Day 21 of my 8 week #PantryChallenge I needed to use up some of the generic brand crescent/croissant tubes I bought on special for 89¢ and stashed in my freezer a while back. I don’t really like my sweet main dishes to be cloyingly sweet, so I often add chiles, garlic, onion and vinegar. NotContinue […]

Making the Full English Fry Up made me think about what an American Fry Up would consist of. This is what my perfect, all American breakfast would be. Just missing the biscuits and gravy! That Huckleberry syrup was amazing! I’m one of those crazy people that puts syrup on every part of their breakfast. Lol! […]
All of the pancake-y deliciousness and none of the babysitting! You can substitute the gluten free flours with 3 cups of baking or all purpose flour. I, unfortunately, cranked the heat up too high and it cracked. Bummer! I altered the recipe below with the proper baking temperature and time. ½ cup White Rice Flour […]
I love homemade Italian Dressing! The flavor is so much more amazing than anything you can find bottled in stores and you can pronounce all of it’s ingredients, which is always a plus in my book.

It’s a bit dreary today and tomato soup sounded so good! I had some fry bread leftover from yesterday’s Fry Bread Tacos and they absolutely amazing dipped in the soup.

Went a little mad scientist on my leftovers! My local store had some Anaheim Peppers that they’d marked down and my leftover Goulash popped into my mind. Thought it needed something creamy and remembered that I had leftover homemade ricotta! Add some bacon to the mix. Oh yeah! My apartment smells so good right now! […]
