Cheese and pears on a crispy slice of whole grain bread drizzled with honey and topped with walnuts. A low fat, high protein snack that satisfies!

Buffalo Cheddar Chicken Fingers
Crispy buffalo chicken fingers dipped in a sweet and mild sauce, topped with cheddar cheese, then finished with a ranch drizzle
Frittata Lyonnaise
A classic meal, Frittata Lyonnaise is packed full of onion, potato, sausage (or bacon), and gruyere cheese. It’s an amazing one pan breakfast that’s only 30 minutes from start to finish!
4 Layer Breakfast Skillet
An entire breakfast buffet stacked up in just one skillet. A hash-brown base is loaded with scrambled eggs, ham, and cheese. The best part though: you can customize it any way you like, with anything you like. I’m going to be mixing up my next one by adding some onions, peppers, and mushrooms!
Havarti, Pesto & Pear Grilled Cheese Sandwich
I feel like my fingers need a stretch. There is absolutely no holiday I love more than Christmas, and to do it justice, I completely break off from the blog for a couple of weeks. We go big on the 25th, but Bo’s background is part Serbian, so we always make sure to acknowledge that…
Crack-tatoes aka roasted potatoes with bacon and cheese
I don’t want to alarm you, but I’m about to introduce you to something you’ve been missing in your life. Nothing beats a good roasted potato. Thing is – I sucked at making roasted potatoes. One time they’d be awesome, and the next time soggy. One day seasoned perfectly, and the next time, though I…
No Bake Berry Cheesecake
Alright, I’ve got a ridiculously easy dessert here that tastes like summer. That’s all I could think digging into it last night, looking out the back window at all the snow. This is one of the most refreshing desserts I’ve every had, and it’s exactly the pick-me-up this house needed after a lazy weekend spent…
Pork Florentine Casserole
Alright, all cards on the table: I hate spinach. I have never found a way to eat it where I didn’t think it tasted like old socks. Being the great wife that I am though, when I saw the picture of golden brown, Parmesan crusted pork chops nestled in a bed of creamed spinach, I…
Cheese Triangles
This is hands down my favorite appetizer. My Mom used to make it all the time for holidays, and I asked her to for me for Christmas, but I just didn’t quite get my fill, so I whipped some up for New Years too. You may have already heard of them before, but probably as…
Stuffed Shells
I’ve been making these for a long time, but have finally tweaked them to the point that Bo both and I love them. Please understand that this is quite the feat, especially in a cheesy dish. A second great thing about this, the recipe is big enough to make 8 servings, which means that I…
Quick No Rise Pizza Crust
Oh, hello blog. Um, it’s not you, it’s me… Seriously. So, I’ve been completely absent for the last three weeks. Lets just chalk it up to holiday madness and my desire to get onto a ridiculously regimented schedule as a new year resolution. It only took me three days (and the 5 am rising of…
Roasted Butternut Squash Ravioli
I decided that I had to make this at home because I never get to order it out any more. When I was working, my boss used to take us out to Milestones for work lunches once in a while, and I would always order the butternut squash ravioli. The problem with not working is…
Chili Mac and Cheese
So, this is another recipe created by those people who I worship over at America’s Test Kitchen (from their skillet suppers magazine). It cooked up so nice and quick, had the perfect amount of spice, wasn’t over powering at all for Bo who isn’t a big chili fan, and best of all, Oliver liked it…
Open Faced Grown-Up Grilled Cheese
Now, I’m known for many, many bad habits. One of the worst (at least according to my mother), is that I don’t eat leftovers. I’ve passed this on to Bo to, and I admit, it’s horrible. It’s also got to change. Food is bloody expensive, and I’m in the (also horrible) habit of cooking far…
Scalloped Potatoes
This is a recipe for my cousin Jenny 😛 You see, we have the same splurge of a pot, and I promised her that I’d load her up on recipes for it, which I hadn’t done. Until now. Consider this the start, though I also make chicken with 40 cloves in it. Looking at those…
Manicotti with Meat Sauce
So, while the fresh egg pasta of my last post is great and all, I’m guessing it’s a lot more useful with the recipe for the actual meal. So, here goes, manicotti with meat sauce. You don’t have to use home made pasta though (obviously). Just, please don’t use those hard manicotti tubes. The ones…
