Stuffed Biscuits

AGAIN!!! I have no pictures, I promise I am hanging my head in shame right now. Nothing went wrong with this one, unless you count the fact that we didn’t like ham and Swiss cheese combo. I just totally spaced on getting a picture. I promise from now on the camera will stay in the kitchen with me.

Bacon and Egg Sadnwiches

Stating the obvious: There isn’t a picture added to this post. Long story short, I really over cooked the bacon. I did not want to photograph the sandwich at all. Honestly I was so upset by it I wanted to cook more, but James wasn’t having it. Something about burnt bacon is still bacon and all that. Anyways, very “crispy” bacon slices later I did have a mostly delicious sandwich. I will be making this again in the near future and adding a picture for everyone. Until then here is the recipe.

Shrimp Boil

Delicious, delicious, delicious. A summer must!!!

Chorizo and Egg Burritos

 

I made this yesterday for breakfast because it was so easy and incredibly fast to put together, which is perfect when you are on a schedule. I would highly recommend serving with a green apple or any other tart fruit. The combination of acidic fruit and  savory chorizo is delicious. Easily a favorite in our house.

Jambalaya

I decided to make this because I am obsessed with Jambalaya that comes in the box and you add the sausage. Y’all know what I’m talking about. Anyways my love of that is why I made this. Heads up this can be a real sinus cleaner so if you’re a little stuffy whip this up and you’ll be right as rain.

Chicken Pot Pie

This pie crust is from scratch. I had never made pie crust before Sunday morning. It was tedious and exhausting and by the end I wanted to cry and give up. I pressed through it all and refused to give in to buying pre-made crust and let me tell you something… It was SO worth it. It was the most delicious crust I have ever tasted. The temporary loss of my sanity was well worth it.

Lime and Cilantro Chicken

This is One of James’s favorites that I make. It is really delicious and it’s great because it’s so easy to adjust how spicy or how sweet you want it to by adjusting the hot sauce to honey ratio and the type of peppers you use. I make ours with enough spice to tingle your tongue.

Shrimp Scampi

 

Before I left for Germany, I watched The Chew on ABC, religiously. I would DVR it for watching convince. One day they were making a scampi dish and this is when I learned Shrimp Scampi has been a LIE. Red Lobster I am calling you out!!! Ready to have your mind blown? Take a guess as to what scampi means. Go on… Ok here it goes… The definition of scampi is the term given to shrimp when it is cooked!!! I’ll say it again: Scampi = COOKED SHRIMP!!! Yes it also adds cooked in butter and garlic and often times white wine but COME ON. Ok my rant is over. I hope I have enlightened at least one person today.
