Triple-Chocolate Stout Loaf Cake
For the past two years, baking cakes and I have not gotten along; like whole cakes, not cupcakes. Cupcakes have always worked perfectly. I think it’s because of their “itty-bittyness.” It took me almost 2 years to finally perfect baking cakes at high altitude (btw I live in Colorado, if you didn’t know already). […]
Chicken and Lemon Orzo Soup
I hope everyone had a FABULOUS weekend. It was gorgeous here in Colorado. It was sunny and in the 70s. The peaks were covered in snow, and it was one of the best views of the Front Range I’ve seen in quite a while. I pretty much spent my Sunday packing some things up […]
Homemade Soft Pretzels with Spicy Beer Cheese Sauce
Try something new, and make your own pretzels instead of buying them. You will be surprised at how easy they can be to make, and you will get the hang of it in no time at all!
Avocado, Goat Cheese and Sausage Puff Pastry Pockets
As Zach and I prepare to move, I keep coming to the realization that I have an insane amount of work to do. If there is one thing I hate in this world (besides my piece of crap electric stove), it’s packing and moving…oh and unpacking. I hate that too. Since we are about […]
Peanut Butter Cup Skillet Cookie
Maybe it’s the cool temperatures that have me craving so many sweets lately. I can’t keep my hands off of them! Although, I should mention that it is quite beautiful here today in Colorado: 65 degrees and sunny. Just so you know, I made this over the weekend, when it was 10 degrees. I […]
Goat Cheese Beer Biscuits
Here is another instance where I decided to cook with beer. I know! That’s twice in one week! I don’t know what to make of this, but let’s just go with it. This won’t become a common occurrence by any means, but it’s fun to go crazy once in a while. So anyway, as […]
Bacon and Kale Egg Muffins
I have a small confession to make, I don’t LOVE kale. Sure, I’ll eat it, and I do often cook with it; but all by itself, I could live without. I do enjoy it in the occasional smoothie, when it’s pulverized. I also enjoy it in these egg muffins. Kale adds that freshness you […]
Bacon and Cheese Savory Muffins with Honey Butter
I have just four little words for you today: Thank God It’s Friday. I have never been more excited for the weekend to be here. It’s not that I have any special plans. Actually, I have no plans. I just want to stay out of the kitchen and relax. With our move just about […]
Burrata BLT with Spicy Mayo
BLTs are one of my favorite comfort foods of all time. What makes them so different from other comfort foods is that they can be whipped up in no time. This, I love. This is my fun spin on a traditional BLT. I am OBSESSED with burrata lately. When it comes to cheese, it’s […]
