One of the reasons you rarely see beef recipes on my blog is because they're so gosh darn hard to photograph. I've got pictures upon pictures of meatloaf and meatball recipes that I can't use because they look, well, horrible. With beef having such a dark brown exterior, it does no good for pictures even… Continue reading Texas Pot Roast

Texas Fudge
Have you ever heard of fudge made with Velveeta? I'm not talking about a savory, cheesy fudge. I'm talking about a chocolate fudge that gets its creaminess from Velveeta cheese. That's a weird recipe I stumbled upon in an old church cookbook a few years ago. I googled it and apparently making fudge with Velveeta… Continue reading Texas Fudge
Lady Bird Johnson’s Barbecue Chicken
I've been bed-and-couch bound for the last 36 hours. A cold has hit me like a ton of bricks and I've been doing everything in my power to feel like a normal human being again.

Iced tea is always served with sugar on the side. One sweet… Continue reading White Texas Sheet Cake
Texas Caviar Dip
Ah, the rain. Lovely rain. These past few days we've seen it rain almost non-stop. I'm okay with that. I pretty much hate the sun. Cloudy, overcast, drizzly weather is what I prefer. I would like to see some sunshine today, though. We're having our annual storm chaser barbecue at our Chief Meteorologist's house, and… Continue reading Texas Caviar Dip
Texas Tabbouleh
I've spent the better part of the afternoon sweeping up roly poly and cricket carcasses around the house. For some weird reason, my house has turned into a bug graveyard. This dead bug explosion has driven me to the brink. There are also dead little black beetles everywhere. EVERYWHERE. I have no clue what they are or where they are coming… Continue reading Texas Tabbouleh
