buffalo chicken dip

Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Dip

March 28, 2010 3 comments

Before making this dip on my own, I had eaten it several times at several different gatherings.  And every time, I just couldn’t get enough. This appetizer dip is basically a cheesy, shredded chicken mixture.  Some people cook and shred their own chicken but I’ve found this recipe to be the easiest. It calls for canned chicken which cooks apart into the shredded consistency you want. Just as a warning though, this dip is hot [...]

Chocolate Coconut Almond Biscotti

March 27, 2010 0 comments

For a while now, I’ve wanted to try making some biscotti.  But not just any biscotti, some chocolaty and rich biscotti. I found this biscotti recipe on Epicurious and decided to use it because it had the simplest ingredients and directions.  I substituted almonds for the walnuts though and added shredded coconut for added sweetness. But that’s not all!  When the biscotti cooled completely, I dipped the ends in melted white chocolate and more coconut! [...]

Turkey Taco Pasta Toss

March 26, 2010 1 comment

Last month in the Everyday with Rachel Ray magazine, this recipe caught my eye.  I would never have thought of mixing taco meat and their flavors with pasta.  So, I decided to give this recipe a try. Rachel Ray’s recipe calls for using ground beef but I substituted ground turkey instead.  My husband is not a big spicy eater either so I also left out the jalapeño. I must warn you that this recipe makes [...]

Basic Marinara Pasta Sauce

March 23, 2010 1 comment

This year we’re trying hard to get away from eating jarred and boxed foods.  Since they contain tons of sodium and preservatives, I’m committed to finding and making my own recipe versions. This past weekend, I made a fresh batch of a basic marinara sauce I found in a great cookbook I bought recently.  The recipe makes a generous amount so I was able to freeze a bunch for later use. Basic Marinara Pasta Sauce [...]

Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

March 22, 2010 0 comments

My husband loves chocolate.  I swear he is worse than most women when it comes to craving chocolate.  And chocolate chip cookies, watch out!  He’ll run someone over for a good, soft chocolate chip cookie. I came across this recipe on the recipe blog Real Mom Kitchen and knew I had to give it a try just for him.  These chocolate chip bars came out so great.  They are perfectly soft and extra chocolaty.  Needless [...]
