My friend Leslie cooked these suckers up at a courthouse board meeting and they were nuts. We ended up making them the next night and it was a big winner with the fam. If you want something delicious that you can make in bulk, I highly recommend these. I changed the recipe a little bit … Continue reading French Onion Beef Sliders
Quick Meals
Grilled Beef and Broccoli
This recipe was great, I forgot how good grilling broccoli tastes! I didn’t do anything different from the original recipe. There was very little prep, and putting it together was just a matter of timing everything right. Good weekday meal, super fast.
Spicy Chicken and Bacon Mac
We had a birthday party to go to today and this recipe popped up in Flipboard this morning. I figured I would give it a try. It turned out excellent, spicy and creamy with some smoke flavor to it from the chicken I used. If you need to make a dish for a potluck, this … Continue reading Spicy Chicken and Bacon Mac
Black Bean and Salmon Tostadas
Man I despise canned fish. I find tuna fish in a can, or a fresh pack, really gross smelling. It smells like catfood to me. So I was browsing around for some healthier recipes and I found this one, but was skeptical. It hit all the right buttons with Erin and Kate: avocado, check. Fish, … Continue reading Black Bean and Salmon Tostadas
Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings
I've tried a lot of different baked wings recipes but none of them ever got close to what a fried wing tastes like. Until now! Baking powder is the magic ingredient and you end up with really crispy wings. Add to that a simple but tasty honey sriracha glaze and you are set. Go make … Continue reading Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings
Chengdu-Style Kung Pao Chicken
I managed to get around to cooking a new recipe tonight and it turned out good! Is it the same as the old China Town's Kung Pao? Nope. But it's close, and it was a fairly easy one to pull off. I will say it made a bit of a mess of my skillet, but … Continue reading Chengdu-Style Kung Pao Chicken
Slow Cooker Indian Butter Chicken
We can't make this recipe enough. The kids push to get this on the menu all the time, and it's a fast and easy meal. As long as you are good at cubing chicken. The end result is a creamy, tiki masala-like dish. You can make a mountain of this stuff and it makes for … Continue reading Slow Cooker Indian Butter Chicken
Thai Basil Chicken Bowls
This is one of our favorites, and it is amazingly fast to put together. When you are cooking it, you are going to question it until the very end. It smells kind of basic while cooking. But at the end, when you throw the mounds of basil in, the whole thing comes together and the … Continue reading Thai Basil Chicken Bowls
Cast Iron Honey-Sriracha Glazed Chicken with Root Vegetables
I love cooking in cast iron, so when I saw this recipe I was really excited. It did not disappoint, the chicken was very succulent and you can really never go wrong mixing honey with sriracha. Next time I do this, I'm going to try to add some different vegetables to it. Maybe sweet potatoes? … Continue reading Cast Iron Honey-Sriracha Glazed Chicken with Root Vegetables
Slammin’ Salmon
I like salmon all different ways, and Erin makes a great blackened salmon. But this recipe really kills it, the salmon takes on a lot of flavor but you don't lose the actual salmon taste. I think that makes sense. Anyway, if you have some hunks of salmon, go do this to them and serve … Continue reading Slammin’ Salmon
