04/02/12Philly Cheese SteakOne of my dreams in life is to make it to Philadelphia. I want to eat a real Philly Cheese Steak and see where Corey Matthews of Boy Meets World grew up. Until then, I will continue to dream and make my own Philly Cheese Steak. This past weekend I wanted to try something that was a little different than the traditional cheese steak. Instead of using sliced cheese, I found a recipe with a provolone cheese sauce. It is a bit more complicated than making a regular Philly Cheese Steak and takes a bit more time, but is well worth the extra effort. The cheese sauce is creamy and delicious.

You're going to want something else when you are craving peanut butter and jelly. Jalapeno-Cheddar Sandwich Bread 3¾ cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for... Posted at 12:28 PM Comments |

03/06/12Baked Zucchini Sticks with Sweet Onion DipA couple of weeks ago when I made Shredded Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches I searched for the perfect side dish to accompany them. I wanted something different from the standard fare of French fries and roasted vegetables. When I found this recipe for Baked Zucchini Sticks with Sweet Onion Dip I knew it was the one. Combining some of the basic flavors that were in the Blue Cheese Celery Slaw I knew it would pair perfectly. These are great with the dip or solo. They were a huge hit—and I would recommend making them as soon as possible! One of my roommates said he would eat these every day, and I absolutely believe he would (they really are that good). Make sure you have some time set aside when you decide to make these. Coating every zucchini stick separately is time... Posted at 12:00 PM Comments |
