Guys – I’ve got one last post for you before the Super Bowl, and it’s going to be a short one. Partly because I’m feeling lazy, and partly because I was in a rush with my picture-taking so most of them didn’t turn out that well. Oh well – you win some, you lose some. Anyway! Today’s recipe comes…read more »
Skinny French Onion Dip
Back in grad school, Dan and his friends decided to make homemade crab rangoons for dinner one night. For some reason they decided to put Dan in charge of groceries. (I say “for some reason” because at this point in his life, Dan’s culinary skill extended to boiling pasta and microwaving leftovers, and he really only went to grocery…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Buffalo Chicken Jalapeno Poppers
Short Snacktastic Sundays post today, folks! We were headed to Brad and Amy’s new place to watch the Patriot’s/Jets game at 1pm, and things were running a little behind schedule. Despite getting up at 8:30am today, I somehow didn’t make it into the kitchen until 11:30am (isn’t it crazy how time just disappears on the weekend?). I…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Crock Pot Spinach & Artichoke Dip
Spinach and artichoke dip is one of our favorite restaurant appetizers. Isn’t it everyone’s? It’s creamy, it’s savory, it’s delicious no matter what you eat it with…and, it has vegetables in it so you can inhale a whole bunch of dip without feeling too bad about yourself. Never mind that it’s also full of sour cream and…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Marinated Mozzarella Bites
Guys, I did an insane amount of cooking this weekend. With Thanksgiving almost literally upon us, I wanted to put together a Turkey Day recipe round up post. Suggested appetizers, entrees, side dishes, desserts, etc. – you know the drill. BUT, I discovered, to my surprise (and dismay), that I have almost no side dishes in my archives. Are…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Chinese Potstickers
Another short post today, guys! Dan absolutely cannot control himself around pork dumplings, and there wasn’t a Patriots game today to distract him from my kitchen/blogging activities, so I didn’t have a whole lot of time to snap pictures before he started getting impatient for his dumpling dinner. There’s nothing like a hungry, aggressively hovering husband to…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Three Cheese Crab Dip
Short post today, folks. Mostly because it’s ridiculously hard to make white dip/white bread look appetizing in photos, and I had a rough time getting the dip to look like something other than a pile of cheesy vomit. Sigh. Food photography – it makes me crazy sometimes, y’all. But guys, if you can get past the way it looks, this…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Hot & Sticky Crock Pot Chicken
Today’s post is brought to you by virtue of the fact that every other game day snack I tried to cook this afternoon either (1) didn’t happen or (2) got horribly botched. First, I tried to make Carla Hall’s Hot Fried Chicken. Things were going great, and my chicken was brining happily in the fridge,…read more »
Snacktastic Sundays: Classic Pigs-in-a-Blanket
Now that it’s fall and we’re well into football season, I’ve decided to start a new weekly blog series. I’ll call it Snacktastic Sundays (it’s a working title), and feature one new game day snack recipe per week. On Sundays, obviously, ‘cuz that’s when all the big football action goes down. I guess technically there are football games on Mondays…read more »
Pretzel Bites with Spicy Beer-Cheese Dip
Fall is almost here, and as I mentioned before I’m looking forward to a whole bunch of fall-related things. In no particular order, I am excited for: fluffy sweaters, apple picking, camp fires, crisp mornings/evenings, all things s’mores-related, root vegetables, apple pie, red/gold leaves, crunchy leaf piles, hot apple cider, Halloween, camping/hiking (we do this in…read more »
