Well, I guess I have some splainin’ to do. A hiatus of November-June is a bit ridiculous, but I assure you I have an explanation. It’s not a great explanation, but here it goes. I fell of the bandwagon. Yep. I got busy, and lazy. Not the best combination for the ol’ food blog. But … Continue reading »
Peanut Oil Salmon
Crispy & delicious! Peanut Oil Salmon is a healthier dinner choice that only takes 15 minutes to cook. I’m pretty new to the process of cooking fish in unique ways. I absolutely love salmon, cod and shrimp, but I usually boil or bake all of the fish I make. To be honest it’s starting to … Continue reading »
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
It’s fall, and all I want lately is soup and grilled cheese. I think my mother always made it when it got cold, and there’s something so cozy about a big bowl of soup. However, this aint’ my momma’s soup. This soup is CHUNKY. Maybe unintentionally chunky, as I admittedly have been adding a little … Continue reading »
Crazy Good KC Strip Steak
Here’s some eye candy for all you carnivores out there. Being in KC, I do enjoy a good local KC strip steak on occasion. I made this one a while back and thought I’d bring it out of the archives for a post. I marinated these for about 3 hours, grilled for 10-15mins and baked … Continue reading »
Chicken Salad Wrap
Last Sunday I was feeling ultra blah. You know, the “weather-is-changing-and-I’m-suddenly-sick” kind of blah. Needless to say, I was feeling a little picky in the kitchen. I wanted tomato soup. We do not have tomato soup. I wanted grilled cheese. We were out of bread. I wanted crab rangoon. Wait, what? Crab rangoon when you’re … Continue reading »
Triple Threat Chili
My favorite thing about fall is DEFINITELY the chili. Okay, and the leaves. And wearing sweaters. And cloudy days. And cooler temperatures. So I guess, pretty much all of it then. But really, the chili really ties it all together. My mom makes a delicious, albeit very simple, chili routinely every year. We enjoyed it … Continue reading »
Simple Fruit Smoothies
It’s Josh again with a couple really easy yet super delicious smoothie recipes. The first one is an easy Strawberry Smoothie. I am a huge fan of frozen fruit for these recipes. You don’t have to worry about using the fruit before it goes bad, and it helps contribute to the frozen-ness of the drink … Continue reading »
Copycat Taco Bell Mexican Pizza
I made this Mexican Pizza about two months ago and kept forgetting to blog about it. It’s super simple, and while there’s not really a science to it, I felt it was worth sharing. It’s great for families with kids, or heck, hungry college students with odds and ends in their pantry. I refer to … Continue reading »
Mushroom and Onion Tartlets
When I first got my KitchenAid mixer back in August, I think I made something new just about every other day. These mushroom tartlets were one of the recipes that came with the mixer, and I just had to try them. I thought they would be great for the upcoming holidays, and could easily be … Continue reading »
Josh Blogs: Spicy Jalapeño Burgers
My husband is awesome! He’s been storing up a bunch of his own food pictures and recipes so that he can guest write on my blog. Seriously, a man after my own heart! I must say, his specialty is definitely his burgers, which he decided would be his first blog topic. He also makes a … Continue reading »
