Spinach and Cheese Puff

Originally published on December 6, 2009 This is a recipe that I got from Martha Stewart’s website and it is fantastic! I actually used goat cheese in place of Gruyere cheese and I think it turned out even better. (I mean really, who doesn’t like goat’s cheese?) It was also super easy to make with all of the […]

Giada’s Stuffed Dates

Originally published on February 25, 2012 I made these for Thanksgiving this past year when most of my family came over to celebrate the holiday, and Maddie’s fourth birthday. Whenever I host the event, I always look for two things: a new app to bring to the table, and a different spin on sweet potatoes […]

Poker Party Potato Skins

Originally published on May 23, 2012 What can be better than a plate of golden crispy, perfect potato skins? According to my husband’s poker buddies, nothing. They’re the perfect indulgence and when you bake them, they’re just that much healthier for you (though don’t kid yourself, these really aren’t healthy for anybody.) Typically the skins are deep-fried […]

Cheese String Bites

Originally published on June 30, 2012 Would you believe that I had to make these three times before I could get a picture of them? (And even still, I’m sorry the quality of the pic isn’t so good.) The first time I made them, I had taken them from Pinterest where the author had said to only […]

Radish Chips

Originally published on January 25, 2014 Pita chips and potato chips are really delicious when you make them at home. But when you need a snack that’s even easier to make than those two, and won’t leave you feeling guilty for eating them all in one sitting, these radish chips are a real treat. I made them for […]

Chips and Dip

Originally published on January 26, 2014 While I gave you a very healthy snack recipe yesterday, today marks exactly one week until Super Bowl Sunday, and I have a feeling those radish chips just won’t satisfy a grease-craving crowd. If you’re still searching for awesome appetizers to serve during the game, these potato chips and dip are […]

Soft Pretzels

Originally published on January 27, 2014 I just love soft pretzels. I typically reserve them for hockey games, when you get them out of that warming stand piping hot, and dunk them in mustard until it’s falling down onto your fingers. But now that I no longer live just down the road from the arena, […]

Egg Rolls

Originally published on January 28, 2014 I’ve given you the recipes for chips and dip and soft pretzels to get you ready for the Super Bowl, and today I bring you crispy, greasy, delicious egg rolls. (Although they really don’t have to be greasy if you bake them like I did.) These are so good, I get requests for […]

Onion Rings

Originally published on February 28, 2014 Who doesn’t love onion rings? They’re so good, and this recipe reminds me of some of the best onion rings on the planet – those that come from A&W. Anyone else think the same? Whatever these rings remind you of, they are delicious and pretty easy to make. Ingredients: […]

Veggie Dip

Originally published on March 5, 2014 The thing that scared me the most about doing this reduced-carb thing for the month of March was the fact that I would have to say good-bye to snacking as a whole. But just like everything else, you can still snack – even as much as you want – […]
