Pancakes are a staple in our house. Well, they’ve actually been a staple in my life since I was a kid, just like many people. My dad grew up eating “short stacks” that his grandmother made him, and in his words? He ate them faster than she could cook them. This is one tradition [...]View Post →

  As a lover of all things Buffalo chicken, I am constantly trying to find new ways to use the flavor combination. You could say that I’m a bit of a Buffalo chicken … freak? But that’s okay. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right? Well. I might have a big problem [...]View Post →

  Crispy fried avocado. Yes, this is a thing. And I couldn’t be more excited! Two of my favorite foods, right here on a bunch of lettuce leaves. I can totally let the lettuce leaves slide, if only because the big bacon slices and crunchy avocado pieces make up for it. Actually those two things [...]View Post →

  Oh boy. Do I have a treat for you. Have you ever had a fabulous bacon and blue cheeseburger? Please say yes. If not, please imagine that you have. Thick and crunchy bacon. Covered in gooey Gorgonzola or Stilton or your blue of choice. And now, imagine that entire combination stuffed into a crispy [...]View Post →

Oh my goodness. You know when you have one of those desserts that completely knocks your socks off? This is it. And it’s simple, too. It’s like the new Holy Grail of treats! After seeing this Cannoli Tart from The Seaside Baker, I knew I had to make it immediately. And immediately I did---like nearly one day later. Not only did it pass my sweet tooth test with flying colors, the ricotta-hater loved it too. You know what that means. You must must must try it! View Post →

I hope you’re in the mood for something fantastically warm, gooey, comforting, and most of all, fun. We’re right in the heart of football season and who doesn’t love to bring the snack to the party that everyone can’t stop talking about? That’s exactly what this bread is. And more. I never need to be sold when cheese and bread are involved, so the instant I saw Rebecca’s recipe for Cheddar Tailgating Bread, I was halfway to the store grabbing the ingredients. Just you wait. We have a winner here, folks.View Post →

Enchiladas are a special food in our house. They are, as I like to refer to them, my weapon. They are one of my husband’s favorite meals and something I make probably twice a month.View Post →

  For years, I have been trying desperately to like coffee. Not because I need the caffeine, and not even because my friends drink it, but because I absolutely adore coffee-flavored foods (read: ice cream, cupcakes, frosting, steak rubs) and it drives me mad that I can’t enjoy the beverage. Plus, I do want to [...]View Post →
