Cheesy, buttery, garlic bread wrapped around steak and caramelized onions, topped with an over-easy egg, perfect for sopping up for that extra decadence! – – If you’re looking for healthful recipes, just look away now. Go look at my mediterranean dip, or marinated kabobs, or the plethora of roasted veggie ideas on this blog. DON’T keep reading. Diets have been broken by this recipe. Meaning mine. For all of you still here, I’ll bet you’re asking: what is in a steak decadence sandwich??? Well, I’m here to answer that great question! It’s French bread cheesy cheddar garlic bread, stuffed with…

Continue ReadingOther than the Apple French Toast, and the Egg Casserole that my friends brought to our New Year’s Eve party, I think these brunch burger bombs were the star of the show! They came about as I was trying to think of the menu, and wanted something a little more “lunchy” to brunch. The result? Little pillows of pilsbury biscuit dough stuffed with maple bacon jam, cheese and burger sliders! Now normally for a brunch burger I’d say that it’d need to have at least some sort of egg in it, but (1) we were having egg casserole separately already,…

So I’ve seen recipes for “cauliflower” substitute everything recently on pinterest (click for my tipsychocochip board on pinterest!), and to be honest I’ve been fairly skeptical. But I have been trying to eat healthier lately and I wanted a grilled cheese sandwich, so I figured if I was going to stoop, maybe I’d try the cauliflower bread. This is another recipe where this 1.5 c. food processor comes in handy! Just enough to make one or two servings without unnecessary cleanup! It was surprisingly tasty actually. More akin to a bread-like texture than I thought, and definitely not bad smothered with cheese. This…

They opened another Founding Farmers out in Tyson’s corner, right outside the mall and we’ve had the luxury of being able to try it (1) when it first opened, (2) a second time as they were updating their service and adjusting to the layout, and (3) this weekend, now that they have their business model set up for success. My short preface is that our experiences have been wildly varied and inconsistent, sometimes for an amazing experience, and sometimes just “eh”. Founding Farmers is a farm-to-table restaurant, and for brunch has an upscale buffet available. You can order a few items…

So let me tell you about this past weekend! I know we’re almost at this weekend, but I’m about to travel up to my parents for the weekend, and last weekend was a ton of fun! T’s parents came to visit, which is always a good time. We really packed this weekend full of fun stuff, so I think I’ll be writing about this one particular weekend for a while! We started off Friday with a trip to Artie’s, a restaurant that has been here for over 20 years, actually since his parents used to live in the area. They were…

Note: Permanently closed, as of October 16, 2016 So this Sunday I finally got to try brunch at what I lovingly have dubbed “el fuegos” since Fuego Cocina y Tequileria is a bit of a mouthful. Especially after two margaritas and the tipsy has kicked in. And you might be scoffing at me–hah, two margaritas!–but let me tell you, their frozen margaritas (henceforth margs) typically have three shots of tequila in them and couple that with the salt and the amazing taste, and you’ve got yourself a tipsy brunch. We started off with a round of apps: queso fondido, guacamole,…

This breakfast crescent ring is yumm-ee! It does take a little bit of effort rather early in the morning I’ll admit, with all the different pieces that go together. But it was tasty, that’s for sure! Actually it was tastier than I even expected, but I’m glad it was since it took a little more effort than expected at first glance. The one thing to do next time to make it look even better would be to make the ring a little smaller so that there isn’t quite as large of a hole in the middle. I think that would make…
