Wingin’ It
I’ve been on a chicken wing kick lately. There’s just something about them that I can’t get enough of. Sure, they are messy to eat, but picking every juicy morsel off the bone is pretty satisfying 🙂 There are a lot of words I would use to describe chicken wings…oven baked, grilled, crispy, sticky, sweet, spicy, saucy, tender, juicy, etc.…but it all depends on the recipe. There is also the debate of boneless vs. bone-in chicken. Is it really a chicken wing if it’s boneless? I used to only eat boneless wings because I didn’t want to do the work but now, I usually prefer bone-in wings because they a bit more succulent. I think a lot of people would agree. I started experimenting with different sauce flavors and came up with some fun Asian inspired recipes that I want to share with you today: General Tso’s Chicken Wings Kung … Continue reading

Tricks…but mostly treats
Halloween might look a little different this year but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some spooky treats! I for one, love Halloween and all the fun food, scary movies, and candy. I’m sure a lot of families are deciding what is right for them…do you send your kids out to trick-or-treat or keep them home? Do you plan a small get-together with your closest friends or family to celebrate? Dress up and parade around the neighborhood? Whatever people decide to do, I hope they stay safe and healthy. If you are staying in, I highly recommend making some themed treats to enjoy. This year, I’m going to have a dessert buffet for us to enjoy. When I say “us”, I mean Andrew and me. It will be the 2 of us…enjoying plenty of sweets…while we binge watch Halloween movies 😊 Here’s what I’m going to make: Spooky Chocolate Dipped Strawberries Candy Corn Marshmallow Treats Spider Web Pretzels Frankenstein … Continue reading

St Paddy’s Provisions
St Patrick’s Day is a fun holiday for everyone! You can usually find some type of celebration around town whether it be a parade, green beer at your favorite bar or specials on Irish food at restaurants. Even if you aren’t Irish, it’s fun to participate in the festivities. We like to watch the parade and enjoy an adult beverage with the dressed-up crowds (the people watching is phenomenal), then head home for a feast! Some years we like to enjoy traditional Irish food but other years we like to take a favorite dish and add and Irish twist. It really depends on what we feel like cooking that day! This year, we are going to enjoy the following menu with friends and family: Reuben Dip Guinness Cheddar Mac & Cheese Guinness Glazed Chicken Sandwich Irish Mule Guinness Brownies The Reuben Dip is our appetizer and something to much … Continue reading

Mardi Gras!
Mardi Gras falls on Tuesday, February 25th this year. Traditionally, the days leading up to Lent, people would binge on rich/fatty foods in anticipation of fasting or limiting intake of certain foods. Mardi Gras translates to Fat Tuesday and is celebrate the day before Ash Wednesday, making it quite the celebration! New Orleans is famous for its Mardi Gras parties. I’ve been to New Orleans and enjoyed some awesome food but have never participated in the Mardi Gras festivities…maybe someday I’ll get back! I want to celebrate Mardi Gras this year with a delicious feast. I’m thinking traditional New Orleans foods with a little twist! I’ll be making Muffuletta Dip and Chicken and Sausage Gumbo. I got my inspiration for Muffuletta Dip from a traditional, and signature, New Orleans sandwich that features olive salad, salami, and cheese. This is essentially a Muffuletta sandwich in dip form. It’s bold, tangy, and … Continue reading

Air Fryer Chicken Wings and Homemade French Fries
We recently purchased an air fryer to see what the hype is all about – it’s pretty awesome! Our first meal consisted of Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings and Air Fryer Homemade French Fries. Both the chicken wings and french fries were crispy on the outside and tender on the side. Plus, they are so easy to make! You’d never guess you could have delicious chicken wings and french fries for a fraction of the oil traditionally used to cook these items. That’s because air fryers require less oil than when frying food, making it a great appliance to use to cut calories and fat. Generally speaking, air fryers product healthier alternatives to fried food. Give it a try! Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings have great flavor in each bite! The lemon flavor really stands out without being overpowering and the skin becomes crispy, creating a nice crunch. … Continue reading
