Growing up, one of my favorite things to order when out to dinner with my family was Irish nachos. Although traditional Irish nachos are made with sliced potatoes, I have always preferred the versions made with french fries. I was inspired to recreate this delicious dish over the weekend to accompany a day full of football. Since I was just making this dish for myself and my husband, the portion size is for approximately two people, but go ahead and double or triple the ‘recipe’ (it’s not much of a recipe!) if you are entertaining more guests.
Gluten-free, vegetarian, low cal, vegan…this dish is none of those things. Whoops! But I swear to you it’s ridiculously delicious. The casserole is hearty (as you can see), so a small piece will satisfy your hunger. Whip this up for your friends and family over the weekend and maybe serve it with a fruit platter or something. It’s all about balance, right? :-) continue reading ››
Searching for a dish to spruce up your weekend brunch? Look no further! This migas is full of flavor, hearty, healthy-ish, and easy on the eyes – making it the perfect breakfast to serve a table full of friends or family. I can’t wait to make this again soon.
Wow, it’s been a minute since I’ve posted! With work getting busier by the minute, I haven’t had as much time to document all of my recipes, but I am trying to get back on track. I made this jalapeño popper dip over Christmas break and it was to.die.for. It was an absolute hit with friends and family and you can bet I will be making it again soon!
One of my favorite gifts I received for my birthday the other week was The L.A. Cookbook, which includes delicious recipes from some of LA’s best restaurants. My husband and I have yet to make the trek to Union Pasadena, but now that we have this cookbook, we can make their incredible pasta with pork ragu whenever we want. The original recipe calls for tagliatelle, but we used pappardelle since that was what we had!
On the hunt for the perfect addition to your Taco Tuesday, football Sunday or get together with friends? Look no further! This hatch chile sausage queso is silky smooth and delicious. I guarantee it will be gobbled down in no time and leave you wanting more.
Hello everyone! It’s been a minute since I last posted – I was busy planning a wedding and tying the knot! Although I was still cooking during my time away, I was never able to find the time to stage and photograph all of the food I was making! I’m hoping to be back on track now and blogging once every week or every other week. :-)
Hi everyone! It’s been a minute (or a couple months) since I last posted. With a busy work schedule and back-to-back weekends of weddings, bridal showers, bachelorettes – you name it – I haven’t found much time to get in the kitchen! We finally had a weekend at home with absolutely no plans, so we decided to make these incredibly delicious cheeseburger tater tot cups. I found these gems on Pinterest and made a few tweaks to the recipe and boy, were they a hit. These tots are the perfect appetizer for football Saturday and/or Sunday!
Chili is one of my favorite meals to cook – not only because it’s delicious, but also because it makes enough to have leftovers the remainder of the week. This turkey chili is hearty, full of flavor and will have you craving seconds every time.
Lasagna is one of my favorite dishes to cook. Although the process is somewhat laborious, the dish is delicious and provides at least one week’s worth of leftovers! My fiancé and I ate this lasagna for dinner and brought the rest to work for lunch the remainder of the week. The ground turkey and vegetables provide a delicious alternative to the classically prepared lasagna with beef.
