Au Gratin White Beans & Kale
We’re in the thick of winter and all I can think about is comfort food. I need a filling meal morning, noon, and night….as well as forty billion snacks a day. Yet no matter what I eat, I’m still hungry from the minute I wake up to the time I close...
White Cheddar Bacon Bread
Bacon and cheese is a delicious combination sent by the gods to enslave every last one of us. When I was little, I ate SO much bacon and cheese that my sweat probably smelled like those ingredients (cue the “ew”s haha). The salty crunch paired with cool, creamy cheese was just too...
Savory Spinach, Gruyère, & Bacon Bread Pudding
I’m baaaack! Yup, that’s right, after a week+ away from blogging, I finally plopped myself in front of the laptop to write about a savory bread pudding. Don’t worry, I didn’t stop cooking, I just haven’t been terribly chatty lately. I guess I’m a bit stressed with life…but hey, that’s a story...
Cheesy Spinach Stuffed Pepper Poppers
This recipe provides you with a good example of what I do while I’m waiting for dinner to finish cooking. I don’t kick my feet up and wait for the timer to go off. Nor do I clean the kitchen while watching reruns of The Big Bang Theory (usually). Instead, while dinner...
Mashed Cauliflower
So…I totally broke my diet yesterday…but not for lack of trying! Honestly, I swear I’ve been attempting to cut back on carbs. I really want need to slim down from the pounds I’ve been consistently packing on this winter. Can I please stop pretending I’m hibernating from the gym?! Oy. Anyway, I...
Spinach, Artichoke, & Asparagus Dip
Another Super Bowl recipe! Watching a football game is great for two reasons – the actual game and the food. Whether you’re tailgating or viewing it from your couch, football is definitely an American past time. Growing up, we watched football all the time, then it died away for a bit until...
Cheesy Crab Toasts
Late night post? Say whattttt? Well…I was clearing out the leftover pics on my camera and found one I randomly took when I made crab stuffed tilapia earlier this month. When I first made that recipe, I had way more stuffing than tilapia filets, so I plopped the rest of the crab...
Jersey Crab Pizza
Jersey gets a bad wrap on TV, but I promise you it’s a great place to live filled with awesome food. You need to remember, we’re called The Garden State for a reason! Anyway, I thought I’d make a recipe to highlight some of the fresh food that I grew up loving...
Grilled Zucchini and Red Onion Pizzette
I don’t think I’ve ever truly stressed how much I insanely love crispy thin crust pizzas. The textures are just out of this world. It’s pizza cheesy goodness mixed with a satisfying crunch from the crust, but none of the greasy guilt you get from a regular slice. Annnnd it’s incredibly super...
Lentil Loaf
Lentil loaf is something I would have never dreamed to serve my carnivorous family until a couple of years ago. They would have been like “this isn’t food…this is what food eats” (hilarious, I know). But recently their minds have changed. Why have they changed, you ask? Well, I forced my folks...
Father’s Day Mac n’ Cheese
My family likes to eat. A lot. One of the things we can never seem to get enough of is cheese. More specifically, we can’t get enough of melted cheese! At any one time, we probably have at least 5 types waiting to be devoured. This proved to be true yesterday when...
Pizza with Charred Tomatoes, Broccolini, & Fontina
Mama miaaa, pizza pizzzza! La la la laa doop ee do Pizza is amazing, right? Melty cheese, crisp chewable crust, and any topping your lil heart desires. Although I enjoy the classics, fancy gourmet styled pizzas get me super excited. Unique flavors help spice up weekly pizza nights, making it exciting and...
