Quick and Easy Garlic Butter Stromboli Squares. This no-fuss party appetizer is loaded with mozzarella, salami, pepperoni, and ham, and topped with a garlicky butter and parmesan mixture. This is one of those recipes I talk about sometimes that almost doesn’t make it to the blog because it’s so simple that it’s almost silly-feeling to…
Apple Fritter Pull-Apart Bread
Apple Fritter Pull-Apart Bread. This is one of my most popular easy recipes, and for good reason. With sweet, fall-spiced apples, fluffy biscuit layers, and a delicious vanilla glaze, this pull-apart bread is always a hit. After making Buffalo Chicken Pull-Apart Bread a few years back (don’t tease me for the bad pictures, that post needs to…
Garlicky Feta Dip
Garlicky Feta Dip. This simple, creamy dip is tangy, garlicky, and always a crowd-pleaser. James now calls this “Trust Your Gut Dip”, which is probably a catchier name for it, truth be told. The story behind it is that I’ve been making this Garlicky Feta Dip for years– I first posted it back in 2014–…
Spinach and Artichoke Dip Chicken Fritters
Spinach and Artichoke Dip Chicken Fritters. These fritters are going to be your new favorite way to use chicken breasts. They’re tender and juicy on the inside with plenty of melted cheese and a crisp crust, and they taste just like your favorite dip! Working from home means a lot of things, but it especially…
Southwestern Zucchini and Corn Bites with Avocado Ranch
Southwestern Zucchini and Corn Bites with Avocado Ranch. No need to break out the fryer for this recipe– these bite-sized, veggie-loaded treats are baked until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Have you ever been typing away at your computer, noticed a deep and urgent rumble in your stomach, and instantly knew, “I…
Chipotle Chicken Sheet Pan Quesadilla with Avocado Salsa Verde
Okay so this is not nearly the first time I came up with a way to serve quesadillas at a party., and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Why? Because I’m not sure I’ve ever seen someone turn down a quesadilla. Crispy flour tortillas surrounding melted cheese and whatever other fillings you decide to…
Mezze Party Platter
I almost flipped the whole damn table over on Friday night. James suggested that we do a date-night dinner this past weekend at our favorite little Turkish hole-in-the-wall and I was all about it. Partially because I am absolutely obsessed with the food there– the creamy hummus, the crispy falafel, the warm pita bread, the butter-soft grilled meats, the…
Grilled Cheese Tomato Soup Sticks
I just found out that it’s National Grilled Cheese Day today and to say that I am overreacting over here about the serendipitous timing of it all is might be a slight understatement. And completely predictable for all who know me well. Could it be that I’ve got just a smidgen of psychic ability? Perhaps. You…
Party Potato Pave Bites with Cheese Sauce
Any time I go to out to eat, I devour the fries that came with my dish first and save most of the actual meal for leftovers. It sounds ridiculous, but I live and die for potatoes. It must be the Irish in me.* The path to my happiness is paved with warm, crispy-edged, fluffy-centered…
Loaded Juicy Lucy Sheet Pan Sliders
My housemate has been waiting for me to make this recipe since I moved in. It’s been, uh, two years… so sorry for the slight delay. I off-handedly mentioned the idea of sheet pan sliders in a random conversation with James’ friend Mike a couple of years back, when I first visited his place to…
Pesto Parmesan Spinach Balls
“Baked” and “spinach filled” aren’t usually words that instantly scream hit appetizer to me, but there’s a reason that Spinach Balls have been a popular potluck dish for decades. If you’ve never had them before, you’ve been missing out: they’re savory, with a crisp outside and tender center, and they’re so easy to just pop…
Green Chile Chicken Quesadilla Sticks
You could say that I’m extra invested in football season this year. The guys got NFL Sunday Ticket so we now get all of the games at home, I finally formed my own fantasy football league, and most importantly, I actually took time in the off-season to study up so I kinda know what I’m…
5 Ingredient Cheddar Bacon Horseradish Dip
I’d say that right around the time that someone literally lifts the entire bowl of dip from the buffet area and sneaks it over to their own table, it becomes acceptable to pat yourself on the back for making a damn good recipe. Or at least that’s what I told myself as I eyed my 5 Ingredient…
Salted Caramel S’more Dip with Cinnamon Sugar Chips
Hold on to your sweet tooth, because this dip is all dressed up and ready to party. James– being the resident dessert-fiend-in-chief that he is– has been asking me to make something sugary for, gosh, probably two months now. But since I’m selfish and prefer salty foods usually inspired by more savory ideas, I just finally got around…
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…
Chicken Bacon Pressed Picnic Sandwiches with Raspberry Honey Mustard
About five years ago, I met James’ mom over a platter of pressed picnic sandwiches. I know that I’ve mentioned this once before, but bear with me. James had spent the past few months of our friendship-turned-budding-relationship letting me know all about his mom– or maybe not so much about her as he did about her food, which…
