I’m super behind in documenting some kitchen adventures. And even though I haven’t officially committed to 52 new recipes in 2013 … I’ve already got quite a handful under my belt. Last weekend alone, this is what I made: – Buffalo Chicken Tenders – English Muffins – Deviled Eggs – Shepherd’s Pie – Apple Charlotte…
In the event you were wondering, it is most definitely soup season. It’s like I don’t know how to exist without a stockpile of frozen homemade soups in my freezer. Currently I’m rocking some arugula lentil soup, chorizo lentil soup and now this little gem. A brown butter tomato soup.
I’ve never made deviled eggs before. But something about them seemed appropriate for a Downton Abbey premiere party. It didn’t seem right to have a party to celebrate the 1920s … and not have more than one course. Here’s what I ended up serving: – Deviled Eggs with sun-dried tomato and fried shallot! – Shepard’s…
I’ve been waiting to make english muffins for quite a few weeks and finally this weekend seemed like the right time. I tend to have an english muffin every workday morning as part of my second breakfast. Yes, that’s true. The world begins to collapse around me when I miss meals during the workday ……
My sister likes to say that I make a terrible sick person. In her mind, I turn into this pathetic mess of a person that just appears fundamentally weak. I’d like to believe that this isn’t actually the case and the only downfall is that I wear the same pair of sweatpants for more days…
Yesterday my baby brother turned 14. Yikes right? It’s hard to believe that the little nugget is now closer to being able to drive than color inside (and outside the lines). In the tradition of birthday dinners, Baby Brother got to pick what he wanted to dine on. There was some back and forth but…
A few weeks ago, I started to research how to make my own English muffins. I figured that anything that I love as much as those suckers, I should at least attempt to make once. So, I picked up some cornmeal and… since then it’s just been sitting in my cabinet. Bummer. But, this past weekend I had…
It’s swapping season … internet style. I signed up for this food blogger cookie swap back in mid-October …. and now nearly two months later…. I can finally write up the recipe I lovingly crafted for it. The premise of the swap is that you have to make something that is original to your blog…
Earlier in the year I made a sweet potato and sausage soup. I made it because I thought it would fulfill my love of meat and carbs in a liquid based dish. Spoiler alert. It didn’t. It was so mediocre that I couldn’t even be compelled to write about it. I’m still taking credit for…
The best part about Thanksgiving is that you almost already know what you are getting before the day even starts. The turkey is the family recipe, mashed potatoes are how the family likes them, and the same goes for the consistency of the squash and whether or not there is a green bean casserole. Maybe…
