Hurricane Margarita
Hurricane season is never fun, especially when you live in Texas. It's been an active season and with Texas and Louisiana taking a big hit this year, I came up with a unique cocktail to celebrate the 2 states. I forgot to rim my glass, but trying to cut back on salt I...
Pumpkin Caramel Cake
Don't let the looks of this cake fool you. It might not be pretty, but boy does it taste good!!! I'm sooooo ready for Fall! We got our Halloween decorations up this past weekend. I'll wait another week before I do the yard stuff, but it's my favorite time of year. the...
Instant Pot Sausage and Chicken Jambalaya
I'm missing all my cousins this year and so bummed we can not visit due to covid. We have new babies in the family and seeing pictures doesn't do it justice to snuggles and my son bonding with them. I hope this is just one year we can eventually get back to seeing...
Lamb Kebab Wraps
I love how this recipe came out! My son gobbled it up and is a huge lamb fan like his momma so I'll have to add this into our rotation! The sauce makes a lot for what you need so plan on doubling the lamb portion or use the sauce on sandwiches after like we did. Lamb...
Spicy Peanut Chicken Quesadillas
Most of the time when I think of quesadillas I think of an appetizer or kids meal. I really liked branching out trying this yummy recipe. We really loved the spicy peanut sauce and I really think it made the dish. Such a great weeknight meal. Spicy Peanut Chicken...
Baked Chicken Zucchini with Bacon
This was a great and easy meal to prep ahead of time for busy nights. I say busy nights, but lets be honest our schedule is not so busy anymore. Anyway, it's still nice to toss it in the oven and hope in the pool or do some family game time without being stuck in the...
Roasted Hatch Chile Cheese Grits with Fried Egg
Anyone else loving hatch chili season? I decided to make a different type of breakfast for the hubby since he's been working from home. I know that's a jalapeno on the picture, but it's just as an added garnish to give the plate some color. We loved this dish and it...
Cowboy Pasta
This dish was so flavorful! I was a little weirded out by the cubes of cheese tossed in, but strangely the flavors all work well together. It does make a lot and I think it's because of the bow tie pasta. I think if I make this again I would use a spiral or something...
Instant Pot Korean Beef Tacos
It's time for the weekend, so lets not stress about making huge meals. The marinade comes together quick and easy as well as the cooking time in the instapot. I saved time and made the slaw using a prepackage Asian slaw from HEB. The boys gobbled these tacos right up....
Buffalo Cauliflower Bites with Eitan Bernath
One of my son's favorite virtual cooking class is Eitan. He's full of energy and a great roll model. Both my husband and my son are anti cauliflower eaters. I love it and try to sneak it in where I can without them noticing. Shhhh don't tell them that! I happened to...
Apricot Brandy Pound Cake
I had bought some apricot brandy to try out a few cocktails with. I'm not a huge brandy fan, but it does have a nice flavor I think better suited for cooking with for me. This recipe knocks it out of the ballpark! Hubby said the cake is heavy, but I thought it was...
