As you may know by now, I’m a HUGE fan of grilled cheese sandwiches. And panini’s. Honestly they’re one and the same to me. Anyway, nothing makes me happier than eating a melty, cheesy sandwich filled with yummy extras. This time, I went for pulled pork grilled cheese. I was craving a pulled pork grilled cheese, but I had no intention of making the pork myself. There’s great little ...
Bourbon Brioche French Toast
Contrary to my numerous boozy food posts, I don’t have it readily available at home. Every now and then, I’ll have a bottle of bourbon around for a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned cocktail, and when I do, I can’t resist a boozy recipe. Recently, I had a bottle in the house, and thought it was time for a little bourbon brioche french toast. I used my tried and true French toast recipe, and added a ...
Chicken Burrito Bowl
So I have a new obsession, and its name is Instapot. For its inaugural run, I made chicken burrito bowls. Twice. The first time was a learning curve, but I’m going to share photos of both dishes.

I thought about chop chop bread, but quickly thought of good old fashioned cinnamon rolls, and began to taste them as soon as the thought entered my mind. I was going to make ...

The calendar says fall, but the temperature here still says summer. And that came in handy because it allowed me to road trip to the beach for the first and only time this year. My bf and I decided to take a quick overnight trip to Rehoboth Beach, Maryland since I’ve never been. We hung out on the beach, walked along the boardwalk and ate lots of food (this lady can’t say no to a ...
Spinach and Feta Empanadas
I was cleaning out my freezer the other day, and came across empanada wrappers that I had bought with the intention of making spinach and feta empanadas. I was overly ambitious that day, and put them aside for another occasion. I totally forgot about them until now. So now I’m ready to make the spinach and feta empanadas, but I don’t have any spinach or feta. Once again, it’s Whole Foods to ...
