Pretzel Bites with Homemade Honey Mustard
There are few things more satisfying than a really great homemade soft pretzel. After our backpacking trip, I was craving just about everything in the book (that wasn’t Annie’s Mac and Cheese — this is basically what I ate for 3 nights straight). For some odd reason, pretzels came into my mind. I knew, […]
Roasted Tomatillo and Garlic Salsa
Let’s be honest, salsas are awesome. Some may even say they are the perfect snack. Well, maybe I just think they are the perfect snack. I think that is reason enough though don’t you think? They are fresh, crisp and refreshing: perfect for a hot Summer day. We go through them like water around […]
Vanilla Bean Baked French Toast
First of all, I would like to mention that I am currently writing from beautiful Breckenridge, CO. I love it here. If there were more job opportunities for my beau here, you better believe we would move to the area in a heartbeat. Jealous yet?? I definitely would be, but for the sake of […]
Chicken and Fresh Veggie Omelette
We don’t do omelettes very often around here, and I think the main reason is because we don’t do breakfast as much as I would like to. We of course do breakfast for dinner quite a bit, but this usually consists of something like pancakes or french toast doused in syrup. You can’t go […]
The Biggest, Fluffiest, Sweetest Dinner Rolls…Ever!
So the idea behind this recipe was to use these rolls for our Buffalo Turkey Meatball Sliders, and we did in fact use these rolls for that recipe. I wanted to make a sweeter-type dinner roll to help out the spiciness of the meatballs. The rolls didn’t come out EXACTLY how I had planned. […]
Buffalo Turkey Meatball Sliders with Celery Salad
Ok so maybe it’s not 100% the healthiest version of buffalo chicken wings, but the attempt was totally there. It’s actually kind of difficult to get a “healthy” buffalo sauce, especially when there is a stick of butter involved. At least this is a SOMEWHAT healthier version of a fan favorite. I love using […]
Butter Crunch Trail Mix
With all of this talk of hiking, backpacking and so forth (I really think it’s all I’ve been talking about for the past week — I’m so sorry if this is boring to you), I found it 100% fitting to share a trail mix recipe. Trail mix can get boring; like super, super boring. […]
Vanilla Bean and Almond Biscotti
So our air conditioner broke, and it sucks. I had a conversation with my mom this morning about how to keep the house cool until it can be fixed, and she 100% advised me not to turn the oven on. Well, moms know best for sure, and I should have taken her advice. The […]
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Stuffed Krispie Treats
Oh and there’s some caramel (and maybe some sea salt) involved too, but I decided to stop there. For a split second, I though about maybe, possibly dipping them in a chocolate/peanut butter mixture, but that may have been taking it a bit too far. They are sweet…just a tad sweet (no, I’m kidding…they […]
