Brittany's PantryMarshmallow Buttercream
Remember a few posts back when I mentioned things that I wish I had been doing all along? Well, in addition to ‘using an eyelash-curler’, this frosting recipe has now topped that list. Last week, my oldest had her 6th birthday party. It was flower themed and I confess that I pushed for it because it…
Tofu Chocolate Pudding
Mmm. Just look at that chocolate pudding. Creamy. Dreamy. Rich and decadent. Don’t you just love tofu? What? Tofu? Uh huh! That’s what I said! Tofu. Hard to believe isn’t it? But there it is. And yes, it tastes as good as it looks. My history with tofu, a soybean based protein, is…
Sweet Potato Salad W/Vinaigrette
Have you ever made a minor change in something in your life and then thought, why didn’t I do this before? Like switching from vegetable oil to canola oil. Or growing a garden. Or ditching the use of lip liner. That is what this recipe was for me. I had cut out…
Hobo Dinners
I am going to try to explain how happy this post makes me. This meal, a Hobo Dinner, is the kind of thing that will make your wallet happy (you can easily feed four people for less than 5 bucks), will keep your house cool when the temperature rises, and will break…
Fruit Dip: Oldie But A Goodie
Sometimes I find myself hesitating to blog about one thing or another because I am afraid it is too basic, to simple, or too well known. I always wonder if you are all giving a collective sigh and eye roll. Please believe me when I say that I am not trying to…
Freezer Fajitas
Yes, this picture is just a pile of meat. Mmm….it makes my heart beat a little faster. Yum! A few posts back I mentioned a brief list of some of the meals I had stashed in the freezer. Steak fajitas was one of them and since we made them this week, I thought…
Cherry Frozen Yogurt W/ Mini Chocolate Chips
I knew I had a winner with this recipe when my husband dug into the freezer container and filled his empty coffee mug right up to the top with this frozen yogurt. Make no mistake. This is tangy and wonderful and so refreshing it will give you chills. No pun intended… The…
Root Beer Baked Beans
The above picture is a little bowl of hearty goodness. Even if you are not a baked beans fan, this recipe is a standout dish that you will want to make frequently. It has already been added to my list of summer menus, and I have plans to bring it as a side…
Sticky Chicken-Roast Chicken From The Freezer
There are certain times when I wish you could smell a picture. Now is one of those times. And please note that part of the above picture is fuzzy because the steam was pouring off this baby like a volcano and filling my screen porch (where I take 99% of my pictures)…
Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
Ah. Sweet potatoes. That vitamin packed veggie that can be sweet or savory and seems to be the favorite of babies everywhere. They also happen to be a major player at our house. I have mentioned these before, but thought I would give them their own post. These ‘fries’ are simple and go with…
Strawberry-Avocado Salad W/Honey Lime Vinaigrette
I had this recipe in mind to share with you from the beginning of this blogs creation and for reasons I don’t quite understand, I just have never gotten around to it. My bad. Please don’t judge the recipe by the simple picture above. The lettuce combo I happened to have in…
Lemon Potatoes
I just realized that this is the second potato recipe I have posted in a week. But hey! Its all good! Everyone loves a potato, right? Besides. St Patty’s Day is coming up and I wanted to post lots of potato recipes for you and-oh who am I kidding??!! Not really. I…
Black Bean Salsa
If you happen to be looking for a new recipe for the upcoming sporting event this weekend, well, your search is over. For me personally, it is less about the actual game (I don’t even know who is playing) or the halftime show (the last time I watched it Janet Jackson had…
Asian Turkey Lettuce Wraps
So here I am sitting at the computer, ready to fill this blank page with what I hope you all see as witty and inspiring words to encourage all of you to get in your kitchens and cook. Well…maybe not witty, but hopefully inspiring… Yup! My kids are occupied watching a movie-The…
How To: Poach Chicken
Poaching chicken is one of those things that I think health food experts expect people to do but few people actually do it. I am going to be straight with you. It ain’t pretty. Poached chicken is one of those things that is just a means to an end. It is an…
