Penne with Mushroom Cream Sauce
This penne with mushroom cream sauce is one of those glorious recipes I have saved for all of you to enjoy while we are on our little road trip. At this time, I’m sure I’ll be basking in the beauty that is Wyoming and hopefully I’m having a fabulous time! Don’t worry, I’ll fill […]
Labor Day Picnic Round Up
As Summer draws to a close (kind of — we still have a little less than a month left), Labor Day is like the “last hurrah” for most of us. It allows for one last “event” to celebrate all things Summer. I personally love Labor Day, and it’s not just because my birthday SOMETIMES […]
Chopped Salad with Garlic and Honey Vinaigrette
Well, to put things lightly, we’ve been eating a lot of crap lately. I mean I love cheese and pulled pork and cookies and so on, but sometimes it just gets to be too much. I could even feel the “weight on my shoulders” this morning on my run, and trust me, it was […]
BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza
Please don’t judge me. I know, I know…pulled pork once again. What can I say? There are literally only two of us living here (if you don’t count Cilantro — we try to keep him as far from people food as we possible can). A pork shoulder goes a LONG way, and it’s not […]
Pulled Pork Hot Dogs with Broccoli Slaw
So we’ve decided to go back down this lovely road called “pulled pork road” once again. We had a pork shoulder just hanging out in the freezer, so it was about that time. The problem with trying to feed two people with one pork butt (or pork shoulder — same thing) is that you […]
Fresh Peach Ice Cream with Caramel
I find that ice cream brings joy to just about anyone (unless you are allergic to dairy =( this is sad — there are cool alternatives though!), even if that dreaded Monday is upon us. I thought this ice cream was the perfect recipe to share on this beautiful Sunday, especially since the end […]
Caprese Salad with Fresh Chimichurri
There’s not a whole lot better than the fresh flavors of summer. The end of summer/early fall is by far my favorite time of the year for fresh fruits and veggies here in Colorado. I know what you are thinking. We live in an area with a semi-arid climate. How does anything grow here!? […]
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 […]
