HUMP DAYYYY!!!!

Y’all...I’m sorry. My post went to drafts instead of public yesterday!
Hey y’all.
I’ve been missing for minute...oh no!!
So, since I missed a day AND since all we had for dinner last night was yummy burgers and Alexia waffle fries...I’m posting about our Monday night dinner. There’s a pic on my Instagram already...so check that out!
Alright, I found an awesome BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabob recipe via Damn Delicious (obviously lol) and I tweaked it a bit. I don’t have skewers or a grill (ugh coming soon!) so I made a sheet pan dinner out of it!
I failed to read the whole recipe before I started, so I didn’t get to marinate my chicken for 2-8 hours as suggested. That’s alright, because I ended up just pouring the whole bowl of marinade onto the sheet pan and letting everything soak that goodness up. Ha!! I also failed to purchase another chunk of fresh ginger so I just sprinkled some dried ginger powder in the mix...still good, just not AS good. If going the sheet pan way, I’d suggest purchasing a very large red bell pepper OR get 2 medium-ish sized ones. I love bell peppers, and one just wasn’t enough...especially the one they (Whole Foods Shopper) picked for me. It was small.😢Moving on...I put some rice in a sauce pan and cooked it while my sheet pan was in the oven. I put the oven on 400° and cooked about 20-25mins...perfect amount of time for the rice to finish up. I would recommend serving the meat and stuff on top of the bed of rice. Blake and Grayson don’t like their food mixed/touching, so I didn’t do it that way for us. End of the day, it was absolutely delicious!! I’ll definitely be doing this one again on actual kabobs on the grill....when we get one!!!
Have a great day, y’all!!

Eggplant Parm!

Hey guys! I’ll be making 2 posts today...so stay tuned! So, for my first post I’m sharing our Eggplant Parm we had last night. It was so so good!! I followed a recipe by Emmy’s Blog. For 3 eggplants, there wasn’t enough breadcrumb mixture or egg mixture. So if you want to make a big one, then you’ll just need to whisk some more eggs and put some more breadcrumbs into your bowl. I ended up just using like less than 2 eggplants. The rest are sliced in my fridge...I’ll have to figure out what to do with them later. Anyway, great recipe. It was absolutely delicious!!! I ate 4 slices...Blake are 6 and Grayson ate 5!!! So it was definitely a hit!!! All of my ingredients came from Whole Foods via Prime Now...great prices, great quality...never any complaints from me!! Enjoy! And comment below if you make this and you think it’s as good as we did!

Stove Top Pot Roast

Hello again, people! As a lot of you know, I like cooking. I love to find recipes and use them as my template! I rarely ever follow a recipe exactly as it’s written. So, the other day I made a stove-top pot-roast! I used a mixture of Ree Drummond/ Pioneer Woman and Chungah Rhee/ Damn Delicious . They’re literally 2 of my favorite cooks. So, if we are being 100% honest, almost everything I cook is inspired by their recipes! Anyway...I started by slicing the onions and the potatoes in half and chopping the carrots and celery into edible chunks. Threw a little olive oil into my pot and heated that up...then I seared my onions (flat side down). Once they were nice and browned, I removed them onto a plate and threw my carrots into the pan for a few minutes. Once those were seared a little, I placed them onto the onion plate. Now, you’re ready to sear that roast!! Add a tad more olive oil to the pot and then throw that bad boy in there. You’re going to want to try and move it around.....

Happy Sunday!!

Happy Sunday! Hope you all are having a fabulous Memorial Day weekend!! Last night I did something new to me. I made homemade Salisbury Steak! I was a bit nervous, but it was so so easy!! So, for this meal, I followed April’s recipe from Whisk It Real Gud ! I only did a couple things different with this one. I used 2 small yellow onions for my diced onion...and I used one medium/large red onion for my slices. And I sautéed the diced onions first...sat them aside and then sautéed my red onion rings. Then to my red onions, I added sliced Baby Bella mushrooms. When it came to the bread crumbs, I just bought a container of plain bread crumbs from Whole Foods. Worked great!! And I don’t own celery salt, so I left that out. I also used a box of beef stock instead of the bouillon.. Other than that, I pretty much followed the rest of the recipe! We had mashed potatoes on the side. It was DELICIOUS! I post all my meals on my Instagram ...so check that out and follow me as well, if you’d ...
