When I first posted this recipe for Sloppy Joe Stuffed Peppers years ago, I knew it would become a favorite with my readers because it was already a favorite of mine. Of all of the recipes that I post on this blog, this one is undoubtedly the one I make most often. It's the perfect...

Blackened Fish Tacos with Avocado-Cilantro Sauce
I come from a family of avid taco lovers. We eat tacos of some sort at least twice a week (in fact, we had tacos last night), and every single week, when I ask my brother what I should make for the blog, he tells me to make tacos. The only thing that rivals my...
Crispy Sea Salt and Vinegar Roasted Potatoes
Ever since making the Crispy-Outside Creamy-Inside Garlic Herb Potatoes, I have been totally and utterly obsessed with making the perfect potato side dishes. When done properly, potatoes can actually be the stars of your meal, and they fly off the plate like nothing you've ever seen before. Especially if that plate happens to be placed...
Birthday Cake Remix Brownies
When I was in high school, I worked in a pretty pathetic mall (there were like 3 stores in the place that stayed open for more than a month) at an Auntie Anne's. There was honestly no reason to visit that mall unless you wanted a pretzel or ice cream. No reason at all. But in...
Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Tacos with Pineapple Slaw
When I'm in a creative slump, I always go to my friends and family for recipe inspiration. What does my cousin Ashley tell me to make every time? Hawaiian Chicken. Every. Single. Time. Even though she's been telling me to make Hawaiian Chicken for over a year now (seriously), I kept putting it off because......
Boozy Red, White, and Blueberry Cheesecake Popsicles
I'm really bad at coming up with short recipe names. I thought about calling these "The Absolute Best Frozen Dessert The World Has Ever Seen", but that seemed a little too wordy. Boozy Red, White, and Blueberry Cheesecake Popsicles was shorter-- by a margin-- so I went with that. You can call them whatever you want though,...
Eggplant, Prosciutto, & Pesto Pressed Picnic Sandwiches
"These sandwiches were so delectable that the enzymes in my palate shivered with excitement" - James, when asked how begin this blog post. And that is why he is not a food blogger. But he is a big fan of these sandwiches, because.... well, who wouldn't be? Homemade pesto, grilled eggplant, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers,...
B.L.A.T. Croque Madame
If I could only eat one breakfast food for the rest of my life, it would be this one.
Chicken, Spinach, & Poblano Empanadas with Avocado-Jalapeno Dip
It's been an exciting week for me. My cousin Ashley, who I've mentioned a couple times since I started posting on this blog, got married on Saturday. I don't know if I'm more excited about that or absolutely freaked out that I'm now at the age where my friends are all getting married (I have...
Baked Chicken Chimichangas with Monterey Jack Cheese Sauce
Yesterday I cried at Starbucks. Not like a little whimper, I'm talking full on sob-crying with little pools of tears collecting on the lid of my coffee. It was not my finest moment, guys. Not my finest moment at all. I'm pretty sure James was contemplating running for the hills and never looking back.
Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip
There is not enough coffee in the world to save me today. I woke up at the crack of dawn yesterday to get my cooking done (look out for the Carrot Cake Cheesecake recipe coming up-- it should be illegal, it's so sinfully good) and then took a long, hurried drive/train ride to Newark for...
Chipotle-Pesto Chicken Burrito Bowls
It all started in college, when I stumbled into a new fast food restaurant to hold me over in between classes. I wasn't expecting much, but after just one meal, I was hooked. Love at first bite. But after I graduated, I quickly outgrew that fast food obsession. I opt instead to cook all...
One Pot Spicy Chicken Riggies
6 years ago, my then-roommate and good friend, Allie, asked me to make her something "spicy with chicken" for her birthday dinner. I wanted to make something that she'd never had before, and after scouring the web for inspiration, I became smitten with the idea of making Chicken Riggies. I'd never heard of them before...
Bacon, Cheddar, Caramelized Onion, and Potato Pierogi
I wish I could tell you that there was some deep background history behind these pierogi-- that my father grew up in Poland and brought back the recipe from his family's long tradition, or that my mother used to enjoy them in the heart of Pittsburgh and shared the city secret of adding sour cream...
Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Herb Butter Sauce
January, for me, is always a time of reflection. As I begin another 365-day cycle, I can't help but reminisce on the experiences I've had in past years-- from people I've met to places I've ventured, lessons I've learned to things I still haven't quite figured out yet. Unsurprisingly, a lot of my memories have...
Cheesy Crab Poppers
It's Christmas Eve and I've got about 20 million things to get done, but I have one very important thing to do before I can go brave the cold and brace myself against the hoards of last minute shoppers-- I've got to share this recipe with you. I made these Cheesy Crab Poppers on...
Boozy Raspberry Hot Chocolate
I've never been a huge fan of hot chocolate, but I also never realized that real hot chocolate doesn't come from a powder packet. In real hot chocolate, you actually melt chocolate and add milk and cream, which probably should be obvious but I never even considered it. It tastes like liquid happiness. Or at least...
Tomato Bacon Bisque
Many years of disliking tomatoes and an unfortunate encounter with Campbell's canned tomato soup had me thinking all this time that any variation of the stuff wasn't for me. However, this year I decided that I was going to push myself to try things I usually wouldn't, because taste buds change and yadda yadda, so...
Glazed Doughnut Cocktail
"Doughnuts. Is there anything they can't do?" - Homer Simpson When I was in kindergarten, my mom and my childhood best friend's mom would take turns driving us to school every morning (there were no buses that went to our area), and every time Talia's mom drove, we'd stop to get fresh doughnuts at...
Chili Cheese Dog Dip
For me, football season has always been about the dips. In fact, when I was just getting interested in cooking, I made a few trays of dip for a Super Bowl party at my years-later-to-be-boyfriend's fraternity house, and he even just recently reminded me of how kick-ass it was and how quickly it was devoured. ...
Mexican Stuffed Peppers (Chorizo-Stuffed Poblanos)
I remade these Mexican Stuffed Peppers so that they're better than ever. Check out the new post, recipe, and photos HERE. This past weekend, James and I went to an awesome little barbecue place in his town and pigged out (see what I did there?). It was fantastic, and I've definitely been inspired for some future...
Southern Baked Chicken
It's been 2 weeks that I have been hiding this recipe from you and I'll tell you without hesitation that it has been down-right wrong of me to do so. Why? Because this recipe is up there on the list of my favorite things I've ever made. Far up there. Lately, I've been craving Southern...
Feta, Red Pepper, and Herb Frittata
I'm pretty sure that no one will be shocked to hear that "Ramen Parties" were a weekly occurance throughout my sophomore year of college-- it being such a broke college cliche and all. You might, however, wonder what a Feta, Red Pepper, and Herb Frittata has to do with ramen noodles. Back in college, my...
Mango and Blue Cheese Salad
“This piece is ugly. Eat it,” my boyfriend demanded as he cut up a fresh mango for me. “I don’t like mangoes,” I told him, and the ugly piece was offered to guests at my house until finally someone eagerly accepted—the only person who liked mangoes at all. Why was I adding mango to a...
Boozy Shamrock Shake
These Irish eyes are smiling. Why? Because I now know how to make a Shamrock Shake at home. Cocktail-style.
Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Can Cake
I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'm no baker. Seriously, if you're searching for some beautiful work of culinary art, look away now. However, I've got to say that these turned out pretty awesome, aesthetically, for the amount of amateur ability that was put into them. They taste even better. ...
Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins
(Part of the Super Bowl Theme Thursday Series) One of my favorite things to do when I'm thinking up recipes is to randomly combine things that I love. As I was brainstorming things to make for the Super Bowl Theme Thursday Series, I knew I wanted to make something that resembled a football. ...
Buffalo Chicken Dip
(Part of the Super Bowl Theme Thursday Series) So you love to serve buffalo chicken at your football gatherings? Well ditch the messy wings with dozens of bones and greasy fingers (which of course wind up being wiped on pillows and pant legs by the less cleanly guests) and try this cheesy, flavorful...
S'mores Martini
S'mores Martini. This creamy, chocolatey cocktail tastes like a boozy version of your favorite campfire treat. I have been so tempted to say "bring the bonfire inside with these martinis" but I feel like I am opening myself up to lawsuits. So instead I'll say that this drink is like your favorite bonfire treat, but with...
