This Easy Enchilada Skillet is a one-pot meal that features from-scratch flavors. (Yup, there’s no canned enchilada sauce in this one)! Loaded up with ground beef, beans, and corn tortilla strips; smothered in sauce and cheese; broiled until melty; and topped with tangy pickled onions and radishes, this dinner recipe has it all. Someone needs…
Spicy, Crispy, Orange Beef
Spicy, Crispy Orange Beef. This version of the Chinese takeout classic features thin slices of crisp sirloin steak that are tossed in a spicy, sweet, and savory orange sauce. You can make it at home in less time than it takes to get delivery. (And it’ll taste better, too!) My aunt and uncle are…
French Onion Beef Stroganoff
French Onion Beef Stroganoff. This spin on French Onion Soup is hearty, comforting, and perfect for family dinners. It features tender beef steak, caramelized onions, mushrooms (if you like them!), egg noodles, rich beef gravy, and of course, plenty of delicious melted cheese. Is it just me, or does everything taste at least a hundred…
Slow Cooker Sticky Bacon & Whiskey Meatballs
When I was reading my list of upcoming recipes aloud for James, he stopped me at this one. “That sounds like a great snack for poker night with the guys,” he hinted. (He is so subtle, isn’t he?) But I had big, estrogen-packed plans for these Slow Cooker Sticky Bacon & Whiskey Meatballs: I was going to…
Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef
I’m trying to be a glass-half-full sort of person, so instead of apologizing that this Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef recipe wasn’t out in time for you to pile it into your Cinco de Mayo tacos, I’m going to say that I’m doing a public service by sharing it with you SO FAR AHEAD…
French Onion Beef Sliders For A Crowd
Daaaamn, Morgan! Back at it again with the white vans french onion soup spin-offs! … Is what I imagine you’re yelling at your screen right now. Because if there’s one thing that I most certainly am, it’s hip to the viral videos of 10 months ago. And if there’s another, it’s consistent. As in I’m…
Slow Cooker Short Rib Ragu with Horseradish Gremolata
Happy twenty-seventeen, friends. I hope you’ve started off the year hopeful about all of the things that lie ahead. Because I’m an over-thinker of epic proportions, you have to know that I’ve spent the past 48 hours painstakingly analyzing what I think the legacy of 2017 will be. By analyzing, of course I mean without any data…
30 Minute Thai Beef Stir Fry with Sriracha Roasted Peanuts
The toothpaste is out of the tube, and there’s no putting it back. Not that anyone would want to. Thai food has been in the US since long before I was born. It was largely introduced when Vietnam War soldiers were on R&R in Thailand and enjoyed local dishes, fell for the women who prepared them, and brought…
Slow Cooker Smothered Beef Burritos
The only limes that I’ve been able to find throughout the past few weeks of recipe-making have been intimidatingly large. As in REALLY HUGE. As in close your eyes and picture a softball, but then imagine that it has a green rind surrounding it– that’s what these limes look like. They kind of freak me out (“but WHY are they so big?”),…
Loaded Nacho Bombs
Nachos are pretty much the quintessential football food. They’re tortilla chips piled high with seasoned ground beef and refried beans, blanketed in melted cheese and salsa, and topped with sour cream– what’s not to love about that, right? Besides the fact that the toppings nearly never wind up evenly distributed, of course. And how the chips…
Mongolian Beef
You would think that a dish called “Mongolian Beef” would be, well, a Mongolian meal made of beef. But we apparently have a tendency to just name things on a whim around here, and Mongolian Beef has absolutely nothing to do with Mongolian methods of cooking. Nada. Instead, it resembles the Americanized versions of Chinese food, which,…
Slow Cooker Honey Chipotle Stout Enchiladas
Can you believe that it’s already August? Where did the summer go? We’re just over a month away from swapping out lemonade for pumpkin lattes and, you guys, I’m so not ready for the sun to start setting before I leave the office. We’ll be packing away our swimsuits and taking out our sweaters in no time. NO. Nooooo!…
Slow Cooker Korean Sloppy Joes
My obsession with fusion food started when I was still living in New Brunswick, taste-testing my way through the town one drunk-friendly food truck or mini restaurant at a time. Out of all of the food NB had to offer, it was a Korean BBQ fusion restaurant that stole my heart and wooed my tastebuds….
Cucumber-Wrapped, Feta-Stuffed Meatballs
Please do not ask me to detail what I have eaten in the past couple of weeks. The holidays have turned me into a walking garbage disposal for all things fried, fatty, or fudgy, and just trying to remember exactly what that entails gives me a bit of a stomach ache. I’m not saying that…
Ultimate Herbed Garlic Bread Cheesesteaks
My two guiltiest of guilty pleasures are, without a doubt, toasted or crusty bread and massive amounts of cheese. I once read that Americans eat the weight equivalent of 72 Titanics in cheese in one year– I’m pretty positive I make a significant contribution to that amount. And while I’ll eat cheese in pretty much…
Cheesesteak Stuffed Mushrooms
Football season is coming up, and in my area that means a few things: Passionate, reckless fans and a lot of trash talking Beer, beer, and more beer Still more beer There is no question of what we’re doing on Sundays Cheesesteak Now, Cheesesteaks are always popular here in the oh-so mystical land we call the greater Philadelphia area….
