There’s a pretty big football game this weekend. Regardless of your position on the game, you probably are planning some fun snacks to much on while you watch the game (or just the commercials). So, for this week’s Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share the game day appropriate recipes that caught my eye this week……
You may have been wondering where my Friday Favorites went… But do not fear! It’s been a few weeks since I had a chance to do much blog reading (life got in the way… that happens sometimes!). But, this week, I made a point to sit down and go through a lot of the blog…
With warmer weather comes grilling season… And, if you’re anything like me, you love trying out new recipes! So, before I get to this week’s Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share the Backyard Barbeque Recipes eBook from Food Your Way. It’s a free collection of recipes from many of my favorite bloggers, and I am thrilled…
Another month of Kitchen Bootcamp has come to a close. This month’s challenge was to make soup… What could be better for the month of January?
Though I haven’t posted them all, I’ve actually made quite a few soups this month. We’ve had some cold and snowy weather (though, not as much snow as I know many of you have had), so there have been many nights where I just craved some soup.
The hubs and I are Ravens fans. Last Saturday night wasn’t really a good night for us Ravens fans. Though the outcome of the game wasn’t what I had hoped for, the night wasn’t a total loss. You see, since we were staying home to watch the game, I decided to whip up a big…
I use my slow cooker a lot throughout the year, but I think it probably gets used the most when January rolls around. Perhaps you can relate…
Though I do my best to stay organized and cook healthy meals throughout the year, I find that I am extra motivated in January. I get back to my weekly meal planning and plan out healthy meals for the week. One of the ways that I cope with busy weeks is to pull out my slow cooker. I love meals that can be prepped ahead of time (often the night before), allowing me an entire day free of worrying about preparing dinner. I also love that most of the meals that I prepare in my slow cooker yield enough food for at least two meals for my husband and I. It’s even better when I can repurpose the leftovers into a new dish with minimal effort!
Lately I’ve been in a bit of a cooking slump. I can think of lots of things that I’d love to bake, but since I cannot live on cake, cookies, and cupcakes alone (don’t I wish!), I’ve been forced to try to fight through my lack of inspiration and cook anyway.
When I’m feeling uninspired, I tend towards pizzas, frittatas, and soups… They are all of my “blank canvas” foods that lend themselves well to whatever’s in the fridge. I’ve found myself making a lot of them lately… Especially soups. The cooler weather that we’ve been having just begs for soup, if you ask me.
Ready for the weekend? I know that I am… This week has been a busy one and I’m looking forward to some time to relax. Perhaps I’ll even have time to try a few of these great recipes… I love this Turkey and Bean Chili from How To: Simplify… It is the perfect dish for…
It’s that time again… Time to showcase everyone’s hard work for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp challenge! I am so thrilled that so many of you took the time to participate and cook along side of me, especially because I rushed this challenge a bit to get it in by the end of the month. It’s so…
When I’m dreaming up my menu for the week, I will often ask my husband if he has any dinner requests for the week. Last week when I asked, he said “something Mexican with meat.” I think he was thinking of my Beef Enchiladas (pardon the awful picture… that recipe’s on my remake list), which…
