Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip cookies are my down fall and these Brown Sugar ones are a must. If there is one close by you can count on me to try it. I am always on the search for the BEST Chocolate Chip cookie, and while I have some favorites (such as these) I am a BIG, BIG fan of this recipe. Can there be too much chocolate? In my opinion there can never be too much chocolate in a cookie. To make these cookies something super special I used 2 types of chocolate, dark and semi sweet chocolate. I love the bite of the dark chocolate and the smoothness of the semi…

Crispy Cheese Chips
To all my KETO/Low Carb friends do you ever find yourself craving something crispy like a chip? Well, I don’t know about y’all but I do. To help meet the craving I started searching for low carb chips and kept seeing these cheese chips and I had to give them a try. So Crispy Even though everyone online kept talking about crispy these “chips” were I just had to find out for myself. When I went to the store to get the cheese slices I found a party pack of pre-sliced cheese and I grabbed it right up. It had cheddar, havarti, colby and gouda. I was so excited to…

Reuben Grilled Cheese
Are you a fan of grilled cheese. I love them… they can be simple, with meat, with multiple types of cheese, thick bread, thin bread, fancy bread…I just love grilled cheese. Closed or Open? There is a great delicatessen here is Houston call Kenny & Ziggy’s. This is the first place I ever experienced The Rueban. I am almost embraced to admit this but it was only about 8 years ago that I fell in love with this amazing sandwich. It all started with a shopping trip to the Galleria with my brother for my sis-in-love. Afterwards we went to Kenny & Ziggy’s for lunch and he said we…

Instant Pot Corned Beef & Cabbage
St. Patricks Day is just a round the corner and according to my dad that means it is time for Corned Beef and Cabbage. Normally I will find a local place who is fixing it and get it for him, but this year I decided to get it a try in the Instant Pot. PS….I LOVED IT! Everything in one pot The beauty of the instant pot is that you literally can cook everything in one pot. That means one pot to clean up when everything is all said and done…I so LOVE that!! OK, well maybe one pot and a cutting board but still minimal cleaning up. Another great…

One last summer party
I started writing this post over a week ago. That is before Hurricane Harvey crashed into Texas and changed everything in our world. Thankfully my family is safe and dry but so many others around us are not. If you want to help support to disaster relief you can donate here or to the American Red Cross. Anything you can give will be used to help restore a family!! Not too long ago I was asked what my favorite dessert was and I really had to think about it. You see there is not just one that stands out above everything else, but there are a few that I crave.…
