This warm, melty, gooey, comforting croissant sandwich has been on my mind for weeks. Ever since the thought popped into my brain, I haven't stopped craving it! I brought it to work today for lunch and was just counting down the minutes until I could eat it. THEY ARE SO GOOD. Does this give you a small peak into my food-obsessed brain? The fact that I was counting down the minutes until lunch ...
Turkey Burger Lettuce Wraps
CHEESEBURGERS OCCUPY 99% OF MY THOUGHTS. All day long. I'm at work...cheeseburgers. I'm teaching a class and someone mentions lunch...cheeseburgers. Someone mentions the color yellow...cheese...cheeseburgers. Someone mentions reading...cheeseburgers. It does not have to be remotely relevant, but somehow my mind finds a way to get to cheeseburger. Thank you, little human growing in my belly, for ...
Roasted Garlic and Avocado Toast
Stop what you are doing right now. STAAHHHPPPP. Go to the grocery store, pick up fifty heads of garlic, roast every single one of them, and bask in the perfection that ensues. Do it. Because just one head of roasted garlic will never be enough. I could quite literally eat an entire head of roasted garlic plain, just completely plain and on its own, and be super content with life. Super stressful ...
Grilled Chicken Caesar Wraps with Mayo-Free Dressing
Ima not even tell you about my secret ingredient that makes this dressing super healthy yet. It will keep you on the edge of your seat/couch/bed/desk chair until I finally decide to drop the bomb of deliciousness that takes a usually mayonnaise and fat packed dressing and makes it good for your tum-tum. That's right...the suspense is growing. Meanwhile, since I'm withholding my dressing ...
Avocado, Arugula, and Tomato Toasts with Easy Balsamic Syrup
Sooooo....I realized once I was DONE editing these pictures for tonight's post that I literally just posted a "toast" recipe last week. Myyyyyyy bad. Gettin' a little repetitive over here. Once I had that realization, I did recall a faint memory of thinking "Okay, it's alright to post another toast recipe as long as I publish it at the end of the week so it's not back to back." Brilliant thought, ...
Peach, Goat Cheese, and Basil Toasts
Oh. My. Gosh. Listen to me right now. I have instructions for you. Stand up, get in your car, drive to the nearest grocery store, buy a whole grain baguette, goat cheese, peaches, and basil, go home, and MAKE THESE RIGHT THIS SECOND. You guys. It is not often that I lose my mind this much over a recipe. Yes, I only post things on here that I love, love, looooovveee, but there are only a handful ...
Banh Mi Tacos [21 Day Fix]
Mmm. Tacos. Banh Mi tacos. I have discussed my love for Banh Mi before (yes, the plural of Banh Mi is "Banh Mi" - Google teaches me things) when I made this sandwich several months ago. Aaaaand this love is still going strong today. Some may even call it true love. Banh Mi just have the most scrumptious combination of flavors. The pork (slash other meat you choose to use), the pickled carrots and ...
Meg’s Baked Ham and Cheese Sliders with Magic Sauce
I need you to understand something about my life right now. Let's travel back to Easter last year. Seth and I were still living in Georgia, and we had an AWESOME group of friends there. So on Easter, we all went over to my friend Courtney's house and had a big Easter feast. My friend Meg brought....THESE SLIDERS. Ladies and gentlemen, it has been almost an entire year since this happened, and I ...
Easy Crock-Pot BBQ Chicken
Staaahhhppp I'm in love. So obsessed with this chicken. This is seriously the EASIEST recipe ever, yet it yields probably the most flavorful and moist chicken I have ever eaten in my life. Again...I'm obsessed. You know how sometimes when you cook just meat (rather than soups/stews/etc...) in a Crock-Pot, it turns out pretty dry? Tender, yes - but also dry! It makes me sad when this happens. I ...
Fancy Schmancy Grilled Cheese
Um....excuse me while I have a moment with this grilled cheese. This. Grilled. Cheese. Is. The. Best. Thing. Ever. Yes, I have been known to say that a lot about many different things...but fo reals. THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER. I died when I ate it. I died and went to crispy, buttery, cheesy, flavor heaven. And I wanted to stay there forever. You know what I would wish for if I had one wish? I ...
