French Onion Beef Sliders For A Crowd
They may be small, but these French Onion Beef Sliders will be a huge hit with the crowd at your next party.

Honey Crisp Apple Salad with Cider Vinaigrette
Did you have a fun weekend? Yeah, I’m really asking– you can tell me all about it in a comment or message me on facebook or get at me on twitter, which I am making a goal to actually use. Or we can just have a faux-convo and fake bond, whatever works for you. We’ve got to…
Chicken Cacciatore
When I used to think “date night”, I didn’t think “chicken”.  Medium-rare steaks, juicy pork tenderloin, butter-drenched lobster; sure.  But chicken?  Nah.  It’s just too boring.  Too bland.  Not sexy enough. However, after 3 years of James begging me to make Chicken Cacciatore, I finally caved.  I had eaten it before– a simple meal of tomatoes, peppers,…
Crock Pot Carnitas Tacos with Chipotle Cream
There are few things in the world more glorious than a meal that you prep in the morning, forget about for a few hours while you go to work or run errands or watch 6 back-to-back episodes of Project Runway on OnDemand (I can’t be the only marathon-TV-watcher here), and put the final finishing touches…
Grilled Balsamic Steak with Blue Cheese Butter
In the past year and a half that I’ve been blogging, I have really warmed up to steak. Â “Warmed up” as in I can’t get enough of it and I weep for the 22 years of my life that I wasted without it. It’s like when you’re in a relationship, and you really love someone,…
Omi’s Wurstsalat (German Bologna Salad)
“Let’s make Wurstsalat,” my Omi (German for Grandma) said through her thick accent over the phone, as we tried to decide what we would cook together when she visited. “Okay, what’s in that?” I asked her. Wurst is German for sausage, and salat, obviously, for salad. I was expecting a big bowl of bratwurst with…
German Rouladen
When I grow up, I’m going to be a paleontologist. That is what I would have told you when I was in grade school. (It was a slightly more attainable goal than the previous year’s career aspiration, which was to actually be a dinosaur.) I was obsessed with dinosaurs, and my room was…
Bratwurst Sliders with Beer Cheese and Beer Braised Onions
These Bratwurst Sliders are loaded up little sandwiches that pack a lot of flavor (and beer) into small servings. Don’t forget the beer cheese (which is surprisingly easy to make) or the beer braised onions, which are rich and caramelized, if you really want to do it right. Bonus points if you make the pretzel…
