Mini Crab, Spinach, and Mushroom Tarts
I happened to love these mini little tart appetizers. They are a cross between a stuffed mushroom and spinach dip with a dash of crab. I think next time the only thing I would change is maybe make one large tart to cut into pieces, because if you do individual bites...
Grilled Sirloin with Sweet and Spicy Coffee Sauce
The only negative to the steer meat we get is we get some cuts that I don’t really care for. Sirloin is one of those. I usually use the meat for stir fry, but thought I would branch out a little. Overall this wasn’t too bad, the sauce was a little different and had a...
Chocolate-Dipped Banana Bread Truffles
After all the cake ball like truffles I have made in the past, this one threw my husband off because he wasn’t expecting banana bread. He did like them, just every time he saw the truffle he kept thinking cake ball cake ball cake ball. Totally understand him, but this...
Bacon Wrapped Sriracha Coated Onions
This has to be one of our new favorite things to smoke out on the pit. If you are looking for something a little unique to bring to the party this weekend, give this a try you won’t be disappointed! There’s really no recipe for this. Basically you want to cut thick...
Rosemary Olive Oil Crock Pot Bread
One of my favorite smells in life isn’t flowers, it’s bread. Like my grandmother, I love working with dough and having fresh bread baking makes your house smell like a bakery. I was intrigued by making bread in a crockpot. Of course in the summer time it’s nice not to...
Crispy Smashed Potatoes
These little bad boys take a while to bake, but let me tell you they are well worth the time put in. I loved the crispy texture on the potatoes and we even sprinkled on some fresh rosemary. The nice part is we didn’t really follow the ingredient amounts, I just bought...
Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies with Avocado
Don’t let the name be a turn off. While searching for ways to sneak in some healthier options for my family I came across this. I used a little less sugar since I was making it for a toddler, as well as sugar free chocolate chips. You can use an alternative to...
Divine Casserole
Hubby loves casseroles for lunches since they are quick and easy to heat up a serving. I hate doing messy pasta dishes, but this one makes less of a mess by using egg noodles. I didn’t think it would be all that special, but once the pasta sauce cooked down with the...
Stuffed Calamari with Tomato Sauce, Polenta
As my June installment of my New Years Resolution I decided to give calamari bodies a try. I have to say this was a really awesome dish. The flavor, texture and look of it was all spot on. It’s easy to do ahead of time too and just cook it when you are ready. I would...
Campfire Crunch Cocktail
Summertime is perfect for smores, but when you’re in Texas we don’t do as many campfires as we do in the Fall so this cocktail is a nice alternative to keep you cool and still have that smores taste. Campfire Crunch (Adapted from unknown source) Printer...
Sautéed Pork Chops with Lemon-Garlic Sauce
I’ve had a hankering for pork chops so I thought I would give some of my sauce recipes a shot. While this is easy and tasted ok I didn’t like how thin it was and it basically ran all over the plate. Maybe next time I’ll add a little cream to it and let it cook down...
Buttermilk-Blueberry Breakfast Cake
This is nothing more than a giant blueberry muffin, but at least your guest can serve themselves the amount they like. I have to say this is a fluffy cake with just the right amount of blueberries and I would make it again for sure. Buttermilk-Blueberry Breakfast Cake...
