Broiled Parmesan and Lemon Chicken {Foodie Friday}

I have been trying really hard to find dinners that are 1) quick, 2) easy 3)delicious and 4) new to our family. I don’t have a lot of time to get dinner ready after work, and I would like to not spend the entire evening in the kitchen when the weather is so delicious! I  think I had this on the table in about 20 minutes. I just served it with a side of canned green beans (fancy!), but I think it would also be excellent served on rice. Regardless, this recipe is definitely a keeper. *Note I used chicken tenderloins not chicken breasts, because that’s what I had. Just be sure to change your cooking time accordingly.

My obsession with butterscotch continues…

60 Second Chocolate Chip Cookie A la Mode {Foodie Friday}

I think I’ve died and gone to heaven. I’m pretty sure they will be serving these when we all get there anyway. I am starting to become a big fan of these single serve desserts. No leftovers is great for avoiding temptation. It started with the 60 second chocolate cake. But my opinion is that the cookie is wayyy better!!!! I made this in one of our small ice cream bowls and took it out of the microwave when it was starting to overflow the top. It was deliciously gooey. If you like it more done, use a bigger bowl and 10 additional seconds in the microwave. If you plan on eating it with ice cream (and you should!!) I would recommend using a regular sized bowl so there is enough room to put the ice cream on top. Mine did not have enough room for ice cream on top, but that’s ok because I didn’t have any vanilla ice cream (Shocking, I know.) Seriously this is to die for—and I just ate it plain.

Black Beans and Rice {Foodie Friday}

Beans, beans the miracle fruit, the more you eat

Pasta Carbonara {Foodie Friday}

I’m more of a fettuccine kind of girl. If we’re eating Italian, that’s what I am having. I am generally not very adventurous when it comes to food. I like to keep is simple and stay between the lines, if you know what I mean. I came across this recipe from the Pioneer Woman. Everyone always rants and raves about her recipes so I decided it was about time for me to give it a try. Let me say, they were right, this recipe was delicious! If you are looking for a new recipe to add to your dinner rotation, let me suggest this…

Perfect Pizza Sauce {Foodie Friday}

As I promised last week, here is the recipe for Perfect Pizza Sauce.

Perfect Pizza Crust {Foodie Friday}

DH has been very determined that homemade pizza just does not cut it. We tried making crust a couple times from a box and it never turned out well. So now we just buy frozen or order out. So when I told him I wanted to make a pizza from scratch he told me not to.

Dairy Delicious Dip {Foodie Friday}

Have you ever purchased the fruit dip from the grocery store? I always loved that stuff with apples, pineapple, and especially strawberries. Due to my frugal nature I started making this dip a couple of years ago. It’s much better and cheaper than the stuff from the store. I challenge you to make this and not an entire container of strawberries.
