Beer Battered Deep Fried Cheese Curds
We’ve ordered cheese curds in the restaurant before and I finally found some in HEB so I could try making them myself. I like the curds as they are more string cheese like and don’t just explode into a fried cheese mess. Mine came out darker brown color due to using...
Veal Scallopine with Asparagus
I didn’t use veal for this recipe. I used beef cutlets since we have a steer in the freezer to use up. I never know what to do with cutlets besides make chicken fried steak. This turned out fantastic to me and I’m happy to have a new alternative when it comes to using...
Dark Chocolate Chip Espresso Cookies
I really loved these little cookies, and not to mention super easy to whip up! I made them for some teachers and put them in the large pretzel bags which you’ll see at the end of the post. They fit nicely in the goody boxes I made. Dark Chocolate Chip Espresso...
Creamy Italian Chicken
Sorry I’ve been MIA lately! It’s been crazy with Christmas and family. Hopefully I’ll be back on track now. I recently made this for a friend that had a baby. I also made one for myself for when I had surgery. Freezing it all in a gallon baggie fit nicely in the...
Asian Fish and Peanut Sauce Noodles
This dish came out pretty good. I will I would have grilled the fish to add a little more flavor to it, but it all balanced out nicely with the glaze and noodles. I imagine it would also work well with chicken if you are not a seafood lover. Maybe use chicken stock...
French Toast Breakfast Casserole
I recently had surgery in November and one of the moms in our playgroup brought over this yummy breakfast casserole. I couldn’t get enough of it and I thought it was really good with the almonds as the nut to add a little crunchy texture. We froze them and then...
Balsamic Vinegar and Whiskey Steak Marinade
I’m always looking for some new marinades for steak and this one was pretty good, not to mention super easy. I served it with some grilled onions and it really hit the spot. Balsamic Vinegar and Whiskey Steak Marinade (Adapted from unknown source) Printer...
Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts
I have fallen IN LOVE with this recipe! The sauce is so good, even if you don’t do the brussels sprouts, at least make the sauce and serve over another veggie or chicken. Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts (Adapted from Kevin Gillespie’s Gunshow restaurant in Atlanta) ...
Grilled Chicken with Warm Goat Cheese and Lemon-Basil Sauce
We are a family that loves goat cheese. This dish is really yummy, assuming you follow the directions correctly it’ll look just as pretty as it’s supposed to instead of mine lol. My sauce ended up getting clunkly due to not reading the directions...
All-in-One Beer Bread Kit + Apple Cheddar Beer Bread
I love doing gift baskets for people because to me it shows more effort and love rather that just buying some random item. This year I made these as one of the items in my gift basket. To make it more festive I added a local breweries Christmas Ale to go along in the...
Eggnog Martini
Tis the season of all that company you dread being around all year long. Here’s a cocktail that will put you back in your happy place. I know eggnog isn’t for everyone, but if my non loving eggnog husband switched sides for this cocktail you may too. Give it a shot...
Upcycle Starbucks Bottle to Gift Basket Goodie
If you are looking for a cute packaging idea for gift baskets, here’s one I did a few years ago. I used the Starbucks glass jars then painted the lids white and put a snowflake sticker on top. You’ll have to do 2 coats of paint so the log won’t show through. Then for...
