This post is sponsored by PAM Spray Pumps, who has been responsible for many a crispy-baked recipe in this house. Well, we had a few cool breezes this month, which of course means I’ve nosedived into pumpkin spice, pulled down my bin of sweaters from the attic, and decorated my house with gourds and dried…
Sun-Dried Tomato Crusted Chicken with Goat Cheese and Herb Sauce
My little brother Mark– or maybe I should say my younger brother, as he’s not very little anymore– doesn’t fit the stereotype of the annoying bratty sibling. In fact, he’s pretty much the coolest kid– or I guess man, now– that I know. That’s mainly due to the fact that he spent most of his early years trying to be like me….
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…
Parmesan and Garlic Crusted Baked Potato Wedges
I am a fan of all sorts of cheeses: hard, melted, fondue, spreadable– you name it. But by far my favorite is the kind that oozes onto the pan when you’re baking and gets super crispy in the process. You know what I’m talking about. 10 times out of 10 I am going to pick…
Nut-Crusted Fried Brie Bites

Walnut-Crusted Pork Tenderloin with Apple Cider Gravy
I am so obsessed with this recipe, I wrote a haiku about it. Oh, succulent hog With walnut crust and cider Is this how love feels? …Perhaps not my greatest work of poetry, but the recipe is far better than my writing, luckily. This Walnut-Crusted Pork Tenderloin with Apple Cider Gravy is now one of my…
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…
Hummus Crusted Chicken
If you’re one of the people who realized off the bat that this is a healthy recipe and said, “No way; That’s just not for me,” I have to advise you to reconsider. One, this tastes great. Two, it’s quick to put together. Three, it’s easy to put together. Four, a fourth point shouldn’t be…
