Loaded Triple Chocolate Banana Muffins

I know these Loaded Triple Chocolate Muffins have quite the name and I really should have simplified with the title “best muffins ever.” They really are that good. They were still light and moist, unlike many muffins I have made with whole wheat flour. And they are actually an updated version of the muffins I shared here (before

Nutter Butter Candy Corn Bars

I’ve been so obsessed with sharing football food that I totally overlooked Halloween eats. We have been super busy around here and my mind has been elsewhere. I even missed out on starting a 12 weeks of Christmas treats series. Super disappointing since it was so fun last year. But no worries, I will be bringing

Crispy Baked Asian Wings

When I served these Crispy Baked Asian Wings for dinner recently, Joel asked me if I fried them….that’s how crispy they are after being baked in the oven! The recipe for these wings is from Alton Brown’s show Good Eats. I am not really into science so I don’t watch it too often but I happened to

It’s really one of those things you indulge in rarely, but when you do

Pumpkin Pie Cashews

I’m pretty sure these Pumpkin Pie Cashews are the best mixed nuts I have ever made (although Burnt Sugar Almonds are pretty darn good). They are sweet and crunchy and full of all the fall flavors. Pumpkin pie is one of my favorite desserts so I was immediately drawn to this recipe. It originally called for a mixture of

Oven Tacos

I have never really been a big fan of ground beef tacos. I rarely had them as a kid because my mom makes a mean shredded beef that is incredibly easy so that was almost always what filled our taco shells. I surprisingly haven’t shared that recipe, I need to get on that. Although I’m

You know how Noah is a chocoholic? Well, turns out he is a peanut butter’oholic too. Whenever he sees that yummy peanut butter jar in the pantry he gets all hyped up and starts, first calmly, saying “butter” then he gets more and more frantic until he gets a taste of the good stuff. He
