If you noticed, I didn’t post as I usually do on Thursday. Whelp. Let’s just say I’ve had quite the week. I hate to start off a Friday post with a rant….but let me just get this out of my system and we can move on. Cool? So basically, my hard drive crashed. And I…
Cheesy Risotto Bake (One-Pot)
So, I totally meant to post this yesterday. But then we got hit with an ice storm. So I spent my day-off (we are starting to have more days without school than with around here) cooking/running errands and totally forgot that I hadn’t published this! Whoops! But the goods news is, I’m sharing it with…
Mexican Street Fries
Remember how I said I felt guilty about sharing a less-than healthy meal so soon after Thanksgiving? Let’s just pretend today’s recipe is healthy, OK? I mean, there are sweet potatoes and Brussels Sprouts in there so technically this recipe is healthy (ish). Plus these fries are probably the best you’ve ever had, so that helps make up…
BBQ Chilaquiles
Do you guys ever have “aha” moments in the kitchen? I mean when you look at seemingly unrelated ingredients and somewhere within the depths of your subconscious, your mind makes a connection? Well, this recipe was my “aha” moment. See, last weekend Stephen and I went to NC and, on our last day, my parents served…
Garlic Pretzel Knots with Cheesy Dipping Sauce
Ok, friends. Today’s recipe is a winner. Just imagine a delicious warm carb-filled pretzel knot stuffed with fresh gouda, topped with garlic salt then dunked in a warm, creamy cheesy sauce. I mean, right? And you might not believe me… but these guys are super simple to make, and are pretty fool-proof! I’ve made them so many…
Easy Meat Lasagna (with a secret ingredient)
Happy Thursday, friends! I’m so excited to share today’s recipe, especially because it is being featured over on All Time Ever! If you haven’t checked out their site, you are seriously missing out. It’s full of tips from what to do in Disney to how to prepare for family photos, and these ladies are experts! When they asked…
Veggie Lasagna (with creamy lemon ricotta)
Remember how I told you I’m in NC for the week cooking hanging with my bros? And remember how I said these boys can EAT? Well, turns out that I have become so accustomed to cooking for Stephen and me that my portion sizing is all off. Basically, I need to make at least twice the…
Curried Mac-n-Cheese
When I was a freshman in college, I began cooking for my family during my summer break. I had started watching The Food Network religiously and even though I had little to no experience, I was confident that I could make anything. Let’s just say I needed a LOT more experience before my recipes were “repeatable”,…
