I have a Pinterest board called Storebought to Homemade with all kinds of DIY recipes for delicious items from the grocery store. Things like dulce de leche, wheat thins, graham crackers, extracts and homemade nut butters. Things that I have totally intended to start making from scratch but as you can see, I just haven’t gotten

Buttermilk Almond Chicken Fingers
Man do I love me some fried chicken. Like, it would be my last meal kind of love. But I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I eat it in a year. Especially now that we are eating clean for Lent. Why is it that you crave something so much when you just can’t have
Roasted Garlic and Bacon Guacamole
I absolutely love magazines but rarely buy them but when I saw this one last week I just couldn’t resist. Yikes…not good for the whole diet thing. Seriously, 108 bacon recipes! That’s just crazy talk. This guac recipe is not from the magazine but can you tell I had bacon on my mind? I whipped up a
Cauliflower Mac-n-Cheese

Double Crunch Biscoff Cookies with Chocolate Hearts
So the idea of these cookies came to me while reading Noah’s favorite Valentine’s book, Lilly’s Chocolate Heart. She has one last chocolate heart, wrapped in red foil, and is trying to find a place to save it. In the end, she does what any sane person would do and eats it. After reading books,
Strawberry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast
I have a confession to make…I don’t really like French toast. I choose pancakes over it every time, I just don’t get the appeal of soggy bread. Unfortunately, that guy I married loves it. But stuffed French toast is something I can handle and even enjoy sometimes. And this French toast, it may have converted me.
