Our road to this tasty baked bacon is a bit of a rocky one. I'm good at many things but I've never been any good at making bacon. I have no problems admitting to this either, I'll own up to it and happily offer the bacon making to anyone else! However, I'm not sure if it's that I end up cooking it over too high a heat in the skillet or if it's just cooking for too long. Whatever it is, nine times out of ten if I make it on the stove while cooking other foods, the bacon ends up burnt to a … [Read more...]
All the Game Day Recipes You Could Need!
It's no secret around here that my family has a love of sports.

Cranberry Salad Mini Parfaits

All opinions are mine alone. #BIGSeason #BigLots #CollectiveBias When I think about the holiday season, some of my fondest memories are how it was spent growing up. All the major holidays were spent at my aunts house, for Christmas she would decorate her entire house with holiday festive cheer. Every room would be decorated and I would go through the house admiring every little touch she would add. She … [Read more...]
Thanksgiving for the Vegetarian – 12 Recipe Ideas
Thanksgiving is best known for Turkey. It's pretty synonymous and what most of us expect that celebrate a traditional Thanksgiving. Sometimes there's a ham thrown in too, and many family like to add other meats that might be their favorite too. Where does this leave the vegetarian, though? Sure, one would assume the vegetarian will eat one of the traditional sides like Macaroni and Cheese or Mashed Potatoes and Gravy. However, we have a tendency to add meats and broths to those as well. I see … [Read more...]
Beer Battered Fried Chicken Wings
During the month of October my good friend Mandi from Chewsy Lovers and I got together to bring you a month of wings every week.

Now that October has come and gone and we've got quite the arsenal of wing recipes, I thought I'd come back in Mid-November with a little encore recipe to share with you. I might do this every so often, these wing recipes are hard to resist! … [Read more...]
Cajun Buttermilk Fried Wings with Spicy Aioli
Last year when Mandi from Chewsy Lovers and I started our wing series, we didn't know quite how popular it would be. We had intended to just prepare a few recipes and share throughout the month of September to kick off football/tailgate season. It was sort of a no-brainer because Mandi and her husband, Buck, love to share recipes for tailgate foods and all of their grilling wonders, which ended up being some of their own most popular recipes. I too had written a few recipes for game day … [Read more...]
Mushroom, Zucchini and Carrot Saute
One of my favorite things, ever, is sautéed mushrooms. I'm a big mushroom lover as it is, but placing those babies in a pan with a bit of seasonings and some olive oil just makes them so incredibly tasty. I swear I could eat them like candy. All summer long I made different variations of sautéed mushrooms, sometimes with zucchini, maybe some tomatoes, and trying a variety of other veggies mixed in too. It's such an easy dish and you can serve it over rice, or with some pan fried fish that it … [Read more...]
