Game Day Guacamole
It’s Super Bowl Sunday! Guacamole is a nutritious but satisfying treat on Game Day. You can whip it up in no time at all! Fans of cilantro will love to add it into this recipe. Unfortunately, my husband and I do not agree on my love of cilantro. So for Game Day, I left it […]
Bacon
I hate frying bacon. The grease splatters everywhere. I love my bacon super crispy but not burnt. I played around and found the perfect way to cook bacon to obtain optimal crispiness using parchment paper, cookie cooling racks, and a baking sheet. This recipe is perfect if you need to use the bacon grease for […]

Better than Red Lobster Garlic Herb Biscuits
My eight year-old was manipulated by Daisy Cottage Cheese commercials. I did warn her she wouldn’t like cottage cheese, but she insisted. I figured I could spend the $3 on cottage cheese because if she did like it, it is a healthy protein-based food. Alas. She did not like it. So I started looking for […]
