Ever since making those Buffalo Chicken Blue Cheese Enchiladas, I've been itching to put the same flavors on a pizza. And now that I have, I'm kicking myself for not doubling this pizza. Because it needs to be doubled. Because it deserves to be doubled. About a week ago, I was talking to my cousin ...and we got on the subject of pizza. I told him how I've been wanting to … [Read more...]

Buffalo Chicken Blue Cheese Enchiladas
I have distinct memories of blue cheese lingering on my taste buds. The flavor has been lingering for a few weeks...every since the Spicy Chicken Chili. In clearing out the freezer, I found 2 baggies of chicken breasts that I had frozen with Frank's red sauce as a marinade. Trying to figure out how to use it up in a fun, clever way wasn't too hard. These blue cheese memories … [Read more...]
Chicken and Spinach Enchiladas
I made these enchilada gems for my husband and his dude friends...just before Christmas. We hosted a guys night and I made 2 pans of these for the guys to snack on. (And I may have had a few...in the name of quality control!) The recipe is written for 2 pans...but you could easily half the recipe to make it for just 1 pan. And before you go all "these can't be real … [Read more...]

Cranberry Chicken Crescents
Experiment Alert! We had friends over for dinner last night and I made these. As they were coming through the door, I had a bit of a panic and started chastising myself for serving "experiment food" to guests. I don't think I've ever served something I've never made before, or seen a recipe for, to guests. And I don't think I'll do it again! Not because they didn't turn … [Read more...]
Buffalo Chicken Balls
Alrighty, usually I'm all about fast and easy recipes and out the door. Not this time. This is a great sit around the table and talk about your day recipe! It was a big hit with kids and husband alike, but I'm not so sure about the 2 year old. She just wanted to suck the dressing off. I wonder if she would have eaten them if she hadn't had the dressing first. (Trying that … [Read more...]
3 Meals From One Roast Chicken
Erin here - Add this to your next batch cooking day plan!!! It always feels great when we can make a meal go just as far as possible, and this is one of my favorite ways to stretch a whole chicken into three meals. In addition to saving on the budget, it also saves a lot of prep time in the kitchen and makes it easy to plan meals for the week - perfect for these busy summer … [Read more...]
What to Make When – Whole Chicken
It's time for another version of "what to make when." This week...it's whole chickens. Now the thought of buying a whole chicken might sound a little daunting, let me help show you that there's nothing to be daunted about! ;) Buying a whole chicken is certainly the cheapest option for chicken. The easiest and most practical thing to do with a whole chicken is to drop it … [Read more...]
Greek Gyro
We love Greek food. I don't make it nearly as often as I'd like because it usually takes a little more effort than time allots for a regular dinner. Not to mention I usually don't have a couple of the ingredients in the pantry. This recipe however, is much faster than a normal meal and great to make when you're herding children on those busy summer evenings. I like that it's … [Read more...]
Mexican Bean Tostadas – How to Make Tostadas
So it occurred to me at about 5 pm on Sunday (when the Super Bowl had not started yet...somehow in my head the game was supposed to be in the afternoon), that we needed to eat dinner. And while all the appetizers that I had out would have probably sufficed, I still wanted to have something "dinner-ish" to serve to the guys! (We'd hoped to have friends over...but that … [Read more...]
