I’m one of those people who meal-plans one week at a time before grocery shopping. Occasionally, I will ask Cole if he has any preferences for the week. (Sidenote, I should ask him more often…whoops.) Usually when I ask this question he will shrug and say, “Doesn’t matter,” but if he ever does have aContinue reading “Four Ingredient Cheez-It Chicken Nuggets”

Cinnamon French Toast
There are two items in life that Cole and I will always completely agree on. First, sleeping in until 9:30 on the weeknd is the perfect schedule, and second, that brunch is always better than having both breakfast and lunch. This combo of events means that I have practiced making many different breakfast dishes overContinue reading “Cinnamon French Toast”
Sirloin Tip Roast
One of the easiest ways to cook for a crowd is to buy a large roast and shove it in the oven. Many people are intimidated by large beef roasts because they take a substantial amount of time to cook, but overall, they are one of the fastest items you could prepare, so if youContinue reading “Sirloin Tip Roast”
Super Soft Peanut Butter Blossoms
It is my personal belief that all cookies are better when they are super soft. There is nothing more disappointing than picking up a cookie and discovering it’s crunchy. This summer I was in charge of baking a dessert for a family reunion. Cole’s family reunion is a very active event, with people grabbing snacksContinue reading “Super Soft Peanut Butter Blossoms”
Cheesy Monterey Mashed Potatoes
Everyone has a favorite way to eat potatoes, and I believe that mashed potatoes are the winner. However, mashed potatoes can be a bit of a let down for people that don’t like gravy considering that is the typical topper for the dish. Cole is one of those people that strongly dislikes gravy, and heContinue reading “Cheesy Monterey Mashed Potatoes”
Steak Quesadillas
Cole and I typically only have steak a couple times per year on special occasions such as our anniversary and New Year’s Eve. It’s the one red meat that Cole truly seems to enjoy. Because of this, I typically buy too much when I’m shopping for these special occasions, and we end up with someContinue reading “Steak Quesadillas”
Homemade Bread
Before the pandemic, I heavily preferred cooking to baking. While this is still true today, one of the items I have enjoyed baking is various different kinds of bread. In fact, it has gotten to the point where I no longer buy bread from the store and stick to making my own instead. When IContinue reading “Homemade Bread”
Roasted Cornish Hens
As I mentioned in my last post, one of the elements of cooking I am trying to perfect is being able to utilize leftovers to minimize my grocery budget. My favorite way of achieving this goal so far is by roasting chickens. Cole and I only like the white meat when the chicken is initiallyContinue reading “Roasted Cornish Hens”
Cheesy Beef Enchiladas
Cole and I started dating when we were both in high school, but we lived in separate towns 45 minutes apart. This meant I only got to visit him on the weekends. However, one of the huge perks of weekend visits was that his step-dad always cooked large family meals, and he usually was inventiveContinue reading “Cheesy Beef Enchiladas”
Roasted Parmesan Zucchini Coins
In my opinion, zucchini is one of the most underrated healthy foods. It can be used in so many different ways and tastes delicious! So, with that being said, this recipe is one of my favorite quick side dishes. It is so, so easy to make, and only spends 5-7 minutes in the oven. YouContinue reading “Roasted Parmesan Zucchini Coins”
