Recipes with Cass Caps
As a recipe creator, I am always creating new recipes. Recipe creating and cooking can be time consuming. I am always looking for shortcuts when creating recipes. I recently worked with a new company, Cass Caps
“CassCaps™ allow you to measure spices straight from the bottle in 1/4 tsp increments! All you have to do is flip the bottle, twist, and done. Repeat twist as necessary to attain the desired measure. You can also just sprinkle to taste with the built-in sprinkle feature”!
Oxtails with Marukan Vinegar
A new collaboration means a new recipe. Marukan Vinegar is “rice vinegar that plays an important role by adding bright, tangy notes, adding flavor to any dish, enhancing flavors of other ingredients as well as balancing sweet, salty, fatty and acidic components of a recipe”. Oxtails is a dish we grew up eating. It’s still one of the most requested dishes in our house with my family. Oxtails can be fatty, so I decided to marinate the oxtails in the Marukan Vinegar that has no sodium or sugar. As well as marinate veggies to top the dish with.
Chicken bites
Combined two of my favorite breakfast meals chicken mini from Chick-fil-A and the honey butter chicken biscuits from Whataburger into this easy breakfast meal. Just in time for Back to school. I can’t believe that we are about 3 1/2 weeks away from school.
Here is an easy breakfast item that will definitely be in our rotation.
The Chimes Lafayette
Recently I took a day trip to Lafayette to celebrate my birthday with my grandma. We share a birthday and I couldn’t miss celebrating with her. She’s 93, WOW! What a blessing. We checked out a brand new restaurant called The Chimes. The Chimes is popping right now. A very popular restaurant serving many Louisiana classics like étouffée, fried seafood, burgers, Poboys and much more.
Girls Who Grill Event
One of my favorite things about being a Blogger/Content Creator is attending Media events. Now let me say not all Media events are created equally, but there are some that are amazing, over the top, informative and creative. I’ve been too quite a few amazing Media events both locally and via my travel collaborations.
Let me tell you this Girls Who Grill event that I attended a few weeks ago didn’t disappoint. This event was organized, well planned, fun, creative and was a whole vibe.
Air Fryer Chicken Teriyaki
Air Fryer Teriyaki Chicken with chicken fried rice. Topped with pineapple pico de gallo. I made it a little fancy and I used the pineapple as bowl. This meal was a hit with the family. So yummy.
Monte Cristo Sandwich
I am not much of a sandwich eater, but there is one sandwich that is my favorite and has been for a very long time, Monte Cristo. Bennigan’s Restaurant had the best Monte Cristo. This is the spot that I first enjoyed a Monte Cristo. Many Many years later this is still one of my favorite sandwiches. The Bennigan’s in Louisiana where I used to live closed before we relocated to Texas.
Last week I was craving a Monte Cristo. There isn’t a Bennigan’s here in Houston, so that meant I needed to create my own if I wanted to eat it.
Spicy Chicken Sliders
March Madness is here and it has been MADNESS! Omg! Nail biting games, major upsets and just good games. Whether you are watching NCAA Men or Women’s basketball March Madness has been entertaining for sure!!!
Our team, LSU Women’s basketball team is headed to the sweet 16. So we are stoked. But I have to be honest this is our team, but there are a few other teams we’re rooting for, I’m trying to keep my bracket alive!!
There are several big games today.
Here is another March Madness game day eat, my Spicy Chicjen Bacon Ranch sliders. A hit with my family.
I made my own spicy ranch with the NEW spicy ranch seasoning from hidden valley ranch. So so good!
Alfredo Chicken Wings
March Madness is officially here! 🏀🏀 Did you complete your bracket? I’m done with mine. But I think there will be a lot of upsets especially on the women’s side.
Our house is ready to watch and cheering on our team!
In time for March Madness I have a new wings recipe, my Alfredo Chicken wings! I wanted to keep things light with this one. Instead of chicken Alfredo pasta just my Alfredo wings.
Air Fried wings, topped with Alfredo sauce, Parmesan and mozzarella cheese and fresh parsley. Finger licking good. An easy no carb version.
Salt and Vinegar Shrimp
Salt and Vinegar Chips is one of my favorite chips. During my last trips to the grocery store, I picked up a bag. Well I had the bright idea to use the salt and vinegar chips like a panko to fry my shrimp. Yeah that’s what I said, Salt and Vinegar Shrimp.
It’s Fry-Day so we decided to Fry up some shrimp. These poboys were delicious. A twist on our classic shrimp poboys which is very popular back home at this time of year, because it’s Lent Season.
