I am actually really proud of this recipe. This recipe came to me in bursts of ideas over the course of a day when I was trying to think of how I could use up some leftover bruschetta.  At first I thought about piling it onto a piece of grilled chicken.  And forking-and-knifing it. AndRead more

Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, I have a yummy Mexican recipe for you!! A little while ago I made a batch of slow-cooked BBQ chicken for my husband’s work lunches.  And it turned out I’d made just a bit too much.  Like he wasn’t going to eat it all before it went bad. Read more

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 isRead more

Hey guys! It’s been like, a really long time.  Like almost a week.  Sorry.  I know you were all waiting on bated breath for my next blog entry but life happened there for a minute.  Snowmageddon last Thursday, birthday celebrations over the weekend, lazy days off parked on the couch with my cat catching upRead more

HEY!  HI GUYS!  How are you?! It’s Friday and I just got the most amazing news and it’s a three-day weekend and I’m about to go party after work to celebrate the aforementioned amazing news and really THE ONLY thing that could make me happier is having one of these babies staring back at me.Read more

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 wouldRead more

I feel like I want to start every blog post with YOU.  GUYS. It’s just that I get so excited about food, and I want to tell you all about it, and I want to begin it all by saying YOU GUYS. YOU.  GUYS. If you could make only one kind of cheeseburger for theRead more

Holla ya’ll! We are well into January here in Philadelphia and you know what’s wonderful?  Today we received our first snowfall.  The snowfall itself is not actually all that wonderful, but the fact that it took so long to get here is pretty awesome.  I mean winter is already like almost half over.  I loveRead more

I am a Philly girl and in Philly we love our cheesesteaks.  Every Philadelphian you talk to will have a different favorite cheesesteak place.  Personally, I like Jimmy G’s, Sonny’s, and D’Alessandro’s.  I’ve never really thought to make them at home though because honestly, I am surrounded by so many good cheesesteak shops that canRead more

There’s this adorable restaurant over in Jersey called the Pop Shop that makes amazing food and they have a huge section on their menu just for grilled cheese.  One day I tried what they call their Frazer Grilled Cheese – it’s a griddled chicken breast with Monterey Jack cheese, jalapeno-onion relish, and chipotle mayo.  I’llRead more

Who doesn’t like sausage, peppers, and onions?  It’s one of my favorite Italian dishes.  I was recently at a work teambuilding event and they had a catered lunch for us.  I have been following an 80/20 grain-free rule over the past couple of months and all I could eat at this catered lunch was sausage,Read more

Hey ya’ll!  Sorry it’s been a while.  I’ve had some friends and family in town visiting which has been wonderful.  Bonus: I think I’ve eaten four cheeseburgers in two weeks – three of which happened in the last four days.  *insert googly-eyed emoji here*  I have eaten so much food, so much good food, inRead more

There’s this Jewish deli in Bala Cynwyd, PA, near where I used to live, called Hymie’s.  And Hymie’s makes THE BEST chicken salad I have had ANYWHERE in this entire world. I know, I know, again – here we are – really SFB?  Chicken salad?  I know.  It’s so simple, probably everyone has a recipeRead more

When I first made //this French onion dip// for #52NewEats last year, I was so blown away by the flavor that I was immediately interested in how else I could use French fried onions in other recipes.  And one of the first things that came to mind was a French onion grilled cheese! I choseRead more

Last summer sometime, I hosted a Slutfest at my house with our friends Geoff and Becky.  Normally Slutfest is just the four of us getting together and pigging out but on this occasion we also invited our friends Jackie and Brandon. One of Jackie’s contributions to the party was some kind of cheesesteak or cheeseburgerRead more

Some time ago I was Paleo, or predominantly Paleo, for the better part of about a year.  My husband really took to it – he likes meat and vegetables and has no problem turning away from potatoes and pasta.  Me, not so much.  I couldn’t last on Paleo like he could.  So he continued onRead more

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 thatRead more

Oh hai. Welcome to the Slutty Food Blog, where I like to take seemingly boring holiday leftovers and slut them up with a sinful cheese sauce and call it a Kentucky Hot Brown. Seriously though – I know these pictures don’t tell much of the story, but you will just have to trust me onRead more
