I want to start off by thanking Try The World for sending me their Spain themed box and allowing me to use their ingredients to create yummy recipes ?. You guys rock! I don't know if you feel the same way, but I think that receiving and opening packages is probably one of the best things ever, especially when they are filled with delicious surprise ingredients! From the day Try The World ...
Turkey, Apple, and Brie Sandwich with Apple Cider Mayo
Let me tell you a tale. A tale of my internet struggle this week. I have had multiple recipes ready to post all week and haven't been able to because my internet has been completely out. So you would think "why not just stay at work and post?" I tried this as well. Conveniently, every time I had extra time at work (before and after school) and tried to post, the internet went out here too. I ...
Southwest Burgerdilla
Strug-fest 2015. That's what this post should actually be named. I went back and forth for days (5 days to be exact) on whether or not to post this recipe. Here was my dilemma: This burgerdilla (named for its hybrid between a burger and a quesadilla) is seriously delicious. I mean...really, really, really delicious. It is packed with so much flavor and topped with the most delicious guacamole ...
Easy French Bread Pizza
Okay this is the easiest dinner EVER! Apart from slicing the red onions, you basically do no prep work. Everything is already done for you! The bread is made, the sauce is jarred (gasp! I know), the cheese is shredded, the pepperonis are sliced, and the black olives are canned. Toast bread, rub with garlic clove, assemble, bake, eeaattttttt. And it is just so good. So so so good. My homemade ...
Croque Monsieur
Hello!! I have missed you all SO much this past week! And just blogging in general. Man, I knew I loved cooking and blogging, but I didn't realize until last week how HUGE a part of my life it is. I went through blog withdraws. I had so much fun cooking my butt off on Sunday and getting all prepped for this week! It was, however, quite exhausting. I felt like I was prepping a Thanksgiving ...
Jalapeno Popper Cheeseburger
Since I was a little girl, Jalapeno Poppers have been my all time favorite snack food. BUT they have to be the kind with cheddar cheese inside...cream cheese = no go. I love finding different ways to include the flavors of Jalapeno Poppers into other foods - sandwiches, dips, or this burger! The roasted jalapenos and cheese stuffed inside the ground beef give these burgers the delicious Jalapeno ...
Salmon Banh Mi
There is this restaurant here in Georgia called Atlanta Bread Company - it's super similar to Panera but way better (at least I think so). Well there is this sandwich they make, a Salmon Banh Mi, that I am absolutely obsessed with! I get it every single time Seth and I go there and can't stop thinking the whole time about how crazy delicious it is. It has this perfect balance of flavors - crisp ...
Pimento Cheese Turkey Sliders
Oh my GOSH these are delicious. They are so, so, so flavorful and have so many different textures going on. It is the perfect bite. You have the soft potato roll, the crunch from the bottom of the toasted bun, the crisp bite from the arugula and onion, creamy deliciousness from the pimento cheese, and then a juicy flavor explosion from the slider. Chew that amazing mouthful and repeat. A million ...
Open Faced Turkey Meatball Subs
WHEW these past few weeks have been crazy! On December 21st, Seth, Boone, and I road tripped it all the way from Georgia to New Mexico to spend Christmas with my side of the family (my brother is based there). So we spent ten days there before packing it up and driving alllll the way back. The drive actually wasn't bad at all. And it was totally worth it because we got to meet our brand new niece, ...
Black Bean and Quinoa Burgers with Roasted Jalapeno Ranch
These burgers are just as good as a beef burger. Maybe even better! The seasonings in the patty make this burger so delicious. I read somewhere a looong time ago that using cumin in vegetarian cooking is a good trick because it makes things taste meatier...I could have dreamed that, but I swear I remember reading it somewhere. So because of this (possibly fake) trick, I use cumin when I am making ...
