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!

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.

Buffalo Chicken Salad

It’s Wellness Wednesday! My Buffalo Chicken Salad. This Salad is made with two of my favorite companies that I work with monthly, Just Meats and Farmhouse Delivery.

Buffalo Chicken salad on a bed of romaine lettuce and mixed greens, sliced buffalo chicken from Just Meats, tomatoes, bacon, shredded cheese, farm fresh eggs, elbow pasta tossed in ranch dressing and fire chili ranch dressing. This salad is one that my entire family loved. Including the picky eater. So good.

This meal was created in under 3o minutes. Busy nights don’t mean eating fast food. So moms who may have kids who are athletes and have late practices or games. This meal can be prepared in a short period of time. I toss in the pasta for carbs for my kids after games or practices.

Lasagna Soup

It’s been cold and rainy here in Houston. Saturdays are my day of rest. It’s my day that I intentionally take moments to be still and stop from all of the busyness. It’s something that I’ve done for years and really centers me as we enter a new week. It’s also my day to catch up on my TV shows and watch movies I haven’t watched yet. I hope that your Saturday is comforting, calm and rewarding. 

I love comfort food. This Lasagna soup was comforting, warm and cheesy. I made my first Lasagna soup over a year ago. This soup has since gone viral and there are so many recipes all over the internet.

White Beans Wednesday

Growing up in Louisiana my family would prepare White beans every Wednesday. This created the white beans Wednesday. My husband grew up the same way and he is always happy when I make this dish for him. I’m not raising my kids that way, but we do love White beans occasionally. One of meat that we love in our White beans is pork tails. I know everyone won’t appreciate this delicious delicacy. But don’t knock it till you try it. 😂😂😋😋

Jazz Kitchen Downtown Disney

As we were planning out our last trip, I was researching food spots and was shocked to see that there was a new Louisiana style restaurant that just opened in Downtown Disney. This restaurant Jazz Kitchen Coastal Grill and Patio. Offering a modern, upscale twist to Creole dishes. This restaurant is serving up Louisiana classics that are elevated! This restaurant stays true to what New Orleans cuisine is all about. Ralph Brennan is the driving force behind this amazing restaurant right in the heart of downtown Disney.

Ralph Brennan is known for many restaurants but most importantly Brennan’s in New Orleans. He has been a driving force in the culinary world for years and years. It’s no surprise that this restaurant is so well done. It’s like being whisk away to French quarter New Orleans as you walk into the courtyard of the restaurant. From the jazz music to the smiling faces welcoming you in, you feel like you’re in New Orleans.

Turkey Parmesan Sandwich

Chicken Parmesan is one of my favorite Italian dishes. This is my go to when we dine at Italian Restaurants. I picked up this new sauce by Mezzetta called Truffle, Porcini & Cream which was how this new recipe idea came about for dinner. This sauce is so delicious and was the perfect choice for my Turkey Parmesan Sandwich.

I replaced the chicken with Turkey breast instead of the chicken breast. A great choice. So delicious.

In addition to this new sauce, Smoked mozzarella was superb on this sandwich.
