Butternut Squash, Kale And Sausage

October 8th, 2014Tina29 Comments

How do you get someone to eat something that they don’t like? Combine that item with food that they DO like. I think you’re either from the school of “I live for kale” or “I can’t stand the stuff.” My husband blows that theory by being somewhere in the middle. He’ll eat it, but he definitely won’t seek it out on purpose. He does however love butternut squash and sausage (even turkey sausage, like I used here). Was I being sneaky by throwing some kale into the combo? Not especially. Frankly it’s a pretty bright green which makes it hard …

Oreo Brownies

October 3rd, 2014Tina38 Comments

Everyone can make brownies. It doesn’t matter if you’re an expert baker or if you’re on a budget, you can find a brownie recipe that works for you. (Or buy a box mix for cheap if you aren’t feeling making it from scratch, but that’s not what this post is about.) Brownies unite us! What, too dramatic? I’m partial to my Fudgy Brownies that I’ve been making for years. They are quick and easy to whip up. If you’re a beginner baker then it is a great recipe for you. Plus, there’s a reason why I’ve made them a trillion times and I continue to make …

Skillet Pasta And Chicken Parmesan

October 1st, 2014Tina16 Comments

It’s been a busy few weeks. If I’m busy now, then where will I find the time to fit in preparing for the holidays? Yes, I’m already thinking about Christmas. (Don’t hate me.) #plannerextraordinaire This pasta is coated in a light tomato based sauce. I like a little sauce on my pasta so I’m totally good with that. My husband, on the other hand, likes A LOT of sauce, so if you’re like him then this meal might not be up your alley (just being honest). Usually my quick pasta dinners are vegetarian, but this quickie is a nice option for when you want …

Cauliflower Poppers

September 29th, 2014Tina34 Comments

It’s football season and you know what that means… we need some kinda game food. Let’s face it, even if you’re not into football, snacks and appetizers are always fun to eat, like these cauliflower poppers. Let me start by saying that these poppers do not have cheese in them (in case you are like my husband who thinks poppers = veggies and cheese). On to the business at hand. Cauliflower. I bought a head of cauliflower, having no particular recipe to use it in. Since it’s one of my favorite veggies I knew I’d come up with some way …

Apple Cheese Danish

September 26th, 2014Tina46 Comments

Pumpkin versus apple goodies… ah, the infamous Autumn food debate! Do you have a favorite? You may think that baking a cheese danish is complicated. You know because it looks all fancy dancy with its braid affect. This one is really easy though, I promise. I’ve even included step by step photos to prove it. My husband likes loads and loads of detailed steps so I’ve decided to take a page from his book here. Hello gorgeous danish. I’ve even impressed myself, which is a rare thing. This danish has the perfect ratio of dough to cheese filling to apples. The cheese filling is creamy and perfectly sweetened. It’s …
