Roasted Shrimp Enchiladas with Jalapeño Cream Sauce
This has to be one of my favorite dishes I’ve made in a while! It freezes well too if you want to make a big batch. The only change I made was we grilled the shrimp instead of roasting them just to kick up the flavor, but for once I can say it won’t make a difference,...
Green Chile and Cheese Egg Bake
This makes an easy prep ahead of time casserole that feeds a crowd. You could really use any ingredients you like. It basically taste like a slice of omelet. I liked that the eggs where nice and fluffy. I did have to bake mine a little longer then the recipe called...
Lemon Soufflé Pancakes
I was excited to try this recipe, but it was a total failure! The flavor was good, but they where not soufflé and fluffy like they where supposed to be. I even used a ring mold, but all that did was make it leak and make it look even worse. I wouldn’t make this again....
Chocolate Amaretto Panna Cotta
I love a dessert I can do in advance and this one works like a charm. I didn’t put mine in ramekins so I could display it, I just used my dessert cups. The gelatin makes the dessert a little too stiff for my liking, but the flavor is really good. I think the...
Warm Potato Salad with Arugula
If you are feeding a crowd this is a great recipe. Honestly I really liked the potatoes mixed with the vinaigrette. If you are not going to eat it all at one sitting, only combine what you need for that meal and keep it all separate. Overall it’s different and a great...
Marinated Chuck Steak
Usually I don’t do much with chuck steak except use it in Mongolian Beef dishes or something that’s really saucy because it’s such a meaty meat. The flavor of this marinade works really well, and I think next time I would use it on steaks or something as well instead...
Bacon and Blue Cheese Wedge Salad
I never thought I would say I love blue cheese. I remember growing up that my mom loved it and the more stinky it was the better. It used to make me gag! I read somewhere your taste change every 7 years and maybe because I’m a little more adventurous now a days in...
Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole
I honestly never thought I would post something like this, but it’s finally gotten me sucked in to try it. I’m not a fan of canned cheese, but overall this recipe makes a batch big enough to feed a crowd and it’s super filling. I think this will have to be on my list...
Jalapeno Popper Pigs In a Blanket
If you are looking for an appetizer to bring to a New Year’s Eve party, these little babies are super easy and you can prep them ahead of time and pop them in the oven when you are ready for some hot fresh ones. The pictures below show me using a whole triangle per...
Garlicky Beef Skewers with Potato Hash & Spiked Ketchup
Lots of stuff going on today. I’ve had the chance to try out a new pan and I wanted to share it with you guys because it’s one of my new favorite ones to use! I also have a tasty dish that’s easy to whip up, but looks like you spent a lot of time on it. Normally when...
Italian Coconut Cookies
Merry Christmas morning to you! I’m so thankful for all my friends and family so this post goes out to my BFF and her kids. Not long ago I was lucky to have a little helper in the kitchen with me. Nyssa loves to cook with me when she comes over, and I can’t complain...
Fudge and Truffles
For the sweets of my baskets this year I made the Fleming’s Steakhouse copycat Truffles (Click HERE for details) and I made Cappuccino Fudge (Click HERE for details). They worked out well and I layered them in some boxes I had gotten during the after Christmas sale...
