sausage biscuit skillet with guinness

on 0 155 Views

This year I was on a mission to find a new St.Patrick’s day recipe…and what came out of my endeavor was this delicious boozy shepherd’s pie type of dish but instead of mashed potatoes on top, I used fluffy homemade buttermilk biscuits! Get your fork ready and don’t miss out on making this skillet for Paddy’s day…break out that stout!

I stumbled upon the Jelly Toast Blog and was inspired to remake their Sausage Biscuit Skillet with Guinness version but with my own spin. Her photography of the dish was so well done and it had my mouth watering so I just couldn’t resist making a version of it myself! A few tweaks here and there and it came out amazing!

I love that it’s a one-pot dish!

Heat things up this Valentine’s Day since it’s bitter cold outside with this spicy corn soup!

Don’t like it hot? No problem, just remove the seeds and membranes from the serrano pepper or omit it all together…but if you really like it hot just add another pepper.

I absolutely love finding new and exciting soup recipes (or old recipes) and revamping them and experimenting with the ingredients…I’m always on the lookout for unique soups to try out. I’ve adapted this recipe from an old Homestyle Chicken cookbook I have to my tastes and I love it…a unique soup to add to my collection to make again and again!!

Breakaway from the traditional chicken noodle soup and try my newest recipe that is full of fresh veggies and tender chicken, and bonus…it’s dairy-free!

It’s officially freezing outside…to the point that my pups need little booties to go out to do their business. The cold seems to seep into your bones and you just can’t get warm enough. The only way to remedy that is to make a steamy homemade soup. I’m talking of making the stock and all from scratch!

Not only will you get more depth of flavor by making your own stock but you will warm up the kitchen. Each spoonful you eat will slowly unthaw you from the inside out…so try this new chicken and veggie soup and keep out the cold.

pistOu perlini pasta with chicken sausage

on 0 107 Views

Ready to swap out that jar of spaghetti sauce and change up your noodle game?
What’s more fun to add to pasta than tiny balls of mozzarella?? Pair those little babies with some balsamic sun-dried tomatoes and it’s perfection!

This is my take on Maggiano’s dish Pesto Perlini Hand-Cut Fettuccine Recipe…I changed up the pesto for its sister pistou and used chicken sausage.
I’ve recently become obsessed with pistou which is basically a simplified version of pesto…and it is delicious!

With the mountain of issues that are causing stress right now, it’s very important to take care of ourselves and do something that makes us happy.

Challenge yourself this week to take a moment each day and savor something…pause and think about the experience and how much you enjoy it.
