Slow Cooker General Tso’s Chicken
We love eating out when it comes to ethnic foods, simply because I don’t know how to make most of the dishes at home. I still try a lot of Asian dishes regardless in hopes to find some new favorites. This one is one of those I’ll be making over and over again! I...
Poached Egg Hack
If you want a quick and easy way to make poached eggs for a crowd, break out your muffin tins! Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Add 1 tablespoon of water to the each cup then crack one egg into each muffin cup. Baking times may vary, but I found about 12 minutes...
Seared Scallops with Quinoa and Apple Salad + Butternut Squash Puree
I really enjoyed this dish. There was a nice balance of 3 different textures. Overall my favorite part was the quinoa apple salad and I would make that again as a side dish. Seared Scallops with Quinoa and Apple Salad + Butternut Squash Puree (Adapted from A Thought...
Jalapeño Popper Cheese Ball
I left the bacon out of this, so I’m not sure if it would have changed the flavor a lot. It was good without it so I don’t think it’s a must have. There’s tons of great appetizers and dips out there and this is just another yummy one, but not the best I’ve ever had...
Monte Cristo Sandwich
I love making a fancier sandwich at home. It jazzes it up and personally I just love a warm sandwich. Nothing beats warm melted cheese in a sandwich! Monte Cristo Sandwich (Adapted from She Wears Many Hats) Makes 2 sandwiches Printer Friendly Version 2...
Homemade Apple Fritters
I’ve always loved getting apple fritters from the doughnut shop. I finally gave them a shot making them and they tasted pretty good, I just ended up with way too much. I may stick to just ordering them unless I’m feeding a crowd. Homemade Apple Fritters (Adapted from...
Southern Pecan Praline Cake
I actually made this cake back in 2015, but it fell through the cracks and never got posted. It’s not a bad cake, I just expected a little more out of it. The cake itself seemed a little on the dry side. I liked the topping, but may make it again using a different...
Steak with Maple Bourbon Espresso Sauce
We love our steak nights! Hubby isn’t a huge fan of sauces on his steak, but one in a while he taste one he really likes. Both of us loved this sauce. Having the espresso in it helped me stay awake for the movie after dinner rather than my normal falling asleep half...
Crème Brûlée
We love a good creme brulee. If you can you want to use a vanilla bean. The flavor you get is really nice and with a delicate dessert like this you can really taste the bean. I didn’t get the even coloring I would normally like, I had an eager to help toddler wanting...
Creamy Spinach & Sausage Pasta
My dad had given us some home made Italian sausage and I made this for hubby’s lunches. He LOVED this dish. I’m sure most if it depends on the flavor of your sausage, but we honestly couldn’t get enough of it! You’ll see all my changes written in red. Remember when...
Apple Sauce Mac & Cheese with Apple Sausage
We branched outside the comfort zone and made this Sausage Mac and Cheese. It’s a hardy dish that can stand on it’s own or you can use it as a side dish. Here’s the sausage I used: Apple Sauce Mac & Cheese with Apple Sausage (Adapted from Adventures in...
Fudge Brownie No-Bake Cheesecake
I can’t say enough good things about this recipe….mmmmmm…..sooooo gooooood!! Valentine’s Day is coming up why don’t we just blame it on that and dive into this sinful dessert? Fudge Brownie No-Bake Cheesecake (Adapted from a dash of sanity) Printer Friendly...
