Banana Chocolate Chip Doughnut. Salt and Pepper Pork Chops. Bowtie Pasta Crunchies - Leslie Durso. These are one of my favorite snacks!
Yes, they are fried, yes they are salty, yes they are delicious, and yes, they are addictive! My Grandmother made a version of these and me and my siblings always loved them! So how do you make these delectable treats you ask? They are so simple! Here you go: Bowtie Pasta Crunchies What you’ll need: 1 lb. bowtie pasta the juice of 1 lemon a handful of parmesan cheese (optional) kosher salt to taste What you’ll do: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add in the bowties and a handful of salt.
Working in batches, transfer some bowties into about 1/2 cup hot vegetable oil. When the edges get golden, flip. Mushroom Skewers. Mushroom Skewers I’m the only mushroom eater in the house.
So when I made these skewers, I ate one serving as a side and had a whole bunch of leftovers laying around in the fridge for an unknown, unplanned use. The next day, I tried them in a sandwich. Two days later, in another one. They were a delicious change from my usual lunches and a great way to cut back on meat a bit. On a newsy note, I’m knee-deep in redesigning the blog with the help of a very talented designer, as well as jotting down ideas of what to bake for Dinners & Dreams’ upcoming second birthday.
Both the new look and the celebratory cake are coming soon! Parmesan Roasted Potatoes. Ok fine.
I’m officially ready to make the transition to fall. And I thought, what better way to do it than with my all time favorite Parmesan Roasted Potatoes! These are like candy. 100% addictive. Once you stop, you just can’t stop. If you knew the amount of potatoes we consumed in a week, you’d be shocked. Jalapeño Popper Chicken. I’ve seen so many versions of this dish, but Jessica’s picture (and possibly the fact that I was starving) finally nudged me into sticking it to the menu the following week.
We used to have some form of stuffed chicken every week and for whatever reason we haven’t had it much lately. It was time. Now, I adore jalapeño poppers. And by “adore” what I really mean is “could eat them by the truckload.” They have pretty much everything going for them, including a little spice, some crunch, and creamy cheese. This chicken combines the great things about poppers and puts them into a much lighter and less guilty chicken dish. Not-so-Dumb Salad Recipe with Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Onions, Avocado, and Balsamic Vinegar.
There are a lot of salads with tomatoes and cucumbers on this blog.
That's partly because I love tomatoes and cucumbers and grow them in my garden every year. To me that combination just screams summer, but I also eat tomatoes and cucumbers all year (whenever I can get good flavorful tomatoes and Persian cucumbers from Costco.) So when a reader from Hawaii named Lisa sent me her recipe for "dumb salad" and said it was something she made often, I was interested. Lisa discovered this combination when she was going out of town and needed to use what was on hand, and I promise you, this salad idea that combines cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, avocado, and balsamic vinegar is not dumb at all! Of course, only make this when you have fresh flavorful tomatoes, but I loved the combination of flavors, accented with just a little good sea salt and some coarse ground black pepper. Black Bean, Corn and Avocado Salsa. Hey Everyone!
Happy Friday! Christopher Metts / Pinterest. Christopher Metts / Pinterest. A Turtle's Life for Me: Grilled Cheese... Adult-Style. I just inhaled one of my favorite grilled cheese sandwiches, so I thought I’d spread the love and share with y’all (impressive talk for somebody from PA, huh??).
All you need is fresh California Avocados, fresh mozzarella and a thin layer of pepperoni. Tomatoes would have been great, but you’ll have to take that up with the hubster who made his sandwich first. grrrr… The pepperoni gives it a nice subtle little kick, and really, is there anything in this world that isn’t better with avocado?? No. The answer is no. { Avocado and Grilled Corn Salad with Cilantro Vinaigrette } A few days ago, I arrived home from work to find a surprise at my front door.
It was a box addressed to me. Typically most boxes are addressed to my hubby, who is an avid Ebay participant. But this one was for me. I reviewed the package label to realize that is was from the Tastemaker program at Foodbuzz. As part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I received a box of fresh and nutritious California Avocados from the California Avocado Commission. The wheels of imagination went off in my head. French Onion Soup Stuffed Mushrooms.
Important note: this recipe has absolutely nothing to do with Thanksgiving.
I’m so glad I got that out. I feel cleansed! I whipped up these little mushroom appetizers yesterday for two reasons: 1. I love stuffed mushrooms in any form and am always thinking of fun little variations. 2. The Best Cookie Dough Dip. Just cook already: Chunky Avocado Salsa.
