We all know what’s this Sunday. Yep, it’s here. The Superbowl. I’m not a football person, but my fiance absolutely loves it. I pretty much watch it in the background, but other than the commercials and food it’s not really my deal. However, with that being said it’s always fun to spend time with friends and family and that’s kind of what it’s all about anyhow!…
Okay, so I already told you that I love chips. Specifically – tortilla chips. You also probably read about the delicious microwaveable Queso. But what about salsa? I’ll admit it I’m pretty partial to what I’ll eat. Pace is okay, it’s just essentially tomato paste. Sadies (which is made in New Mexico), specifically the hot kind of traditional – that’s where its at. But when you…
I had wonderful birthdays growing up, and that always meant that mom would bake me a cake – whatever flavor I wanted. I went through phases of chocolate and spice cake but to this day, my favorite is by far Funfetti. I mean I was seriously considering a Funfetti wedding cake. I just love how all of the colors are so exciting! It’s like a surprise…
Like I mentioned earlier, I absolutely love Italian food and a favorite of mine has always been Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo but today I wanted to share my obsession with Eggplant with you! I first discovered my love for eggplant when I had a cream sauce based vegetarian eggplant lasagna in middle school during Art Club. Now, I’m a meat eater and anyone who knows me knows that. So…
I’ve kind of had a love affair with chicken alfredo since my second trip to Olive Garden. My first trip there I got something with meatballs and it made me sick, which was totally my ridiculous stomach’s fault. But my second trip – that’s pretty much dictated every experience I’ve had there since. Other than sauce getting skimped on occasionally, the fact that they grate as…
So a few days ago I shared a recipe for these easy and delicious Two-Step Restaurant Style Tortilla Chips, but what are chips without something to dip them in? That’s right – not near as good as they could be. One of my fiance’s favorite thing to eat them with is queso, and who can blame him, right? Queso is good year round but in my…
I’ve had whipped cream other places, but lets be honest, I really don’t think I’ve ever had anything to top this. In all of my (almost) 22 years. This includes every restaurant I’ve ever been too or function that I’ve ever attended, nothing comes close. In fact even though I wasn’t able to make it back when I was invited once I started college the students…
I don’t think it’s a secret that good Mexican food is my THANG, but on top of enchiladas, tacos and green chile stew I really enjoy chips. Seriously, in the Southwest if you don’t fill your entire stomach up with their crunch goodness and the salsa on the table far before your food gets here you might not be a real New Mexican. There are a…
I talked about how much I adored lazy Sunday mornings in an earlier post, and essentially if we weren’t having biscuits, we were probably having pancakes. I don’t have an incredibly fantastic pancake recipe, but mine were probably a little different than what you grew up eating. That’s because even though we did have regular bottled syrup to choose from, mom would make this special Microwaveable…
I have lots of fond memories of being small, and most of them revolved around reading books and didn’t really realize I was such an avid reader until I started packing up my old room at my parent’s house. I found myself becoming incredibly excited with each title, from Stephanie’s Ponytail, to The Suns Asleep Behind the Hill I remembered reading them with together. One of my…
Hi, it's nice to meet you! My name's Lauren. Lover of bad 90's movies, green chile and proud Furbaby Momma.
