These cookies have been one of my favorites to make for years. They are a staple in my holiday cookie gift boxes because they ship so well but are also really delicious. Since there are only a few ingredients, the browned butter flavor really shines through in these. If you have never made browned butterContinue reading “Brown Butter Shortbread Cookies”

Miss Fisher’s Mystery Cocktail
I have never seen or heard of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, but apparently it was a drama series in Australia about a private detective in the 1920’s. I’m not fully sure how this cocktail is related to that show, but it sounded pretty interesting and we love bourbon drinks so I decided to give itContinue reading “Miss Fisher’s Mystery Cocktail”
Texas Roadhouse Copycat Rolls
I have never actually eaten at Texas Roadhouse, so I have no idea if these rolls are good at the restaurant. These homemade Texas Roadhouse copycat rolls are delectable though! They are a great side with soup, salads, or chilis. The square shape is easier to make and more forgiving than traditional round dinner rollsContinue reading “Texas Roadhouse Copycat Rolls”
Jalapeno Popper Black Bean Burgers
I love a good burger. Especially my husband’s home ground and grilled burger patties. I also really love a great veggie burger or black bean burger. I saw this recipe on Domestic Super Hero and was intrigued by the jalapeno popper/black bean burger combo. This recipe is basically a black bean burger with onion, corn,Continue reading “Jalapeno Popper Black Bean Burgers”
Tim Tams
Tim Tams are an Australian biscuit (or cookie). I believe there is technically a difference between cookie and biscuit in the countries that use biscuit in terms of the texture of the baked good so even if using the word cookie it wouldn’t be applied here I think? Anyone an expert on this? 🙂 WeContinue reading “Tim Tams”
Chicken Paprikash
Chicken paprikash is a Hungarian dish of chicken simmered in a creamy, smoky paprika based sauce served over noodles, rice, or dumplings. A traditional version would use bone in chicken pieces, but this quicker weeknight version uses cut up chicken breasts so it cooks quickly. The sauce for the dish starts with melting some butterContinue reading “Chicken Paprikash”
Fresh Mozzarella, Sun Dried Tomato and Pesto Sandwich
This sandwich is one of those ‘what do I have in my freezer I need to use up’ meals 🙂 I made some homemade baguettes a while ago. I’ve also got some pesto from my summer basil in there. The combo of pesto and sun dried tomato is so yummy, so I decided on aContinue reading “Fresh Mozzarella, Sun Dried Tomato and Pesto Sandwich”
Pan Seared Pork Chops with Mustard Cider Sauce
Pork chops were not something I got excited about for most of my life. We’ve all eaten a dry, flavorless pork chop at some point. Pan seared pork chops with mustard cider sauce is not that dried up puck of tasteless pork. These chops are brined in a sugar/salt solution to help keep them moistContinue reading “Pan Seared Pork Chops with Mustard Cider Sauce”
Gnocchi Soup with Bacon and Rosemary
I love making soup for dinner in the fall and winter. It is so satisfying to sit down to a hot bowl of soup when it is cold outside. I also love that it is a way to get a lot of veggies into our meal in a way everyone likes. Gnocchi soup with baconContinue reading “Gnocchi Soup with Bacon and Rosemary”
The Good Salad
I think of this salad as ‘the good salad’ because it has a lot of yummy things and the combo of them together is kind of perfect. I usually serve it as a side salad with soup or a main dish featuring protein. You could easily increase the size, or add some chicken or shrimpContinue reading “The Good Salad”
