Continue ReadingDeliciously flavorful tofu you can set and forget and once sauteed in a hot pan, you can serve over any starch or even eat it straight! – – Another highlight on my tour of things Tyler prefers not to eat–tofu!I actually really love tofu and I always forget until I discover it again. I love the silken tofu most of all, but of course it’s the hardest to work with. Firm tofu is fine, but definitely needs to be cooked. Honestly I could probably eat the silken stuff straight but that’s because it melts in your mouth. If you’re not…

Maple bacon is one of those trendy flavors right now and I have to say I don’t hate it. I’ve never been a huge maple person, especially next to say, my sister who could eat maple candies until the trees came home–that is to say, forever. Though she is particular about authenticity. In this case, unfortunately, I found that real maple syrup doesn’t add enough of an intense maple kick, so I had to out and spring for maple extract. Really, there’s not a good substitute. Potentially you might be able to concentrate traditional maple syrup by boiling it down,…

A delicious and simple meal, perfect for one or two people. Brussel sprouts cut thin and charred in a pan with mushrooms, tossed with raviolis in garlic butter sauce for a quick and delicious weeknight meal! – – I’ve been on a kick of dinners Tyler hates because he’s been gone on work so much! It’s like FREEDOM. Haha, not really there’s so much work to do around the house and I miss him a lot! But on the bright side I can make things for dinner without considering his preferences nearly so much which can be kind of nice…

They’re messy to eat, but deliciously so! – – What do you get when you throw a whole cake on the floor in your house? Apparently the answer is Strawberry Crunch Cakeballs! At least it was a delicious mistake! Basically I was trying to re-make this strawberry crunch ice cream cake that I shared a few weeks ago because it was delicious! And I didn’t prepare nearly as well because I figured I had made it once before and I would remember. Well…

These delicious blondies have a delicious sugary icing glaze and are sprinkled with pecans! – – The description for these says “sugary sweet”, and let me warn you these are definitely tooth-achingly sweet! If you’re in that mood they can really hit the spot, but even I can only eat a few bites at a time. The principle of praline blondies is pretty simple. Blondie, topped with sugary pecan icing. Tyler, my fiance, loves nuts and non-chocolate desserts, so this one goes out to him! Not that he discriminates against chocolate,…

You remember those strawberry shortcake dessert bars? Well serve up your own giant-sized crunch cake! An adult-sized vanilla cake with a strawberry ice cream center topped with that strawberry crumble! – – I’m back! Well, trying at least to get back in the swing of things, although life’s been a little crazy lately and I doubt I’ll be able to do a full three recipes a week (Mon-Wed-Fri) like I have been. I think for a while I’ll switch to one post on Friday, and even then I may not be posting new recipes each time, but might revisit some…
