Crock Pot Chicken W Black Beans And Cream Cheese...yum! Recipe - Food.com - 89204. Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese Sandwich. April is National Grilled Cheese Sandwich month and that was all the excuse that I needed to try out some new grilled cheese sandwich recipes!
Not too long ago, while I was devouring a batch of the ever so addictive jalapeno popper dip, I was thinking about other ways to enjoy that amazing flavour combination and the idea that stuck was the one for a jalapeno popper grilled cheese sandwich. As soon as I had that thought I knew that I would have to try it and this was the perfect time! The basic idea was to incorporate the flavours and textures of jalapeno poppers in a grilled cheese sandwich and the first step was the jalapeno peppers themselves. I really could not see biting into a perfectly grilled sandwich with all of the melted gooey cheese and hitting hard raw jalapeno peppers and although pickled jalapeno peppers would likely have done the trick I decided to take the extra step and I roasted the peppers first. Don't have time to roast some fresh jalapenos? Printable Recipe.

Cheeseburger Pot Pie Recipe from Pillsbury. Spinach-Gorgonzola Pasta. I should start by saying that this dish is rich — certainly not for those still trying to stick to their New Years resolution. While cream sauced pasta might always be an off-limit item for calorie counters, it’s the Gorgonzola, ricotta and Parmesan cheese that makes this dish especially decadent and delicious. It’s this same indulgent quality that has people lined up around the block at Gayle’s Bakery & Rosticceria, a neighborhood fixture in a small beach town called Capitola, a few miles south of Santa Cruz in Northern California.
I visited Gayle’s for the first time in college on an adventure to find a solid, quality meal and a break from the less-than inspiring food of the dining hall. Craving something comforting more than anything, I felt right at home in front of their massive rotisserie and deli case packed with roasted chickens, slow barbecued ribs, potato salad and sandwiches. From Gayle’s Bakery & Rosticceria, Capitola, California Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Soy and Pepper: Sausage and mushroom penne in mustard cream sauce.
A friend made this for dinner (well, actually her husband did) when I visited their London flat a couple of years ago. It tasted so good that I asked them for the recipe (which was given verbally and informally) and recreated it myself when I got home. I added some mushrooms (can I say again how much we love mushrooms in this household?) But otherwise the recipe has changed very little. The mustard cream sauce goes really well with the meaty sausages. Ingredients (serves 2): Penne pasta (or other pasta shapes), 2 portions 3-4 meaty sausages 1 tbsp olive oil 1 clove garlic, minced 2-3 stalks of spring onions, sliced into 1 inch sections 4-5 mushrooms, thinly sliced 1 1/2 tsp wholegrain mustard 200ml single cream Salt and pepper 15g grated parmesan (optional) Small handful of basil leaves (optional) Method: 1. 3.

Layered Zucchini Parmesan | Handle the Heat. Kicked Up Tuna Melts. Is there something in your life that comes up seemingly out of the blue, but strangely happens every year? Ash Wednesday is like that for me. I know, there’s really no excuse, but I'm surprised every year. Why the problem? Well, my meal plan the Sunday before Ash Wednesday usually looks something like this: Monday, Macaroni and Cheese; Tuesday, Tortilla Soup; Wednesday, Beef Tacos; Thursday, Chinese Chicken; Friday, Pork Chops. About midway through dinner on Tuesday night, I realize the next day is Ash Wednesday, and we have already consumed the two meatless meals I had planned for the week. Scrambling ensues. I throw the meat I had planned to serve in the freezer, and then I have to come up with something else, something meatless to serve on Wednesday and Friday.
These Kicked Up Tuna Melts usually do the trick for a quick Lenten meal. So, I struggle to come up with quick healthy and meatless (but not necessarily fishless) meals during Lent.

Is it weird that Valentines Day is one of my #1 favorite holidays? Especially considering the fact that I can't actually remember the last time I've had a boyfriend during this emo-as-hell day? Maybe it's just that I le love the idea of love (and that i want my life to be a magnetic fields song). But this also might stem from my preconceived ideas about living in New York. When I moved up here I had this really romantic idea that I'd find a super cute boyfriend who listened to good music, had a nice pup pup, and a sweet smile.
Whenever we'd walk around, Jens Lekman and Todd Rundgren would be playing in the background and we'd drink bottles of wine all day in Central Park and laugh until our teeth fell out. BUT NOPE - not so much. Though for some reason or another (maybe it's just the Stevie Nicks in me) it's really easy for me to forget about all the d-bags I've dated (ok, so i guess there are a few nice ones mixed in there... somewhere) and be semi-optimistic about the future. semi. .
Artichoke Stuffed Turkey Burgers. I am drafting this post on September 6th, but you're reading it today, on September 21st. On September 6th, I am refusing to accept that Summer is on its way out and Fall (and close behind it the big evil W*****) is arriving here in St. Louis. As much as I'm loving the cool morning runs and the ability to turn on my oven without infuriating my heat sensitive husband, I'm in denial that the dog days of Summer are now just a memory, at least for the next 9 months or so.
Sigh. In my denial, we'll keep grilling out, so long as Ryan's willing to man the grill. If you're in the same boat as me, appease your summer-loving spirit with these turkey burgers.

Baked Cheesy Chicken Bake. Today’s recipe is a cheesy baked pasta that I found over at Our Best Bites . Sara based the recipe on a Martha Stewart recipe. This yummy dish consists of a cheesy pasta blended with chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and mushrooms. Now I know the sun-dried tomatoes aren’t something most of you probably keep on had, so you could just leave them out if you like. Then just up the amount of chicken or mushrooms by 1 cup or I was thinking some broccoli or asparagus tips would also work well in place of the tomatoes.
I did however really enjoy the sun-dried tomatoes in this dish but some of my family did eat around them. Another great thing about this recipe is it makes two – 2 quart dishes. When I made this recipe I also decided to try it with some pasta samples that I had received from Ronzoni .

Chicken Enchiladas.
Aka the best enchiladas ever! Thank you so much to Laura, at Tide and Thyme, for introducing me to this recipe. Seriously - they were so so good I can't even tell you. So good in fact, that the leftovers are really calling my name, and I'm trying so hard to resist.... OK so on to the recipe. I followed her recipe pretty closely, with the exception of a few minor changes. I added diced fresh jalapenos with the onion at the beginning; consequently, I omitted the pickled jalapenos from the filling. I also added a big tomato (diced) in with the tomato sauce and water to cook down. Seriously, make these ASAP!
