Looking for a decadent easy Valentines dessert? How about a thick rich homemade chocolate chip cookie with big chunks of semi-sweet chocolate, a gooey creamy caramel center, topped with more cookie, more chocolate, and coarse salt sound? Serve it with a scoop of vanilla, or coffee flavored ice cream and throw in a few chocolate covered strawberries…all in the name of L.O.V.E.
Creamed Turkey ‘n’ Biscuits reminds me of my Dad! Every year after Thanksgiving he would take all the left over turkey “bits” and create this old fashioned meal. It’s pure comfort food and still one of my all time favorite meals. Don’t have any Turkey…that’s okay! You can use his smaller cousin … “chicken” instead!
I rescued a couple of poor little banana’s…like seriously pulled them out of the death clutch of Mr. Nest! He wanted to know what I was going to do with those “icky” ol’ bananas? So I took out my magic wand and made this delicious, moist, and fluffy banana cake with a silky smooth cream cheese frosting…then I just sat back and watched the potential executioner eat three pieces!
This Raspberry Pecan Feta Cheese Salad is a copy cat recipe from a local restaurant. It’s one of my favorite salads! It helps that I’m a HUGE Raspberry fan! This salad is loaded…L.O.A.D.E.D. with flavor! Crunchy candied pecans, sweet tender raspberries, tangy creamy feta cheese, and luscious avocado all on a bed of spring mix and topped with a homemade raspberry vinaigrette! Bonus points for how pretty and easy it is to make!
What do you do when you have a left over bag of Reese’s Peanut Butter Santa’s after the Holidays? Why you chop them up and make up a batch of these Ultimate Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies! Then you sit back, eat 6-7 cookies, pat your belly, and give a hearty “ho-ho-ho”! The great cookie eater becomes the cookie! Sorry, not sorry, Santa!
Finger Foods are the BEST food for a Big Football game…if you happen to know of any coming up! These Mini Beef Flautas are oven baked to a crisp and served with fresh made Guacamole. They’re SO good your guests may forget there’s a game on! Welll…maybe not…but they’ll enjoy the eats!!
