Oh boy, this recipe is a doozy. I spotted it in my St. Paul Lutheran Church cookbook from Vernon, Texas and knew I had to make it. "Armadillo eggs" are stuffed jalapenos wrapped in a sausage-cheese mixture. This recipe also called for rolling them in Shake n' Bake mix, which I did. This is a… Continue reading Armadillo Eggs

Sweet Potato Skins
This is the perfect time of year to start experimenting in the kitchen. There are football games to be watched, pumpkin patches to be visited, and marshmallows to be roasted. Why not experiment with foods that are perfect for those events? I love to have a good snack during a football-watching-spree of a weekend. Sometimes… Continue reading Sweet Potato Skins
Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels
My fall decor is officially up and my pumpkin & apple candles are lit. Too bad it's 94 degrees outside. I'm more ready for fall than I am for anything else right now. I'm ready for the temperatures to dip and the hay rides to begin. Every retail store in the nation has had fall/Halloween… Continue reading Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels
Spring Pea & Feta Dip
I've spent the last few weeks outside cleaning up flower gardens and planting. It's one of my most favorite times of year: spring. My veggie garden is already starting to sprout (carrots and rainbow chard, here we come!) and I still have plenty of pots and soil I need to use up with some summer,… Continue reading Spring Pea & Feta Dip
Fiesta Ranch Dip
If you've got plans for the Super Bowl, make sure you make room for this dip. I'm a dip fanatic and love trying new dips. I spotted this simple recipe online and decided to test it out before the big game. Boy, was I in for a treat. There are only four ingredients in this… Continue reading Fiesta Ranch Dip
Cocoa Bourbon Balls
The holiday baking season is here! I've officially made my first treats of the season. Funnily enough, though, they were both no-bake treats. It still counts though, right? This recipe came from one of my old recipe tins. I must've written it down somewhere between 8-10 years ago. While I was going through the tin… Continue reading Cocoa Bourbon Balls
Sausage & Pepper Wontons
I was gifted a few cookbooks the other day and I immediately set out to cook something from inside of them. A few things in an air-fryer centric cookbook caught my eye and almost all of them were wontons/potstickers. I have long been cooking wontons in my air fryer (my favorite are the Bibigo chicken… Continue reading Sausage & Pepper Wontons
Cheese Tot Skewers
If there's one thing I like about certain recipes, it's how easy they are to make. Nothing beats making a four-course meal in 30 minutes. It's a thrill making dozens of appetizers for a crowd when it take less effort than putting on clothes. Easy recipes are my favorite. It's even better when a recipe… Continue reading Cheese Tot Skewers
Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
Let's face it: this Memorial Day weekend will not be like any we've had before. Sure, it's the first signal of summer, but kids have been home for the last 3 months. Summer seems like it started in March this year because of the pandemic. Not only that, but you can rule out any large… Continue reading Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
Mediterranean Couscous Salad
I'm still over here trying to use up all of my couscous. It's been weeks and the stuff never runs out! I've been getting creative in the kitchen trying to come up with ways to use the little pasta pearls. I've done main dishes, side dishes, and now salads. I refuse to buy any other… Continue reading Mediterranean Couscous Salad
