are some dates in there too) are the perfect sweet pick-me-up. They are easy to make, quick to whip up and keep spectacularly in an airtight container. They are no-bake which is always a good thing, and they literally take 5 minutes to make. It’s the waiting […]
Grilled Sweet Potato Salad
I’ve got another picnic recipe for you today! Hey! I forewarned you that I was in a picnic mood. I can’t stop. I won’t stop. I promise I’ll bake something this weekend. I promise. It’s supposed to rain anyway, and if there’s anything that helps in getting rid of those rainy day blues, it’s […]
Tex Mex Hot Dogs with Cilantro Cream Drizzle
Now that Easter is over, all I want is picnic food. Honestly though, I crave picnic time all times of year, but it’s starting to get a little bit out of control. In the end, I just really feel bad for Zach, who will probably have to eat cold pasta and potato salads, hot […]
Green Bean Chicken Salad with Curry Vinaigrette
Is it Friday yet? Ugh, what a week it has been, and it’s only Monday! I don’t think anyone ever prepared me for what it took to clean a larger house. You grow up wanting the biggest, baddest house, but your parents fail to tell you that you will actually have to clean it! […]
Carrot Cake Whoopie Pies
I hope everyone is have a fantastic start to their weekends! I know we sure are around here. Although a bit cloudy today, we have had some spectacular weather. Temps have been in the mid 70s, and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the holiday weekend. Things are finally starting to […]
Garlicky Goat Cheese Grits
Let’s be honest with ourselves, grits have to be one of the most amazing dishes on the planet. I love them all ways, especially when they are mixed with a ton of cheese! This particular recipe just happens to be vegetarian (I know … it doesn’t happen very often) and packed with goat cheese […]
