Late night blog reading can be very dangerous… I find myself craving all sorts of delicious foods at 11:00pm, when it is far too late to run to the store to pick of a few last minute ingredients. I picked this week’s posts for my Friday Favorites because they were the ones that made me…
Friday has rolled around yet again! So, naturally, it’s time for me to share my Friday Favorites… Before we jump right into the blog posts, though, I want to introduce a few new features that I’ll be including in each week’s favorites post. Instead of just my favorite blog posts, I thought I’d start talking…
With the Super Bowl this weekend, it only seemed appropriate that I should share some game day, snack worthy recipes as a part of this week’s Friday Favorites. Some of these are “traditional” football food, while others are not… Either way, I’m sure they’ll be a big hit at your Super Bowl party!
You really can’t go wrong when you combine sweet caramel with salty cashews. The caramel corn with cashews would have been perfectly fine and delicious on its own, but I couldn’t leave well enough alone. I am a big fan of peanut butter, so I decided to throw some peanut butter into the mix, too. It couldn’t hurt, right?
The peanut butter and caramel melt together to create a creamy and rich sauce. When you combine it with the popcorn and cashews, you end up with a crunchy snack that will satisfy your salty sweet cravings.
It’s that time of year again… Halloween! As I mentioned yesterday, I’m not a big Halloween person. It’s just not something that I usually get really into, and I really haven’t posted too many Halloween recipes. I don’t want to leave you in the dark searching for recipes, though, so I thought it would only…
Before I get into my favorite posts of the week, I wanted to give one last friendly reminder about the Kitchen Bootcamp challenge for July… Today is the last day to submit your salads and dressings. I will be posting the roundup tomorrow! Now that my little reminder is out of the way, let’s talk…
Lately I feel like I’m constantly apologizing for how busy I am and the fact that I’m posting “simple” recipes. I have plans for some more “sophisticated” recipes in the next week or so, but I’ve been finding it hard to get around to preparing and photographing them. Work has picked up a bit for…
Today’s Friday Favorites are a bit different for one very important reason… Today is the 4th annual World Nutella Day! You all know that I am a Nutella fan (and that I love participating in the Nutella Challenge). So, you know I couldn’t resist participating in World Nutella Day, which is hosted by Ms. Adventures…
Do you ever hide food in your pantry and forget it’s there? Well, I bought a bag of Halloween M&Ms a few weeks ago when I was out at Target… I knew I wanted to make a Halloween treat with them, so I wrapped them up in the Target bag and stuck them in the…
Over the last few years, I have started making more and more homemade gifts. One of my favorite gifts to make is popcorn. I have made a variety of toffee, caramel, and chocolate popcorns. Popcorn looks great in a clear cellophane bag tied with ribbon, or in a glass jar. It is a great addition…
