I made Caesar dressing for the first time and I’m never buying the bottled stuff ever again. It took a minute to make and it was so much fresher! After yesterday’s insanely rich Cajun Shrimp Pasta, I really needed something a bit lighter. This really hit the spot and it’s portable, so I can just […]
I love breakfast for dinner. Eggs, sausage and croissants are amazing at all hours of the day or night. It was a major hit for everyone! I’ve been extra exhausted lately so I used store-bought dough because making laminated dough is a pain and a half. 2 packages Croissant Dough or Puff Pastry 1 cupContinue […]
I was craving a McGriddle minus the $4.50 price tag. 80¢ is much more my tune! These little bad boys freeze really well, so I made a dozen. Pancakes: 1 ½ cups Flour 2 teaspoons Baking Powder 1 teaspoon Salt 2 teaspoon Sugar 1 ¼ cup whole Milk 1 large Egg 4 Tablespoons Butter 2Continue […]
The Honey Dijon Pot Roast with Rosemary Root Vegetables and Gravy I made for dinner last night turned out great! Sweet, tangy and the Rosemary was absolutely delicious. I switched the recipe up a bit and decided to make a gravy out of the beef drippings. 3 lb Chuck Roast 2 Tablespoons Butter Salt andContinue […]
Happy New Years Eve, everyone! It’s a quiet night in with a Pesto Chicken Pie for us. You can use whichever vegetables you prefer, and it’s a great way to get picky eaters to get their vegetables in. 1 large Chicken Breasts; cubed 1 cup Broccoli Florets 1 cup Onion; chopped ½ cup Carrot; mincedContinue […]
Spicy Thai Peanut Lo Mein is one of my favorite side dishes! Pasta + Satay = Yes, please! It’s rich, creamy, pasta-y and delicious! You can add whatever vegetables you like best, but I love cabbage, onion and zucchini. 16 oz. Thin Spaghetti 1 cup Onion; chopped 2 cups Cabbage; shredded 1 cup Zucchini; choppedContinue […]
I made a Full English Fry Up for the first time! Couldn’t find Black Pudding anywhere so I substituted fried Andouille. The BBQ Bourbon Baked Beans definitely stole the show! I added in mustard powder and fresh Thyme and they are leagues better than any of those canned beans! I added some toast and AppleContinue […]
It’s bread week and for once I’m not behind! I’m not the best baker, but these came out pretty nice. I gave one to my neighbor and she loved it! The original recipe didn’t call for honey, but I love the hint of sweetness it gives the bread. • 750 grams Bread Flour • 495Continue […]
Definitely a comfort food kinda night. I normally crush up Sour Cream & Cheddar potato chips over top, but didn’t have any on hand. Making the cream of mushroom soup from scratch makes a world of difference and I highly recommend giving it a try. 12 ounces Canned Tuna; drained 1 ½ cups Cheddar; divided 4 […]

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 theyContinue […]

I haven’t done Breakfast for Dinner in a while and pancakes sounded really good. So I made Strawberry Banana Pancakes, Baked Bacon, Maple Pepper Hash Browns, Herbed Scrambled Eggs and Sautéed Mushrooms. 1 ½ cup Flour 3 teaspoon Baking Powder 1 teaspoon Salt 2 teaspoons White Sugar ½ cup Strawberries; mashed 2 drops Red FoodContinue […]
Yes, but have you ever made Scalloped Potatoes with Broccoli Cheddar Soup? SO delicious!! My baby brothers were in town and they eat out…a LOT. So I’m sending them home with something they can pop in the oven for 30 minutes. I saved one for tomorrow’s dinner, so that’ll make my day easier. 4-5 cupsContinue […]
