Split Pea and Asparagus Soup with Parmesan-Garlic Toast
Warm and cozy. Deliciously filling. A savory winter soup, pureed to perfection... So this meal went down two ways at our dinner table...One way for my bowl, and another for Steve's bowl. Steve wanted the dip his Parmesan-Garlic Toast in the soup, almost scooping it out. I, on the other hand, preferred eating the soup with a crouton-version of the toast (see photo … [Read more...]
Pecan Streusel Stuffed Egg Nog French Toast Bake
Christmas Morning Casseroles. So many options, so many choices. Tradition vs. something new. (I just added a few casserole ideas to my "Holiday Food" board on Pinterest.) Here's one for this year. Or next, if you've already got this year's figured out. (If you're into trying new ones!) It's a basic stuffed french toast bake. That I hopped up with pecan streusel, … [Read more...]
BBQ Meatball Sliders
So this is my first "set" of meatballs since moving to Texas. And I thought making BBQ style ones would only be appropriate...seeing as how there is a BBQ joint on every second corner around here. (At least it seems that way!) I had some dinner rolls I'd picked up "on special" and some meat in the freezer. These sliders would be perfect alongside my Spicy … [Read more...]
Homemade Break ‘n Bake Cookies
Two cookie dough posts in one week. You'd think I was pregnant and craving cookies or something. (Oh wait.) Actually, I really should have included this in Monday's How to Freeze Cookie Dough article, but we'll let this one stand on its own. I love gifting people with homemade cookie dough. And this is a simple and easy way to do it! Scoop into groups of … [Read more...]

I'm planning on doing a couple of "dough makes" in November, as … [Read more...]
Spiderweb Cupcakes
My quadruplets' birthday is this week and somehow they always end up with a Halloween themed birthday party since they were born in October. I've made a ton of Halloween themed treats over the years, but so far these spiderweb cupcakes have been their favorite. I made three dozen of these to take to their school for snack time yesterday and all of the kids went crazy for the … [Read more...]
Caramelized Onion Grilled Cheese
While it's difficult to say what my favorite soup is...because I love soup. All kinds of soups. But at the top of the list is French Onion Soup. With a thick-ole slice of bread and topped with Swiss cheese. Nom. I didn't realize this would happen when I was making this sandwich, but turns out...it tastes just like French Onion Soup. Just less drippy :) I don't eat a lot … [Read more...]
