Homestyle Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras is Tuesday, March 1st this year. I believe it always falls on the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, signifying the end of Carnival season and the start of Lenten season, but please correct me if you are more knowledgeable on these details than I am 😊 Tuesdays aren’t usually something people get excited over, unless it’s Taco Tuesday, but Mardi Gras gives you something to look forward to. Each city celebrates differently, and I admittedly don’t know of any raging parties happening in the Twin Cities (yet) but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate at home with a few close friends and family. We typically enjoy a themed meal or some apps and cocktails at home. This year, we’ll be starting with Sausage Bites with Spicy Cajun Dipping Sauce as an appetizer, then moving on to Cajun Turkey Burgers with Spicy Remoulade as our main course with King Cake Cream Cheese Bites … Continue reading

Kentucky Derby Delights
The Kentucky Derby is an annual horse race held in, you guessed it, Kentucky. Typically, the race is scheduled on the first Saturday in May but thanks to COVID and the current pandemic status, it was rescheduled for September 5, 2020. I’ve never been to the Derby and would love to go someday but until that happens, I’m content staying home and watching it on TV. Like most other holidays or celebrations, there will be themed food. Did you expect anything else? 🙂 Our appetizer will be Pimento Cheese Spread with sliced baguette. Pimento Cheese Spread is essentially the caviar of the South. It’s very cheesy and tangy, and there is nothing quite like it. It’s a great comfort food…and super easy to make! The recipe can be found here. Start by softening the cream cheese. You can do this by letting the cream cheese sit on the counter for … Continue reading

Turkey Burgers w/ Cranberry Aioli
Right around this time of year I get a craving for a turkey dinner…. a nice plate full of my favorite Thanksgiving foods. But, that’s just too much food on a hot summer day. I decided to create a recipe that not only reminds me of Thanksgiving but is light enough for summer. I give you the Turkey Burger with Cranberry Aioli. The turkey burger is full of flavorful herbs and when you combine it with the cranberry aioli you have the perfect burger. It’s a great blend of sweet and savory with a lean and juicy burger. Start by making the cranberry aioli. Combine the mayo, Dijon mustard and cranberry sauce until well mixed. It might be a little lumpy and that’s OK. If you don’t want any lumps use the back of a spook to mash the lumps or whisk the ingredients. Either set aside until the … Continue reading

(Chicken) Burger Bar
There is nothing like a juicy burger hot off the grill, chilled cocktail in hand, and warm weather to cure those winter blues. I want to share some of my favorite chicken/turkey burger recipes with you now that it’s starting to feel like summer! These are all a nice break from typical hamburgers and healthier for you (well, maybe not once you add all the toppings). I think they are very flavorful, simple to make, and delicious to eat. The first recipe I want to share is for Buffalo Chicken Burgers. These are ¼ pound burgers that taste just like buffalo wings but without the mess. Who wouldn’t want that? I like to top my burger with extra buffalo sauce and a little ranch dressing, then add a small amount of each onto my plate for extra dipping sauce. This burger would also pair well with blue cheese. The recipe … Continue reading

Memorial Day Traditions
Memorial Day is to honor the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. Military. Many people celebrate Memorial Day in many different ways. Parades and picnics, barbeques with friends and family, going to the lake, Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial beginning of summer. Nothing brings family and friends together like food so some delicious crowd food and a little menu planning is a must so you can advise your guests what they should bring. Our tradition is to go to the lake for the holiday weekend and preparing as much of the food ahead of time as possible will make packing much more simple than hauling spices and cupboard staples you may not have at the cabin. One of my favorite crowd-feeder recipes is a citrusy slow-roasted pork to make Cubano sandwiches. You can roast and shred the pork ahead of time and then heat the … Continue reading
