Hey everyone! First, I would like to share some pretty exciting news…Over the past 2 days, my blog has gotten CRAZY AMOUNTS of recognition. Thanks to a website called Recipe Lion which features posts from lots of food blogs, I have gotten over 21,000 views in 2 days! It’s actually been slightly overwhelming (in a good … Continue reading
Aren’t pancakes delicious? Sweet, flapjack goodness doused in syrup and butter. Made better only by delightful additions such as chocolate chips or fresh fruit. Well, it turns out that you can make pancakes EVEN BETTER by turning them into muffins. You heard me….pancake muffins…puffins, if you will (or muffcakes, but that doesn’t sound appetizing). The … Continue reading
This dish is like the incredibly delicious lovechild of two Italian classics: Lasagna, and Chicken Alfredo. It was simply amazing. Not to mention, it only requires 6 ingredients! I love that these are individual servings. That’s probably not a big deal to some of you, but I just enjoy dishes that are made to … Continue reading
Over the past few days, I’ve been posting recipes from the Valentine’s Dinner my husband and I enjoyed together! So far, I’ve posted recipes for Parmesan Orzo Pasta, BLT Stuffed Tomatoes, and Lobster Colorado. All of which were outstanding, and unbelievably delicious. However, no Valentine’s Dinner is complete without the all important chocolate dessert. Thus, … Continue reading
Over the past few days, I’ve been sharing recipes from our Valentine’s Dinner menu. The side dishes were Parmesan Orzo Pasta and BLT Stuffed Tomatoes. Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post (and the most important part of dinner): Chocolate Lava Cakes! Today, however, we will be discussing the ridiculously delicious entree of Lobster Colorado. To be … Continue reading
Yesterday I posted the first recipe from our Valentine’s Dinner, Parmesan Orzo Pasta. Today’s post is about a second side dish, BLT Stuffed Tomatoes. Still to come from my Valentine’s Dinner Menu: Lobster Colorado and Chocolate Lava Cakes! These stuffed tomatoes are AWESOME. It’s basically a really unique and pretty way to serve a … Continue reading
This, ladies and gentlemen, was our Valentine’s Dinner (dessert, not pictured). I know, it’s been a few days since Valentine’s, but we waited to have this awesome dinner on Saturday so that we’d have ample time to prepare it and eat at a reasonable time. So really, I’m not late. Anyways! Over the next few … Continue reading
This is literally the most comforting thing I’ve ever eaten. It was heavenly. I wasn’t feeling very well earlier this week and was in desperate need of some comfort food. Saucy pasta with gooey mozzarella cheese all wrapped up in warm, buttery bread was exactly what I needed! Carbs wrapped in more carbs is definitely … Continue reading
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! Though not a national holiday, Valentine’s does give couples a special day to express their love to one another. And what better way to do that than FOOD?! In my opinion, Valentine’s day isn’t as much about the gifts or the candy or the flowers…it’s all about the food. If I … Continue reading
Do you want to treat your Valentine to a nice meal this Thursday? Steak is always a good choice! Plus, nothing says true love like standing outside by the grill in frigid temperatures. And we all know that the way to a man’s (or any decent woman’s) heart, is through the tummy. Admittedly, this dish does … Continue reading
Similar to my “Stuffed” Flounder recipe I posted not too long ago, this is a dish that is SUPPOSED to be a cute lil roll-up. And, once, again, I couldn’t get mine to roll. Instead of wrapping the chicken around the basil and roasted red peppers, I just had to lay them on top. I … Continue reading
Today’s recipe is slightly different than the usual. I know that tuna salad is not elaborate or special or even unique…but it is normal! And this is, after all, NORMAL cooking. Tuna salad is a quick and easy meal to whip up. So quick and easy, in fact, that there is no cooking involved. Ok … Continue reading
Hashbrown Casserole is such a great breakfast food! It’s a shame that it’s so unhealthy right? WRONG! This is a light version that is only 290 calories per serving! So, go ahead and indulge in this cheesy, bacon-filled breakfast delight. Not only is this somewhat healthy, but it’s convenient too! I love “overnight” breakfasts. … Continue reading
Let me be honest with you… I did not have high hopes for this meal. The reason for this doubt primarily rested on the corn flakes portion of the recipe. I’ve cooked chicken several times with corn flakes, and it’s NEVER turned out well. It was always so bland and got mushy in the oven. … Continue reading
I love the combo of pecans and pork! This recipe is no exception, and it’s made even better with a yummy lemon butter sauce. This dish was REALLY delicious, and it’s a great weeknight meal. I think overall it only took me about 30 minutes, and it was pretty easy too! One thing I … Continue reading
