This is one of my favorite pasta dishes and it reminds me so much of summer because of how light and refreshing it is! It’s thin spaghetti, or Spaghettini, in an olive oil sauce. What gives this recipe so much flavor is the roasted cherry tomatoes,garlic,fresh basil, and the toasty garlic breadcrumbs we’re going to add in! All in all pretty damn healthy for a … Continue reading Spaghettini with Roasted Tomatoes and Garlic
I fell in love with barbecue when my dad started smoking pork competitively. A few years back they started a Barbecuing team called “The Baster Boys” and traveled all around Wisconsin to different competitions. They stay up all night to smoke the pork, and then the judges would test their different pork and sauce combos the next morning. Pulled pork, brisket, ribs…. All sooooooo good! … Continue reading Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sliders
Although I will never claim to be an excellent baker, I have been getting the hang of it lately. I used to be terrible. Before Thanksgiving I attempted to make a flourless chocolate cake and that was a complete disaster. I picked the first recipe I saw on pinterest and it used a “water bath,” not that I even had a clue what that was. … Continue reading THE BEST Lemon Poppyseed Muffins

Sunday mornings are meant for being lazy and eating a lot of food, at least in our house. This is one of my favorite breakfast recipes. I use this for special occasions like birthday and christmas breakfasts/brunch. I just love how when you flip over the the bake onto your plate, the crispy bottom layer of the caramelized brown sugar looks. You don’t even need … Continue reading Creme Brûlée French Toast Bake
I love no-bake desserts because secretly even though I love cooking, I suck at baking. Maybe in time i’ll be more practiced, but having to use exact measurements for a recipe to turn out is not my favorite thing. These little Raspberry cheesecakes are so cute, easy, and surprisingly pretty healthy as far as desserts go! I found these cute little mason jars at target … Continue reading No Bake Raspberry Cheesecake
This week in Wisconsin we’ve had our temperatures back and forth between single digits with negative windchill, to high 30s and everything melting and then freezing over night.Add a 1 and a half year old French Bulldog who likes to pull me around on a leash, and I haven’t been able to go outside without slipping on ice patches or my face hurting from our … Continue reading Better Than Olive Garden Zuppa Toscana
In our house, we try to cook vegetarian at least twice a week. I picked up this habit when my husband (then boyfriend) and I first moved in to our own place. It is so much cheaper to eat vegetarian, which is awesome when you’re a broke twenty-something just out of college. Now, just because we’re cooking vegetarian here doesn’t mean we don’t love cheese. … Continue reading Baked Gnocchi with Cherry Tomatoes
I love slow cooker recipes. There’s something about letting the flavors of you dish meld together for a few hours. Not to mention how increddibly easy it is to be able to throw your ingredients in and walk away! Today, I needed to create something easy with minimal dishes because our water heater is (FINALLY) being replaced after 3 days with on and off hot … Continue reading Slow Cooker Apple Crisp
