I came to the realization a few years ago that ultimately (except for the rare person like my friend Alison), most people just want warm chocolate chip cookies for dessert. I could make something fancy like panna cotta or pavlova and that would be nice, but we are basically just children and we just...
Almost 700 recipes on here and this is the first one for chicken wings. There are like, twenty for scones though. Clearly I like to cook what I like to eat. Chicken wings have never been my favorite; that is, until I had the olive oil and herb wings at Anthony’s Coal Fire Pizza...
I’d gotten lazy (or should I say, busy) and stopped making hummus at home. For a while I stopped buying it at all, but my toddler adores the stuff and eats it like baby food so when I saw this recipe in my ATK magazine, I knew I had to try it.
A frittata is an Italian omelette that isn’t folded; the open faced omelette is either flipped or put under a broiler to set the top. I’ve made a few frittata and I’m not gonna lie – they stress me out. Either the bottom gets too brown or the top is a bit runny –...
Do you know about frozen puff pastry? I love the stuff because the homemade version is really hard to make and not necessarily better tasting. I consistently keep a box of Pepperidge Farm frozen puff pastry in my freezer because truly, the possibilities are endless.
In the matter of a few weeks, my parents, in-laws, and husband all learned first hand how amazing Chick-fil-A is. They were going on and on about the kind elderly man that brings you extra sauces, the amazing milkshakes (and frozen lemonades), and the fried chicken sandwich that never quits being the most delicious...
OH man. I’ve found my new go-to app. It’s crowd pleasing, naturally gluten free, and hearty enough to keep a pretty big group of people satisfied – kids included (Tessa’s a big fan). I got the idea from my favorite enchilada recipe and barely adapted the amounts to make it just a bit creamier,...
Alternate title: So Easy a Middle Schooler Could Make Them. Seriously. My middle school students made this exact recipe. Now, there are plenty of simple recipes that my middle schoolers made that I wouldn’t deem bloggable, but this is not one. These pretzels have a crisp exterior with a chewy center; the flavor has...
When we lived in downtown West Chester, walking up to town for dinner happened a fair amount (especially when the weather was nice and before we had two kids). In working out that 80/20 rule of healthy eating, this meant I ordered salads a fair amount. Now solidly in the burbs, a dinner out...
I have an awesome neighbor that shares her magazines with me, so I have a bunch of People’s lying around. I always make sure to check the recipes in the back but rarely do I pull one out; this spinach dip was a rare exception. The short ingredient list was right up my alley and...
