Let me introduce you to my new favorite snack. Or more accurately, let me introduce you to my new favorite healthy snack. Because let’s be real, I’d still rather eat chips and dip. But these spice roasted chickpeas are up there! This is actually really shocking to me because chickpeas have never been high on my list…
JERK CHICKEN
Today’s guest post is courtesy of our resident grillaholic, Stephen. _____________________________________________________________________ This never-ending winter in Boston makes me daydream of a last-minute trip to a tropical locale. When that’s not feasible, I like to eat my way out of the winter blues with some food from the islands. In this case Jamaica. While I’ve never…
Peanut Noodles With Chili Oil
I like peanut butter. Peanut butter sandwiches aren’t bad and I’ll occasionally eat a spoonful of peanut butter if I’m starving and there are no other easy snacks. It’s good, filling, and I like it. Stephen on the other hand, LOVES peanut butter. He could probably eat an entire jar in a couple days even…
Breakfast Pizza
As I’ve mentioned in the past, I am seriously crazy about breakfast foods. Bagels, salmon, bacon, pancakes, waffles, bacon, french toast, blintzes, eggs, bacon, hash browns, granola, and did I mention bacon? I love it all and I can’t get enough. So it makes me especially sad that I end up eating oatmeal for breakfast 5…
Vegetable Dumplings
It’s Friday, people! Woot woot! Shall we celebrate with some vegetable dumplings? Wait, does everyone else love dumplings too? Or is it weird that I’m so excited by these? There’s just something about a little package of food with dipping sauces that I really love. And I love that you can put pretty much anything…
WHISKEY CARAMEL SAUCE
It’s crazy to me now, but I used to think I hated caramel. For a long time, my only experience with caramel was the overly sweet caramel found in boxes of cheap chocolates, and I super duper hated it. I mean no offense to those who love that stuff, I certainly have my own guilty…
Jack Rose Cocktail
I don’t know about you, but I am definitely ready for a Sunday night cocktail. I had actually intended to post about The Old Vermont cocktail today. I had seen the recipe last week and thought the gin, maple syrup, and the citrus combination sounded tasty and interesting. Plus I was just really excited to…
Elvis Fluffernutter Cupcakes
Wow. This cupcake is all sorts of amazing. It is a banana cupcake + whipped peanut butter filling + fluffy marshmallow frosting. It sounds like it might be either delicious or gross, and I’m here to tell you that it is 100% delicious. Seriously. Stephen celebrated his birthday last week and we had a fun…
Ginger Peach Fizz Cocktail
I think I might be on a bit of a ginger cocktail kick these days. You can add ginger to anything and suddenly it feels appropriate for winter. I really enjoyed the simplicity of the bourbon and ginger cocktail from last week, but we don’t usually keep ginger ale around the house. Luckily, we pretty much…
Sausage Kolache With Jalapenos And Cheese
Exactly 9 years ago, Stephen and I spent a rainy and snowy week in Paris. We had limited vacation funds, it was freezing, and the weather was an annoying mix of rain and snow. But we had an amazing trip. We had both visited the city in the past and had seen all the major…
