While at work today I was trying to think of something to make for dinner tonight (this week we’re trying to eat a bit healthier, so I planned for a Keto dish). And I was having a hard time. I knew we were having chicken, but what, exactly, was the question. So I checked my … Read more
I’ve had this Chicken Cheesesteaks recipe for a while and hadn’t made it, so after a long day of shopping last weekend, this was the perfect thing to throw together. I wasn’t sure how it would be, I was afraid it was going to be flavorless. And I was surprised by how well it turned out! … Read more
I mean, what is there really to say about this stuff? It’s gooey salted caramel sauce that’s studded with vanilla bean flecks. There you have it. Put it on ice cream, bake it into brownies, top cupcakes with it, dip apples into it, or eat it by the spoonful. Any way you drizzle it, it’s … Read more
I first made Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies as a mark my second month with The Secret Recipe Club in December 2011 and it really had already been such a fun experience that I repeated it a lot of times since then. This month I was bookmarking all kinds of things to make (as usual), while I saved many … Read more
I giggle every time I say Cheese Ball. Childish, I know. I can’t help it!! I’m usually not a huge fan of cheese balls, but this one is so good. I think it’s the pineapple…I don’t know. I’ve had this recipe for a while now and finally made it to take to a family dinner. … Read more

You are big, take a long time to cook, are messy, and just scary sometimes. You are Buttermilk Roasted Chicken. Jump … Read more
As I was looking through some magazines, I saw this recipe for carbonara and did something that I never do. I went to the store RIGHT THEN and retrieved the needed ingredients for dinner that same night. I am not really a more-than-once-a-week-shopper. I make a meal plan, shop once, and don’t go back to … Read more
Barbecue sauces in restaurants always terrify me – how I can make something like this at home? Our local bbq restaurant makes delicious orange bbq sauce and that time I was cooking pulled pork and decided to try making my own orange sauce. Plus, I’ll share the recipe of pulled pork I made with orange bbq sauce … Read more
Hands down, pulled pork is one of our favorite meals. If my boyfriend got to choose, I think he’d eat that (happily) every day. I’ve only recently come to even like it, still never actually wanting it but these are the things that we do for those that we love. I had to check out The Pioneer … Read more
One of our favorite food is a BBQ and specifically pulled pork. I picked this Slow Cooker Pulled Pork with Griddle Corn Cakes recipe because there were the griddle corn cakes. It sounded so different and so interesting that I just had to try them. In the end, they almost stole the show from the pulled pork! … Read more
