Smoky Sweet Potato Burgers with Roasted Garlic Cream and Avocado
Before we talk burgers, let me tell you what I’m doing. I’m eating some blueberry yogurt pretzels (which are oh-so awesome… but would be even awesomer if they were really coated in yogurt and not white chocolate disguised as yogurt) and drinking a san pellgrino aranciata that is spiked with um… vodka, malibu and tequila. With those pretty perfectly square ice cubes. I know. I just couldn’t decide! I just kept adding things to the soda until I got a taste that I liked.
Siu Mai
31st May 2012By KurtPhotography by Adam These little bite-sized morsels are my absolute favourite item from the yum char menu. I quite often meet my wife and her family for a yum char lunch during the week. It makes a nice little break from my working day, and even better the restaurant is right across the road from the office. Three things always happen; we order way too much food, we eat all of it (even if our sides are splitting), then we quietly make our way back to work for a little nap. Well not quite a nap, but a very slow couple of hours!
Bacon Wrapped Jalapenos
One of the best grilled appetizers is bacon wrapped jalapeno peppers. This recipe is so easy to make and it only consist of 3 ingredients; fresh jalapenos peppers, cream cheese, and bacon. The jalapeno peppers are first sliced in half then seeded, stuffed with cream cheese, wrapped with bacon and grilled. You should consider wearing gloves when slicing and seeding the jalapenos because they can burn your hands. With the play offs coming up and the super bowl near this is a perfect recipe for game day. Enjoy.
Homemade Baked Mozzarella Sticks
Mozzarella sticks are a delicious treat, probably one of the most popular appetizers at restaurants, and a fun party food. They tend to be rather fattening, especially considering they are usually fried, but they are so irresistibly tasty. So how do you give in to the temptation that is mozzarella sticks without the guilt? Make healthy, Baked Mozzarella Sticks! Here is a recipe I love, and your family will too.
Baked Potato Grilled Cheese
Behold my latest creation…THE BAKED POTATO GRILLED CHEESE! After the glory that was the Brocolli & Cheddar Soup Grilled Cheese , I began racking my brain for what other wonderful things I could deconstruct into grilled cheese format. Soon enough I had envisioned this piece of grilled cheese heaven! I mean how can you go wrong with fried potatoes, bacon, cheese, sour cream and chives all made into a melty grilled cheese?
Buffalo Chicken Rolls
I’m thinking we’re very comfortable together at this point, me and you. You and me. At best, we’re virtual soul mates bonded through food and cooking. At worst, we’re in a one-sided pen pal relationship and you’re not keeping up your end of the bargain. I’m tired of paying for postage when you never write back. But really, it’s mostly good, isn’t it?
Oreo Lasagna
Colin Joliat Oreo lasagna is a perfect alternative to cake, or lasagna, or pretty much any food. It’s easy enough that even I could figure out how to make it. Step your food game up with this dish fit for the internet. I come across a lot of things that make me say, “I should definitely try that.”
Homemade Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels
Remember those big soft cinnamon pretzels you’d buy at the mall after spending your babysitting money at Contempo Casual? These are like waaaay better. I think they might be my new guilty pleasure. Right out of the oven hot, sugary, and buttery-they’re amazing! Keep reading for the recipe and more photos of the process… Check out the recipe I followed here at Our Best Bites , and below are some photos of the process as well: The boiling with baking soda water (similar to making homemade bagels which I did here) is such a great trick to make the outside crusty and the insides soft!
Recipe for Spicy Shrimp Sandwich with Chipotle Avocado Mayonnaise at Life
I will be the first one to admit that I am not a huge sandwich person. Ryan loves them. He loves sub sandwiches, turkey sandwiches, roast beef sandwiches, meatloaf sandwiches, meatball sandwiches…I could go on and on.
Braided Spaghetti Bread
We are carb lovers at our house, so when I saw the Braided Spaghetti Bread recipe in the Rhodes Home Baked Family Favorites with frozen dough cookbook I knew we would love it. This is a really simple recipe; it just takes a little planning for thawing the dough. It will take 2-3 hours for the bread loaf to thaw to room temperature or 1-2 hours for the rolls to thaw to room temperature.
Parmesan Crusted Fried Mashed Potato Cakes
In our house, you’ll find it’s a very rare occasion when there is leftover mashed potatoes. Aside from my potato loving self, my daughter Kaydence is a mashed potato fanatic. Her potato cravings have gotten so ridiculous that when we all sat down to watch a movie the other night, instead of reaching for the bowl of popcorn my husband popped, she ran in the kitchen to grab my bowl of leftover mashed potatoes from dinner and proceeded to finger dip in the bowl. It’s her obsession. However, this week she’s been sick and there were a few nights her appetite was so low that we ended up with a quart sized bag of taters left over.
Mema’s Whole Wheat Bread
This post is sponsored by {*style:<a href=' Toll House® Morsels, the perfect special ingredient for all of your family’s favorite treats! One of the favorite memories of my grandmother (who we called Mema) was the homemade whole wheat bread she would make at least once a week for as long as I can remember. Sometimes we’d help her, sometimes we’d just watch her quick hands work, but it was always a highlight of our visits. She used the same recipe for decades.
