So ya had to know it was only a matter of time before one of the new recipes I wanted to try was a nachos recipe, right? 🙂 This week’s recipe comes to you from Sunny Anderson a la Food Network fame. I watched the episode these nachos were featured on, oh, I don’t know,
As part of my 2017 new year’s resolutions, I would like to make one new recipe every week. I’ve been in something of a cooking rut lately – creativity has escaped me, thanks to the stress of moving and renovating a house – and am looking for some inspiration and some new foods to drool
Ok so here’s the thing. The lighting in my pictures these days SUCKS. And I’m apologizing but not really because I’m kind of actually impressed with myself that I’m managing to keep up with blogging with all the crazy that’s going on in my life right now. And while I certainly know that there is
You guys!! I am pretty sure this is the very first recipe that I took creative liberties with – and it’s pretty damn good! Way back in like 2000 or 2001, when I was first learning how to cook, the only cookbook I had was your standard Betty Crocker cookbook. There was a recipe in
Does anybody else out there know the term, “food hug”? My friend and I use this term to describe the situations in which we are so stressed or angry or frazzled or crazy that we want to EAT ALL THE FOOD, ALL THE UNHEALTHY-FOR-ME FOODS, ALL THE SLUTTY FOOD because it’s the only thing that
So like. Did y’all know you can make ricotta at home? And that it’s better than almost anything you could buy at a store (unless you have access to some mom and pop Italian market that makes it fresh)? It’s true. And it was SO easy to make, that of course I immediately had to
Listen. When I started this blog, I felt like food creativity started coming at me from a hundred different directions. And one of those things that popped in my head was ‘sloppy Joe cheese fries’. I’m not sure if I’d ever seen them on a menu before or something, but I know for sure I
This cheese sauce has been tweaked and perfected quite a lot over the years, but it wasn’t till last year that I started adding chipotle to it to spice it up a bit. Prior to adding chipotle, I would add dry chili powder, pepper jack cheese, regular Tabasco, and sometimes even pickled jalapeno juice to
If you don’t know by now, I’m from Philly – land of the cheesesteak, land of the soft pretzel, land of Wawa, land of Tastykakes. We love our Philly food, especially the cheesesteak. What I love about the cheesesteak is that you could ask 50 different people what their favorite cheesesteak shop is, and you would
You guysssssss. If you’ve noticed, I’m SO sorry for my absence. If you haven’t noticed, it’s cool. So I am finding out very quickly that getting a house ready to put on the market is no freakin’ joke. Since early January, I have spent part or all of every single weekend packing stuff I don’t
