I'm always on the lookout for ways to eat dessert for breakfast. These delightful little muffins have perfectly light flavor and a melt in your mouth oh-my-goodness-this-is-so-amazing texture that's to die for. What would you call a dessert that you pass off as breakfast? I mean, besides the obvious...pie. Bressert? Deskfast? Although these are called… Continue reading French Toast Muffins
Lightened Chicken Divan With Quinoa
Quinoa is totally the cool kid in school right now. The topic of every conversation. Exotic. Mysterious. You aren't sure exactly how to pronounce their name. Ok, ok...you totally do know how. But I didn't. I had an entire conversation calling it "qwi-no-ah". Then my sister set me straight. She's been all over this stuff… Continue reading Lightened Chicken Divan With Quinoa
Crusting Buttercream & The Great Cupcake Pan
This week I had the tremendous privilege of making the topper for a wedding tower. The bride and groom wanted a giant cupcake, so that's what they got. I tested out several buttercream recipes and absolutely loved this one. It tastes delicious and crusts up beautifully but is still soft enough to cut thru. I… Continue reading Crusting Buttercream & The Great Cupcake Pan
Baked Honey Mustard Chicken
Quick. Easy. Delicious. These are the words I like when doing a weekday dinner. This moist delicious chicken is all three. I make it all the time. It's one of my go-to "I don't really feel like cooking tonight" meals. Throw it in a dish, dump sauce over it and done. No chopping, no prep… Continue reading Baked Honey Mustard Chicken
Happy National Cheesecake Day
Did you hear? It's today! Whoever thought up such a holiday should be sainted. What a brilliant idea. I absolutely adore cheesecake. I usually reserve it for very special occasions because I cannot resist it. Can NOT. I'll eat enough to make myself totally sick. It's just too delicious. Maybe you don't have the cheesecake… Continue reading Happy National Cheesecake Day
Strawberry Dream Cake
I can honestly tell you that this recipe was a present for me. From God. No joke. Let me explain. Some lovely people I know just got married. A few days before the wedding I agreed to help out by making a giant cupcake for them to cut into for the smash-cake-in-your-face moment at the… Continue reading Strawberry Dream Cake
Meatball Sub Sandwiches
I've heard stories about the appetites of teenage boys for many years. All of my friends with older man-children talk about the heaps and piles of food they plow thru. I have to admit, I didn't really believe all the tales. Then, I had my 14-year-old nephew stay with me last week. I'm a new… Continue reading Meatball Sub Sandwiches
Perfect Margarita On The Rocks
There's a tradition in my family. When someone is getting married, a certain uncle of mine brings the bar. In his Ford Explorer. I've enjoyed several "dry" weddings hanging out in the parking lot with him pouring various beverages to help the party be a little more festive. Actually, this uncle brought his mobile bar… Continue reading Perfect Margarita On The Rocks
Disneyland’s White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie
A few years ago I went to Disneyland on a mission. That mission was food. Glorious, delicious food. You see, I've been enjoying Disneyland pretty much my whole life. I went several times as an adult with my sisters and cousin. No kids, just four 20-somethings having a blast. I took a trip after the… Continue reading Disneyland’s White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie
Adobo Pork Chops
I'm a big wuss when it comes to spicy foods. So, don't let the name of this recipe scare you. I actually almost missed my 21st birthday celebration (aka: go out with my friends and let them attempt to get me blitzed) because I went out for Mexican food with my momma and hubby earlier… Continue reading Adobo Pork Chops
