The BEST Italian Roasted Potatoes

February 13, 2020 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

The BEST Italian Roasted Potatoes - These delicious, crispy potatoes are tossed in a delicious Italian sauce, roasted, and then tossed in more of the same sauce and served. They are insanely flavorful and crazy delicious! #Whole30 TheGarlicDiaries.com

Strap in for the SINGLE best roasted potato you will eat in your lifetime. For reals, these things are like a flavor explosion, and that doesn't happen often with potatoes. Usually potatoes taste like...potatoes! Which is great, potatoes taste amazing - fried, roasted, mashed - they are bomb in all forms, BUT, they don't usually contain a lot of flavor aside from the flavor of potato. But ...

Peppermint Oreo Crunch Cake Mix Cookies

December 19, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

I mean...is it cool that I'm sliding another chocolate + peppermint recipe in here two weeks in a row, or is that too repetitive? Does it make any difference if I tell you that these cookies are super simple and will fill your whole body with Christmas joy? It's honestly hard for me to even think of any desserts or treats during Christmas that don't involve peppermint in one way or ...

Christmas treats! One of my favorite things about this season is making super fun, yummy little holiday goodies. There's just something about it that feels so seasonal and fun, not to mention Christmas flavors are the bomb.com, man. Things like peppermint and hot chocolate - it all just makes me a happy camper! I've been in Christmas mode for a while now, but I've had to be covert about it. My ...

Bourbon Brown Sugar Glazed Ham

November 15, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Um, please stand by while I overcome an emotional moment while g(L)azing (get it?!) at the crunchy exterior of this ham... - - - Thank you for your patience. People, you have not lived unless this ham has been in your life. This literally takes any ham I've ever had and slaps it across the country to a land where mediocre hams are welcome, because they ARE NO LONGER WELCOME ...

Baked 3 Cheese Mac and Cheese

November 13, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

I'm a firm - FIRM - believer in mac and cheese being a mandatory element of a successful and delicious Thanksgiving spread. I've found two parties here: people that are with me and see it as a necessary accompaniment just like stuffing or mashed potatoes, and then the people who never include it with their other sides. If you are in that second group...why? Who hurt you? Jk. BUT let's talk ...

Ciabatta and Pork Sausage Stuffing Muffins

November 8, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

But wait...how adorbs are these?! Don't these bring you so much satisfaction just looking at them? Picture this: you are setting up your thanksgiving spread, and you have twelve of these little cuties sitting out on a serving tray, ready for someone to just grab and place next to their pile of turkey, ready to be smothered in gravy and eaten all together in one glorious bite. I love thinking of ...

Overnight Crock-Pot Pumpkin Apple Butter

October 10, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

If you are from an area of the country/world that doesn't have apple butter, and you've never heard of it/don't know what it is, allow me to please explain to you the beauty of this delicious item. Apple butter. There's actually no butter, but "butter" is in the title because of the smooth, velvety spreadability of the final, pureed, slow cooked apple product. It's like jam in the way that you ...

Maple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal Cups

October 9, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

When you are a parent, the more super quick and easy shortcuts you can take with various things throughout the day are KEY.  I am a big fan of these shortcuts when it comes to breakfast. My son loves breakfast - it's the best he eats all day - baaasically an adult portion of food. What I usually do is make him a protein pancake (Kodiak Cakes FTW) and a smoothie. He loves the pancake, it's not ...

Baked Breakfast Sliders with Maple Butter Sauce

October 3, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

I am the antithesis of the horrendous and offensive term "morning person." If I wake up on my own without any alarms, then I'm okay. But, about 14 months ago, I gave birth to a permanent, living alarm clock that has zero snooze button capabilities, so since then there hasn't been tons of "waking up on my own." (He's the cutest alarm clock ever, though.) Things I can do to make my mornings less ...

Instant Pot Garlic Butter Green Beans

August 29, 2018 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

These green beans literally have a constant presence in my fridge, you guys. You can almost always find a tupperware full of them ready to be devoured at any moment. The reason = my one year old will go. to. TOWN. on these babies! He literally shoves them in his mouth by the chubby fist full. They are probs his favorite vegetable, and because they are so easy and quick to make, it seems like we ...
