Momofuku Grasshopper Pie

Momofuku Grasshopper Pie
Happy St. Patrick's Day! We celebrated the holiday a little early by going out Friday night then bringing this deliciously festive dessert to a fondue party on Saturday night. This is another creation from the Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook. And I'm not going to lie— after eating there in person, being able to frequent Momofuku in person is a real...

Homemade Taco Bowls with Avocado Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

Homemade Taco Bowls with Avocado Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
When I described this meal to a coworker, all I got was, "So, I can basically go to Chipotle and get that." Yeah, Mark, you can go to Chipotle and get this amazing homemade creation that fulfills every Mexican craving inside your soul, longing for that Tex-Mex flavor. Taco bowls fall into that category of 'never would have made before Erin.'...

Duck Breast with Pomegranate Sauce + Mashed Maple Acorn Squash

Duck Breast with Pomegranate Sauce + Mashed Maple Acorn Squash
This seemingly fancy, but super easy, recipe for duck breast with pomegranate sauce was a candidate for our Valentine's Day dinner this year, but lost out to browned butter lobster risotto (only due to the fact that lobster was on sale that week, not for lack of excitedness for this dish). As you can imagine it was on the menu for the first...

Cake Batter Cookies 'n' Cream Fudge

Cake Batter Cookies 'n' Cream Fudge
I've been wanting to make cake batter fudge, and I've been wanting to make cookies 'n' cream fudge. What would be the smart move here? Combining the two and making cake batter cookies 'n' cream fudge, of course! Inspired by Birthday Cake Oreos (I used them all up making this fudge, so I promise I'm done using them in recipes for awhile), these...

Fried {Birthday Cake} Oreos

Fried {Birthday Cake} Oreos
This is the first year that I can remember where I will not be attending the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo at least once. For anybody that doesn't know about Houston's big event, it's the largest rodeo in the world. It's a ton of fun from eating barbecue and every sort of fried junk food you can imagine, to a carnival, to actually watching a...

{Blue Cheese + Chive} Salmon Pinwheels

{Blue Cheese + Chive} Salmon Pinwheels
Back by popular demand, we now return to your regularly scheduled Wafoodie posts. Hopefully we'll be back to everyday posting again! We finally made a plan for food and actually went to the grocery store this weekend, so this week we are back to cooking after a week of eating out, travel recovery, and freaking out about where we will be living...

Fudgey Thin Mint Brownies

Fudgey Thin Mint Brownies
Traveling for nearly three straight weeks was disorienting, and I'm finally feeling up to cooking and baking again. We literally had next to zero food in the house and have been eating all of our dinners out. Of course, we always have pantry staples, and I came back with a couple of boxes of Girl Scout cookies after my visit to Indiana. I...

Strawberry & Blueberry Galette

Strawberry & Blueberry Galette
In between all of Erin's traveling, she managed to share her graces with me for a mere twelve hours between flights. She'd had a series of annoying and frustrating travels, so I wanted to give her one comfort of home. Since she got in real late, and was leaving before lunch, that meant I was cooking breakfast! Knowing Erin's love for sweets,...

Bachelor Food

Bachelor Food
As you can tell from all the recent blog posts, I've been cooking up a storm while Erin's been gone :) I'm a bachelor again, and I'll eat like a bachelor. That means beef. In this case: lots of beef, topping a warm and cheesy quesadilla. Unlike all of Erin's recipes, I don't feel compelled to spell this one out. It's as simple as it sounds....

Greek Frittata

Greek Frittata
For a couple that loves eggs as much as we do, it's hard to see how we haven't stumbled upon a frittata up to this point. Well we haven't, and that was a mistake. We finally took the plunge into making this wonderful egg dish! The first time we had Greek omelets was at Hobbit Cafe back in Houston. You might recognize that name because I think...
