Rosemary Garlic Chicken Burger
There’s something incredibly satisfying about biting into a juicy, flavorful burger, and when it’s made with a combination of fresh rosemary and garlic, it takes the experience to a whole new level. If you’re looking for a delicious twist on the classic burger, this Rosemary Garlic Chicken Burger is the perfect choice. Made with ground chicken, fresh rosemary, and minced garlic, this burger is packed with savory goodness and just the right amount of spice. The recipe can be found here. Start by making the sauce for topping. Combine the mayo, chopped rosemary, and garlic in a mixing bowl and set aside. Next, combine the ground chicken, salt, pepper, and 1/3 of the mayo mixture in a separate mixing bowl. Form this mixture into 4 patties and set aside. I like to place the patties on a plate or piece of wax paper until ready to cook. Heat a skillet … Continue reading

Grilled Peach Sandwich with Prosciutto and Arugula
As we get into spring and warmer weather, I like to make lighter dishes and meals that are seasonal and have fresh ingredients. I recently saw a picture of a sandwich on Instagram and immediately wanted to recreate it. It’s a little salty, a little sweet, creamy, and crisp all wrapped in a baguette. It’s a Grilled Peach Sandwich with Prosciutto and Arugula and it’s what dreams are made of. And it’s the right time of year because peaches are going to start being in season and available at your local Festival Foods. The recipe can be found here. Start by baking the baguette according to package instructions. I like to buy the take-and-bake breads from the bakery and use those. Set aside to let the bread cool then slice in half to create 2 sandwiches (or 3 or 4 depending on how long your baguette is). Then slice in half, … Continue reading

Beyond Meat Patty Melt
Every so often, we like to prepare meals with Beyond Meat. I know it’s not for everyone and some aren’t willing to try it but if you are curious, I highly recommend eating it at least once. Our latest creation is a Beyond Meat Patty Melt. It was amazing! Beyond Meat has a similar texture to ground meat but I think it’s a bit moister and juicier. I also think it has a slightly nutty flavor. In this case you will know you aren’t eating meat but if you are making other dishes, Tacos or Sloppy Joe’s for example, you won’t taste a difference after adding all the spices and sauces. The “patty” in this recipe is seasoned Beyond Meat. You will get the full texture and taste of the product. Personally, I think it’s great. Andrew even liked it! The recipe can be found here. Start by dividing the … Continue reading

Open Faced Sloppy Joes
I’ve recently been into open faced sandwiches. I like that you can use any kind of bread and jazz it up with toppings of your choice. I decided to make Sloppy Joes one night and made 2 different versions, one beef and one chicken. Andrew ate the beef version and thought it was incredible and I ate the chicken version and thought it was also incredible. The meat soaked up the sauce making it very flavorful and tender, the cheese on top was perfectly melted and help hold the sandwiches together, and the garlic Texas Toast made for a delightful, crusty base. It’s a hearty meal that will satisfy any craving. The recipes can be found here: Open Faced Sloppy Joe Open Faced Chicken Sloppy Joe Both recipes are identical, and you use either ground beef or ground chicken. You can also use ground turkey if you prefer. Let’s walk through how to make them. Preheat … Continue reading

Ghouls, Ghosts, & Goblins Alike!
Spooky Season is upon us and it’s something we look forward to at our house every year! We decorate for Halloween pretty early in September, start making themed food and beverages all throughout October, and enjoy watching all the Halloween / Horror movies we can find. This year I got a head start on some recipes and want to share them with you today. The recipes can be enjoyed as a standalone meal (if you consider dessert a meal), or you could combine them into one big meal. The hand pies can be an appetizer while you make and bake the pot pies to enjoy with a side of skull cornbread, finishing off with cookies for dessert. Try them all! SPOOKY CHEDDAR & JALAPENO SKULL CORNBREAD These are both fun and festive and make a great accompaniment to any soup, chili, or stew. The cornbread is perfectly crumbly, the jalapeno adds a bit of heat, and the cheddar … Continue reading

Chicken Pesto Ciabatta Melts
Chicken Pesto Ciabatta Melts are perfect for your next weeknight meal! Think of a classic bistro sandwich with warm, toasted bread, tender, juicy chicken, fresh, ripe tomatoes, melted cheese, and an herby pesto to top it off. That’s what this recipe is, a wonderful hot sandwich option that fills the void for dinner (or lunch). It’s filling without leaving you uncomfortably full. The fresh ingredients make it feel like a light sandwich. I personally think ciabatta is the perfect bread for a sandwich. It’s soft and airy inside with a crispy crust so you can’t go wrong! The recipe can be found here. Start by baking the ciabatta bread according to package instructions. Set the bread aside to cool. Then slice the tomato and set it aside until ready to assemble.

Slow Cooker Chicken Philly Cheesesteak
Slow Cooker Chicken Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are loaded with tender chicken, bell peppers, and onions, piled high on a hoagie roll and covered in melted cheese. It’s a tasty meal that’s easy to make! I think it’s perfect on a cold winter night or on a busy weekend because your slow cooker is doing most of the work. The recipe can be found here. Start by placing the chicken in a slow cooker. I recommend using boneless skinless chicken breasts but if you prefer to use chicken thighs, make sure to trim some of the fat off first. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Season to taste. I tend to add more garlic powder because we love the flavor. Pour the chicken broth over the top and cover. Cook on LOW for 4-5 hours. Add the bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Cover and cook on LOW for an additional 1 ½ – 2 hours or until the … Continue reading
