Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

While scrolling down my facebook feed earlier this week, I noticed a post from my cousin Jamie that made me laugh as I waited for my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars to come out of the oven. She announced, I’ve noticed a big backlash lately against pumpkin spice and I just wanted to make my…

Spinach and Artichoke Dip Stuffed Garlic Bread

I hope I never go through another bad break-up. I certainly don’t plan to. But if the unfortunate day comes when I’m licking my emotional wounds while watching Pretty Woman and ugly-crying on the couch, I will break one break-up stereotype: I’ll stay away from the Ben & Jerry’s. I’ll make myself this Spinach and Artichoke Dip…

Baked French Fries

“Oh no, I haven’t had fries since 2008,” my friend Justine said, waving her hand to block the golden-fried slice of spud that I offered her at a going away party over the summer. My brain exploded. Seven years without fries? Was this some sort of biblical curse? Maybe a kind of self-torture? The term “cruel…

Loaded Vegetable Lo Mein

There are times, like after a night out, a particularly miserable day, or a rough break-up, that I welcome the absolute lack of restraint that most takeout restaurants exhibit when it comes to salt, sugar and oil. Oh yes, nothing soothes a broken heart quite like massive amounts of some seriously artery-clogging cuisine. But for every day…

Jalapeno Pinto Bean “Hummus”

If you asked me to describe hummus, I’d tell you that it was a creamy dip made mainly of chickpeas and tahini. Yet here I am, calling this pinto bean and jalapeno-packed dip by that name, even though it has neither chickpeas nor tahini in it. What gives? Well, flavor and texture-wise, Jalapeno Pinto Bean…

Crispy Tabasco Zucchini Chips

I’m a snacker. I could eat the most amazing meals all day long but still feel lost without something salty to munch on in-between. This, unfortunately, does not always make it easy to stay in the same pant size, if you know what I’m saying. I have a tendency to blissfully eat an entire bag…

Indian Spiced Rice & Lentil Salad

Last year, I discovered that rice salad was an amazingly wonderful thing. It’s replaced pasta salad as my favorite binge-on-at-barbecues-until-the-shame-kicks-in dish. Actually, being perfectly honest, shame doesn’t even stop me most of the time. I will eat rice salad until I can’t physically get up to get more. You think I’m exaggerating, don’t you? It…

Classic Creamy Macaroni and Cheese

If anyone were ever to call me a recipe purist, they’d be wildly mistaken. I like my foods fusion-ified. I like them loaded with crazy amounts of fillings and toppings, and authenticity always follows far behind enjoyability when it comes to my meals. I do not have a Plain Jane appetite, to say the least….

Easy Vegetable Enchilada Skillet

  In an unexpected twist of events that would shock and appall my former 5-year-old self, I have grown to love vegetables.  I am like a kid in a candy store in the produce section during the warmer-weather months.  Aside from the massive (and I do mean massive) amounts of cheese in my fridge, there are…

Easy Homemade Enchilada Sauce

This past Saturday was one of those days when you actually start talking out loud to your online movie streaming source out of guilt. “Yes, I am still watching. I will tell you when I’ve had enough. I can quit any time. Just one more episode, I swear. Stop judging me, Netflix.” It was also (unsurprisingly)…

Sofritas Tofu Burrito Bowls

As a lover of bacon, pulled pork, and burgers, a lot of people find it surprising when I say that I also adore tofu. Or maybe I should say I adore good tofu. Tofu gets a bad wrap from the many people who don’t know how to properly prepare the wiggly soybean curd, leaving a lot of people to think…

Fluffy Old Fashioned Pancakes

More times than not, my breakfast consists of coffee.  Just coffee.  Maybe a granola bar, too, if we’re getting crazy.   Sure, I’m a food blogger.  Sure, breakfast is “the most important meal of the day”.  Sure, I live in a state filled to the brim with diners.  I should probably be ashamed. But the issue with…

5 Ingredient Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Dip

I don’t know if Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Dip would typically fall in the Super Bowl Snack category, but I’m here to say that it should.  It should be available at every party.  It should be omnipresent. This is the kind of dip that people eat once and get hooked on, because it’s so simple to make but…

Red Velvet Cream Cheese Swirl Cookies

Everywhere you look this time of year, there’s red and white– striped, dotted, or blocked together, running its way up candy canes and down pillars, and circling around knit scarves and Santa hats. So it’s no surprise that a deep red, chewy cookie with swirls of sweet cream cheese and dots of white chocolate chips fit…

Raspberry Cranberry Sauce

I am no stranger to the canned cranberry enthusiasts– I have several in my own family. (Gasp!)  They like their “sauce” to be, well, not at all saucy, with thick ridges in the sides that keep their mold long after they’ve thwapped from their aluminum homes onto a serving dish.  While I’m not particularly a fan…

Salted Caramel Apple Cheesecake with Apple Roses

I worked on this all day and night just to be sure I could get it to you today.  Why?  Because it would be a crime to not give you a recipe for something this good as soon as humanly possible.  So here we are.  It’s 9AM as I write this and I’m on my fourth…
