Wow, I must really like enchiladas. While they normally can’t hold a candle to my favorite (tacos), they’re pretty much on the top of my list. Right now, the irony is that I’m SO sick of Mexican food. At my sister’s graduation party, we had literally 10 gallons of queso, and because we had 9 gallons of left overs, I’m pretty burnt out. I’ve been giving queso to everyone who will take it (and mini cupcakes, too) and am still basically drinking it to eat it all before it goes bad. My freezer will barely close from all the containers I have in there. Luckily, my coworkers will eat anything you put out, so I had a crock pot of queso going all day Monday and it was devoured before...
Has anyone tried the Waffle Tacos at Taco Bell? While I haven’t actually tried one, the idea is incredibly intriguing. I’ve heard mixed reviews of the fast food breakfast– mostly that the waffle leads something to be desired. So rather than trekking out to Taco Bell on a precious Saturday morning, I decided to make one at home. In my pajamas. As breakfasts were meant to be eaten. Is it weird that I felt because I’m filling the waffle with eggs that the waffle itself had to be egg-free? Moderation or something. I could’ve gone with a tofu scramble instead of eggs and made this vegan, but I normally sleep in late on weekends and am fighting the hangry monster who really can’t be reasoned with. Eggs are fast and...
“Oh Kelly, why didn’t you post Monday?” asked no one. Sorry, I was too busy watching the Game of Thrones season finale. After the previous episode, nothing (okay, almost nothing) about this episode surprised me. Should I read the books? Maybe. But considering the fact that I need a fricken diagram to keep all of the characters in the TV straight, I don’t think it’s ever going to happen. The entire first season, I kept confusing all of the men with beards (i.e., every single man on the show) for any other man with a beard. It didn’t go well, and thus my diagram. What does that have to do with waffles? Only everything (don’t listen to me, I’m clearly a liar). Normally, I’m a pancake girl through and through,...
By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by The Mushroom Council and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time. If you swung by for my thousand island dressing on Wednesday, you should know that I’m in love with Reubens. When I’m in a restaurant, I just get them without meat (or sometimes with coleslaw in place of it… apparently I secretly love cabbage?), but at home I like to find something else to put on it. I’ve tried a lot of things and am genuinely surprised I’ve never shared any before now. Because I eat so many, I have a few tricks (in the recipe) for making sure you don’t end up with the dreaded soggy sandwich from...
The more dressings I try to make myself, the more I realize that pretty much all dressings are some combination of mayo and ketchup. Or maybe those are just my favorite ones? Makes sense, because I LOVE ketchup. You know how some people only eat celery for the peanut butter? (I’m looking at you, Hannah) Well, I pretty much only eat French fries for the ketchup. Talking about my unpopular opinions, I also looooove sauerkraut. Throwing it in a crockpot with potatoes and carrots so they soak in the sour flavor is one of my favorite ways to make an easy dinner. So it should come as no surprise that I love Reuben sandwiches. I make them kind of all the time and they’re my go to option at a...
When I’m an at Indian restaurant, it seems like eeeeeveryone is ordering chicken tikka masala or grabbing it off of a buffet. I’ve had the sauce with veggies and with paneer, and I have to say it’s totally crave-worthy. So I made up a batch of the sauce, smothered broccoli with it, and shared it over at Everything Needs Salt. While you’re checking out my broccoli tikka masala, click around and see everything Abbie is making. Her delicious recipes will make you drool all over yourself and you won’t even mind. P.S., this dish goes great with a pile of rice and a big pile of saag with tofu paneer.
