Light and minty green cookies, spotted with chocolate chips of course! The perfect chewy way to get your mint chocochip fix! – – It’s that time again! And by that I mean tasty recipes for co-worker’s birthdays, and for this round I bring you mint chocolate chip cookies!

When the holidays roll around, and all those yummy dishes are on the table, sometimes you just need a break! Don’t get me wrong, I looooove traditional holiday foods: mashed potatoes, ham, sweet potatoe casserole, all those yummy Christmas cookies! But sometimes you want to just put it on pause, and take a breather. And I think these meringues are just thing! They’re super light, but the light mint flavor still feels festive. Plus there’s chocolate chips, so it wins all around in my book. Plus, this is a perfect recipe to make when you are busy using all that…

Addicting. I’m tempted to just leave it at that. This is a festive cookie if ever I did see one! Holiday baking, here I come! These are the perfect chewy cookie, and there’s a hint of peppermint in the actual cookie, reinforced by that slight crunch of crushed peppermint.

You can use whatever kind of candy canes you want–peppermint or spearmint, and I bet even the fruity ones would be a cute surprise! Plus there’s all those wacky candy cane flavors…

I’m finishing up this four part series for you in lieu of a Friday review post! But I know you’re all dying to hear about more cheesecakey goodness. I know, I know. It’s a little early for the Christmas/holiday recipes, but honestly, I just wanted to use these adorable candy cane sprinkles that I got at the Bloomsburg Fair (see my review of the Bloomsburg Fair in a previous post). Plus I figured I’d get a head start and tuck away a recipe or two that I know are up to par for the holidays! When it does get to be holiday…

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…

Before I start off this post, I want to note that I am going to *TRY* to be better about posting more regularly. This has stemmed from the idea that I have a backlog of favorite restaurants that I want to make posts about, but also since I’ve been crazy busy at work for the last week or so, and feel like I’ve been lagging a bit in my recipes. This will be a loose schedule, because sometimes I make things and get excited and want to share them right away! But my hope is to post: (1) Recipe Sun-Mon,…
