    Pulled pork is one of those slow cooker recipes to keep in your back pocket.  I love me a good slow cooker recipe that has people (mostly T) raving about how awesome it is when I almost feel guilty for…

    January 31, 2016

    So this is my first review post, and you might be wondering why I’m taking my food blog down this route.  The short answer is that I love some of the restaurants in the VA/DC area, and I simply wanted…

    January 31, 2016

    This grilled cinnamon pineapple is the perfect summer grilin’ recipe! Funny enough, it’s not summer as I write this, and there’s still a fair bit of snow of the ground. But with warm, toasty flavors, and just a slight bit…

    January 25, 2016

    If your first thought is that these look a lot like my previous cake batter chocolate chip cookies, you would be right!  The differences are subtle, but they are different.  For one, the cake batter chocolate chip cookies are quite a…

    I have a little story for you all.  A young girl graduated college and moved in with one of her friends.  Moved to a new state, and in the evenings when they didn’t feel like cooking some nights….they would eat baked…

    January 23, 2016

    Here’s a great party recipe!  The best part is that the veggies can be swapped out with whatever you have lying in the fridge.  I ended up using celery and carrots, though I’m sure you could add in peppers, jalapenos, broccoli, spinach…anything…

    So I was supposed to have volleyball tonight.  But lucky for you all, instead you get another recipe because it’s snowing and surprisingly dangerous for the less than 2″ of snow on the ground.  But it’s that wet, slippery kind.…

    January 20, 2016

    Here’s the twin to my previously posted recipe, jalapeno cheddar stuffed burgers, though they’d go great with honey mustard pretzel chicken tenders, or a chicken pesto burger.  So many possibilities! But I will say these fries are a wonderful side.  They’re not particularly work-intensive,…

    January 19, 2016

    This recipe worked out great because I had pretty much everything in my fridge.  It actually worked out great, one of those clean-out-the-fridge recipes!  In general, though, I wouldn’t really call it that.  This recipe is adapted from Holly’s Jalapeno Cheddar Burgers recipe…

  • honey mustard pretzel chicken tenders;

    January 7, 2016

    Here’s a perfect family-pleaser recipe!  I call it that because it’s a familiar and tasty option, spiced up with a little gourmet twist, but not with ridiculous ingredients.  Chicken tenders, done the normal way, except instead of breadcrumbs, crushed pretzels…
