Game day sliders, perfect to feed a crowd but with a gourmet twist! Ground beef sliders, mixed with onions and topped with bacon and blue cheese. You can even make these ahead and then pop into the oven to toast them up before serving! – – It’s been a crazy week! Last weekend I got engaged! Engaged! Here’s a picture of the ring. I drew Tyler a ring too, so he wouldn’t feel left out. But as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a crazy week! So I’m catching up on some old posts, and I’m sure I’ll go more…

Other 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,…

This recipe for Beef Kofta is another hello fresh recipe. I got another coupon in my e-mail, and with my life being ever-crazy, I figured it would be nice to skip the grocery shopping and have meals already planned! So far I’ve tried hello fresh and blue apron by way of the food services. I’ll sum up: both are good and convenient. A little expensive for my taste, except when I get coupons in which case it’s a wonderful deal. If you want to read more in-depth, check out my detailed comparison post of both: huevos rancheros quesadillas. This recipe kinda followed the pattern with…

Happy Labor Day! Did you think I was gonna leave you hanging? Nope, this time I’m posting a down and dirty meal that you can enjoy when you’re crunched for time, and kids are sure to love because there are tater tots! This recipe I learned from one of my coworkers–from Minnesota! We were really confused at lunch one day as to what he was eating, and apparently this is a pretty common staple up there where as I (being a Yankee originally) had never in my life heard of it. So that prompted a discussion of what is tater…

I made this for a quick dinner today, and it was tasty and looked just like the pictures over at damndelicious! I made them for dinner with some fried rice to whip in some veggies, but these would also be perfect as an appetizer! Make the meatballs a little bit smaller for an appetizer, but would be a good small party recipe. If you had more than around 6 people I’d double the recipe (but in either case would still serve another app or two)! Honestly, I don’t even have much to say about this recipe because it’s so straightforward.…

Happy cinco de mayo! Well, happy cinco de siete, technically, but who’s counting? I’ve been a busy pup mom this past week, not to mention work’s been a little crazy. But T and I both had rough weeks, so we decided to go all out for cinco de mayo on Thursday, and had some margaritas (henceforth known as ‘margs’), some yummy enchiladas, and some churro cookies for dessert! So you’re in luck, you get: not one, not two, but THREE posts today! I’m feeling generous. And T’s out of town visiting his family for mother’s day, so I only have the pup…

Last weekend we had a feast! My parents and my godparents were in town, and we made enough food to feed a small army! I made lamb kebabs (check out the recipe here), roasted broccoli, naan, rice, and then my key lime pie bars and oreo brownies (I have yet to post the recipe!). I ended up making gyros tonight because I had extra lamb, and the recipe I found on pinterest from food.com looked surprisingly easy! That and we picked up our adopted shiba inu Kenichi today!!!! Squeeee! So T and I wanted to spend as much time as possible with him, and I…

Corn bread, and beef, and cheese, oh my! This is a great make-ahead meal! We had a game night with a friend coming over, and I was going to try to not actually be in the kitchen making dinner for like half of his visit (like I usually am most times when people visit for dinner). I do love our current place for the fact that it has an open layout, and I can actually be in the kitchen talking to other people in both the living room area and the dining room area, and the kicker–NOT in my kitchen. It’s the…

So coming back from Iceland, I decided to do another round of hello fresh so that I wouldn’t be worried about grocery shopping and cooking and all that jazz when we were back. The first recipe we tried was a Dijon pork meal, that was satisfactory and I might post it at some point, but this juicy Lucy burger is definitely on my to-make-again list! This burger is more than your typical throw-it-on-the-grill burger, and definitely is schmancy enough to be like a restaurant burger, but it’s fairly straight forward to make. I’d pull this one out when you want that…
