This turned out to be such an amazing early Valentine’s Day dinner! I had some homemade strawberry jam in my fridge from when my freezer fritzed out and Balsamic Vinegar seemed like a great pairing. Sweet, tangy and it was so delicious with the Italian Herbs and garlic I crusted the tenderloin with. The Garlic […]
I made Chicken Enchiladas for dinner and they were amazing. If you don’t have the spice ingredients, you can certainly use premixed taco seasoning. I know that most recipes call for black olives over top, but I’m not a huge fan of them on my enchiladas. I baked the chicken so I could finish a […]
Day 37 of my #PantryChallenge I spent an amazing night with my family yesterday and cooked dinner for them. I brought over most of it from my pantry, but my mom had all the fresh vegetables, cheese (that I forgot at home) and sour cream on hand, so I’m counting it. My dad said they […]
This is a stellar appetizer for game day, holidays or get togethers. It’s savory, creamy and packed full of flavor!

These are so adorable, delicious and perfect for Valentine’s Day! Not to mention simple. You can use store bought jam, but I prefer homemade.
