Chorizo Queso Dip
No kidding: Today, I ran into my friend’s mom at the grocery store and, unprompted, she told me that she wants a taco bar and queso fountain at her 50th birthday party this year. With– I quote– “none of that processed cheese shit.” And I was like, “Stephanie, I got you. Check out my blog…
Grilled Cheese Tomato Soup Sticks
I just found out that it’s National Grilled Cheese Day today and to say that I am overreacting over here about the serendipitous timing of it all is might be a slight understatement. And completely predictable for all who know me well. Could it be that I’ve got just a smidgen of psychic ability? Perhaps. You…
Green Chile Chicken Quesadilla Sticks
You could say that I’m extra invested in football season this year. The guys got NFL Sunday Ticket so we now get all of the games at home, I finally formed my own fantasy football league, and most importantly, I actually took time in the off-season to study up so I kinda know what I’m…

Jalapeño Popper Pigs in a Blanket
Narrowing down my Super Bowl menu has been next to impossible this year. Not only because I think I have some seriously scrumptious recipes in my repertoire (so humble, I know), but mainly because I am the most indecisive human of all time. For evidence of this, take note of the post from earlier this…
Bacon Beer Cheese Bread Bowl
For those of us who are blindly flailing our way through life (yes, I’m including myself here), it’s nice to have a couple of life pro tips in our back pockets. This is especially true when it comes to party planning. After all, one of the worst times to crash and burn is when you have a…
Buffalo Chicken & Ranch Potato Croquettes
This post has been a loooong time coming. It was 2014 and the World Cup was being held in Brazil when I heard about coxhina for the first time. The teardrop-shaped street food typically consists of a fried potato dough exterior and creamy, shredded chicken filling. It’s extremely popular in Brazil, and extremely delicious. Or so…
Cheesy Pineapple-Habanero Bacon Dip
I trust you’ve pulled through your tryptophan-induced coma, and that’s why you’re here today, searching for something to shake things up after a week of Thanksgiving flavors. Friend, I feel ya. How’s Cheesy Pineapple-Habanero Bacon Dip sound to you? Personally, my fancy is so tickled by the 3 types of cheese, caramelized fruit, smoky cured pork, Caribbean…
How To Make The Ultimate Autumn Harvest Cheese Board
I’m not sure if I’ve ever gone on record with this admission before, and I’m a little nervous to let the secret slip. But here goes: I could take or leave Thanksgiving food. There, I said it. Now, don’t get me wrong. I love fall flavors. Carbs are my closest pals. Turkey and I are tight…
Smoky Chipotle Pumpkin Hummus
This might sound strange coming from the girl who just posted a recipe for Loaded Pizza Nachos (and spent the entirety of the post passionately declaring her love for cheese-covered triangles), but my favorite food to make is actually healthy food. Wait, let me rephrase that. My favorite is the kind that’s flavorful, comforting, and healthy. No, make that flavorful,…

15 Minute Pimento Beer Cheese
This 15 Minute Pimento Beer Cheese is dangerous. You might want to close out of this blog post right now. Navigate away, look elsewhere, forget you ever saw this glorious cheese masterpiece and go on with your life. Seriously, I’m only trying to help you out here, because once you try 15 Minute Pimento Beer…
Whipped Feta Tzatziki Hummus
There was a time, rather recently actually, when I swore my allegiance to a particular hummus recipe. I made some pretty bold proclamations to friends and family, like: “You could fly to the Middle East and try every centuries-old recipe from every beloved grandmother and every frequented street vendor and still never find hummus this perfect.”…

Can we have a moment of silence for all of the snack aisle salsas that’ll get tossed from the refrigerator shelves to the trash bins right after people have a taste of these aptly named, homemade, Must-Make Salsas?
