Green onion dip recipe

June 13, 2020 by Brittany Belling Leave a Comment

Green onion dip recipe We love green onions, so naturally we planted a ton of them in our garden. Well, we're not eating them as fast as we thought we would, and we keep forgetting about them. We'll be sitting down half way done with dinner, looking out at our garden and that's when we think "oh yeah, green onions would have been great on this." Moral of the story, I'm ...

My family has this epic recipe for making a bag of boring pretzels, taste out-of-this-world-amazing. I swapped out one ingredient to make them even better, now we have ourselves Sriracha Barbecue party pretzels, and they’re a game changer. These will take you through a journey in time and space.

Easy corndog muffin recipe using Trader Joe’s cornbread mix

July 30, 2019 by Brittany Belling Leave a Comment

I'm always looking for family friendly recipes, my daughter isn't even a picky eater, but I like to make meals a little more fun. Sometimes I think I appreciate kid food just as much as she does and chicken tenders end up on the meal plan often. So I made some fun corndog muffins with a box of Trader Joe's cornbread mix. It was so easy, all I did was add a little garlic ...

Perfect Oven Potatoes

June 25, 2019 by Brittany 10 Comments

I am obsessed with potatoes. I love the idea of oven fries or oven potatoes, but they never seem to work for us, we have to bake them for well over an hour and they're never cooked evenly. It drove me nuts, oven potatoes shouldn't be rocket science! Through years of trial and error I finally figured out the best way to make oven potatoes (rather quickly too!) I make a couple ...

Garlic Parmesan Zucchini Fries

May 31, 2019 by Brittany Belling Leave a Comment

AJ finally upgraded his grill this spring, and we've been grilling about twice a week since. As wonderful as it is to grill all weekend every weekend we're quickly running out of ideas for sides and have to get a little more creative. These garlic parmesan zucchini fries are probably one of the best things I've ever had as a side even though I'm not a fan of zucchini. One of ...

Four Ingredient Slow Cooker Chicken Wings

May 25, 2019 by Brittany Belling Leave a Comment

I love hosting people for game days, is there anything more fun than gathering together and eating tons of finger foods? Even when it's just the 3 of us at home we like to create quite the spread; chips and taco dip, something from the grill, cheese, crackers and sausage. We go all out. Sometimes it's nice to give the grill a break and cook something simple inside. That's ...

Best Ever Breakfast Potatoes Recipe

May 25, 2019 by Brittany Belling 6 Comments

If it were up to me I would have potatoes with every single meal. I love potatoes, a lot. I tried out this recipe one afternoon when it was just Aliceana and I. I had skipped lunch and I couldn't wait a few hours for dinner, so I thought why not make some potatoes? Yep, I can make a meal out of potatoes. As soon as I tasted these I immediately texted AJ to let him know I made ...

Hasselback Tailgate Potatoes

March 8, 2019 by AJ 7 Comments

Easy tailgate potatoes

So this recipe was supposed to be about how to make some delicious ribs on the grill for game day. Then I made these hasselback tailgate potatoes and they stole the show! They are a great way to combine your favorite types of potato. They are basically a baked potato that has been pre sliced to simplify the “loading” process of loaded baked potatoes. Thinly sliced about half ...

Cheese stuffed brats in a blanket

September 16, 2015 by Brittany Belling Leave a Comment

Game nights are the best kind of nights, whether that means you’re sitting around a table playing a board game or sitting on the couch (and jumping up every two seconds when something good or bad happens) while watching a football game. This past weekend, we did a little bit of both. Saturday was all about playing board games, while Sunday was all about football. Our team won ...
