BLT Bagel Sandwich

It’s National BLT month people! Do you guys love or hate all these food holidays? I kind of love them since it gives me more reasons to make chocolate cake, doughnuts, grilled cheese and more. As if I need more excuses, right? Hopefully they don’t drive you guys crazy because they are here to stay

Everything Bagels

I made bagels. BAGELS! I know, right? And everything bagels at that (everybody knows they are the best kind). They seem so mythical and difficult and well, just not something you do at home. But let me tell you, it’s all a lie.  Bakeries want you to think that so you go and buy them. Forget that.

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.

Apple Zucchini Bread

The zucchini in my garden has been growing like crazy. It especially gets out of control when you are out of town for a few days and don’t have someone to check on it. Ooops.  This is what happens. The zucchini in the middle is the biggest one I’ve ever seen and it was kind of

Pizza Hut Breadsticks

Hands down, Joel’s absolute favorite chain pizza is Pizza Hut. He loves all the cheese, meat and grease that comes along with it and I will admit, it’s good but it’s definitely not the kind of pizza you want all the time. I do love their breadsticks though. I have always kind of wondered who it
