Last weekend we were at the mall and the kids wanted to stop for pretzels. Something about the warm buttery dough sprinkled with salt makes me think of summer. Long pool days and mall shopping with lots of pretzel bites. I wanted to take our favorite treat up a notch with garlic butter, fresh herbs, […]
Bee Sting Cake
We spent our mini moon after the wedding in a tiny German inspired town. One of the big things I noticed was all the baked goods were light and airy with some sort of almond topping. I really wanted to try making a classic Bee Sting Cake. A cross between a bread and cake with […]
Sweet and Spicy Sticky Chicken
There is a restaurant near us that serves a platter of super spicy crispy chicken, potato wedges, pickled radish, cold corn and tons of dipping sauces. We were shopping the local section in Publix and came across locally made pepper jellies. I knew right away I wanted to make a glaze with the peach jalapeño […]
Pizza Flatbread
If you live anywhere near a Sprouts farmers market you definitely need to download their app. We discovered recently that you can do all your shopping on the app to make a list or have everything delivered! Since I am currently obsessed with fresh lemon and herbs we have been going to the store every […]
Grilled Chicken Adobo Bowls
It has officially been a month since we got married! Today is actually my birthday. Patrick took the day off so we could spent some time together. We have both been working crazy hours to catch up from our wedding time off. The entire past month has honestly been a blur. We got back our […]
Everything Bagel Creamy Grits
When I think breakfast I think savory, fluffy, toasty buttered breads. One of our favorite breakfast sandwiches is an everything bagel with eggs and bacon. The garlic onion crunchy topping is perfect. Sometimes I am in the mood for something quick and we usually don’t have bread in the house so I experimented with some […]
Better Breakfast Sandwich
This past weekend was our wedding shower! Only 21 days until I am a Mrs! I cannot wait! As much fun as the planning has been the past year, I am definitely ready to wrap it up! So let’s talk about these sandwiches. One of my guilty pleasures is a sausage egg and cheese McMuffin. […]
Crispy Salmon BLT
Our wedding is only a month away! I cannot believe how quickly everything has come together. We have been working on the finishing touches and the weather has not cooperated with my projects. It has been non stop rain. I’m hoping this means it will be nice and dry by the time the wedding day […]
Banana Pudding Cupcakes
This post is in collaboration with Rodelle. All opinions are my own. Thank you for letting me support my favorite brands! Happy Valentines Day! Every year I usually do some kind of extra chocolate recipe. This year I branched out and experimented with Patrick’s favorite flavor profile- banana pudding. These cupcakes are super easy to […]
Keto Buffalo Chicken Bites
One of my all time favorite snacks is a crispy fried chicken bite with hot sauce. Hot sauce is basically my favorite food. I just try to find things to put it on since it is not social acceptable to drink it from the bottle. Chicken thighs are big on the keto diet because they […]
