Banoffee Pie
When you mix bananas and toffee you get, Banoffee. The neatest thing about this recipe, as if I didn’t already love sweetened condensed milk enough, is you bake the condensed milk can in the oven and it magically turns into toffee!! I heard about this recipe from a friend, who said she tried it, and the […]
Birthday Cake Pancakes
For DT’s birthday I decided to make him birthday cake pancakes. I saw this genius idea in Rachael Ray’s August Magazine. You simply make any box cake mix or homemade cake mix, mix the eggs, water and oil, make your pancakes with the batter, choose the icing of your choice, mix in a little milk […]
Breakfast Pizza
I ran across this unique pizza recipe on Pinterest and knew I had to try it. I am in constant search for new and unique ways to eat eggs, and this has everything my family loves, so it was a must try, in my book. The boys loved helping me make the pizza, and loved […]
Tres Leches Cake
I made this cake for my mom’s birthday. She loves Tres Leches (three milks) Cake. Loves it! So I was happy to oblige. This cake is heaven and hell all in one. First off, it requires a massive amount of dishes and not 1 or 2 but 3 different uses of the stand mixer. Three different cleans […]
Chocolate Chip Biscotti
I always love something perfectly sweet to dip into my hot morning coffee. These Biscotti fit the bill perfectly. Surprisingly simple to make and a fun way to eat a cookie biscuit!! They are double baked, and that allows for the extra crunch, though they aren’t too hard. The fun with this recipe is that […]
Fuego Fresco
You all know I love a good cocktail, and one with tequila, cucumbers and jalapenos, yum….. But with the addition of egg white? What? I had never heard of adding egg whites to a drink, but the thought is genius. The egg white is mostly for visual presentation and texture on the tongue, as it […]

Fried Green Tomatoes
Ever since DT started gardening I’ve slowly been forced encouraged to take an active role in the garden and I’ve wanted to make fried green tomatoes. Of course, one of my all time favorite movies could have slightly influenced me, though year after year we always let the tomatoes ripen and use them in the […]
Caramel Croissant Pudding
This week’s Food Network Chefs Cooking Challenge hosted by I Blame My Mother is Nigella Lawson. I’ve seen her show a few times and she always seems to make delicious and simple foods. The second I saw her Caramel Croissant pudding I knew I must try it, and it looked so easy. I like to […]
Huevos Rancheros
One of DT’s favorite meals when we use go out to eat is Huevos Rancheros, a classic Mexican breakfast. So I thought I would surprise him and recreate it at home. If you’ve never heard of them they are basically fried eggs with a cooked salsa served on or sometimes crumbled in corn tortillas, they […]
