I love dishes I can make in one pot, easier to cook and easier to clean. It's just so much easier on weeknights when you don't have all the time in the world. Kind of like my easy and delicious viral recipe, the Tex-Mex skillet. Speaking of easy and delicious meals, I have a delicious recipe to share with you today. An Enchilada skillet, a pasta skillet filled with diced ...
Home Made Enchilada Sauce
I love making my own sauces. It’s really nice to know exactly which ingredients are in your sauce none of that “and other artificial flavors” crap that you see on ingredient lists. My favorite part is being able to add your favorite ingredients to your sauce little by little until you get the flavor you're looking for. I love being able to add my favorite spices and flavors to ...
White Chocolate Raspberry Muffins
I bake muffins every week, they’re great for a quick breakfast. I normally try to use different berries so we don’t get bored of the same kind of muffins week after week. This week I decided to add a little something extra to our muffins, I paired perfectly tart raspberries with white chocolate to create a decadent treat. So I made white chocolate raspberry muffins. I ...
From Scratch Funfetti Cupcakes
There's something so fun great about funfetti cupcakes that makes these the perfect dessert for celebrating anything. Today we'll say we're celebrating the fact that it's Friday. That's a good enough reason to whip up a batch of cupcakes, right? I decided that it was time to make my own, from scratch, funfetti cupcakes. They’re pretty easy to make and they taste so much better ...
Cheesy Jalapeno Burgers
Raise your hand if you've been grilling every night that you can! I know we have. Grilling means less dishes, and that's just awesome. One of my favorite kinds of grill food would have to be cheeseburgers, and yes they need to have cheese. What's the point of a perfectly grilled burger if you don't top it with melty cheese? I know I know, I'm going to talk about cheese again, ...
Last Minute Easter Craft: Easter Mason Jars
I can't believe that Easter is this Sunday! I seriously can't wait for Aliceana to hunt down Easter eggs. I'm secretly hoping my grandma buys me a chocolate Bunny like she used to, she always gave my sister and I the same bunny every year. The Peter Rabbit, I love nibbling at his ears and biting off his candy eyes (Easter bunnies can be a tad morbid, huh?) All the other ...
Samoa Cheesecake
It's that time of the year, Girl Scout cookies, they're everywhere. I was having a hard time getting my hands on a box of Samoa, and then decided that I would just go without for another year. Of course after I decided to pass on the cookies this year I've been able to find them everywhere. Everywhere. They're basically stalking me. I even found Girl Scout cookies in our local ...
Simple From Scratch Garlic Cheddar Biscuits
We have included some affiliate links in case you need anything to help you make these awesome biscuits! When I go to Red Lobster I'm mostly going for the garlic cheddar biscuits. I'm sure I'm not alone. Years ago I found a copycat recipe using Bisquick and I've been using it ever since. Then there's the box mix (which is almost as good) that you can actually buy in stores now, ...
From Scratch Biscuits
If it were up to me, biscuits would be a food group of their own. Fresh biscuits should most definitely be served with every meal. This recipe all started when I was watching Top Chef with AJ, why yes this Bravo addict got her husband addicted to a Bravo show. We're obsessed and now that they're getting down there with contestants we get completely stressed out everytime they ...
Mini Taco Pies
One of our favorite foods in our house was the good ol' taco ring. You know, the main course at that Pampered Chef party you went to in the 90's. Yep, we made that on a weekly basis. Taco meat and cheese stuffed into crescent rolls was all the rage. I needed to find a healthier solution to that meal. Pronto. While laying in bed trying to get to sleep, I was thinking up ...
Almost Spicy Taco Seasoning
Our spice cabinet is overflowing, we love using spices in our kitchen. So why in the world was I buying and using premade spice packets for years? I made my own taco seasoning recently and it is absolutely amazing. I seriously want to use it in everything I make, it just tastes so good. It also doesn't include the gross additives that the packets in store use. I didn't think ...
