This might be too simple to be called a recipe, but it's pretty much the perfect dessert— sweet, brown buttered cookie dough sandwiched between two salty pretzels. covered in white chocolate and dipped in sprinkles. Sweet and salty are the perfect (and dangerous) combination. Just as it is hard to eat a single pretzel, it's hard to eat just a...

This dish smells heavenly cooking up on your stove. Between the fragrant coconut milk and the spices being poured in, your senses will be overloaded with delicious smells. First, chop an onion and sauté over medium heat until translucent. If you want a spicier curry this is where you could cook up some peppers— we just used chili powder. Add...

Homemade eggrolls are a fun, easy, and versatile dinner, party appetizer, or football food. If you can find eggroll wrappers. I looked at both Whole Foods and Safeway. Nothing. I finally decided we'd have to make a special trip to the Asian grocery store to look for them, until we started using Amazon Fresh's delivery service. Now, I have a...

Dustin's not a huge pot pie fan. I am. So guess what else we did with our leftover turkey? Made a big turkey pot pie! All kidding aside, I know this wasn't Dustin's favorite meal I've made for him, but I think he enjoyed it more than most pot pies. We used his mom's leftover pie dough to make the topping, so it was extra buttery, flaky, and...

Dustin knew we were making enchiladas with our leftover turkey. However, he didn't realize that we'd also be incorporating our leftover cranberry sauce into the enchiladas to make Turkey Cranchiladas (love the name). Never has Dustin been more unsure of a dish I wanted to make, but he stuck it out. Upon smelling the cranberry sauce, sour...

No football for us today as a result of our Thanksgiving victory! But for one of the earlier Texans game this season, we decided to try our hand at a bit of deep frying. We had our Italian friend over to watch, so we wanted to incorporate a bit of Italian cuisine in too. So, deep fried meatballs! There was a yummy looking recipe in Bon Appetit...

I bought a jelly roll pan to make my first roll cake this Thanksgiving, and in the end I was quite happy with my results. What really sold me on this recipe was the beautiful picture in The Pastry Queen cookbook. It is absolutely gorgeous. The cake I ended up with doesn't look nearly as impressive as the one in the cookbook. I guess that's...

Thanksgiving morning started out on a sweet note with pumpkin French Toast casserole and a Texans victory (even if just by the skins of their teeth). What a nerve-wracking week to be a Texans fan! For the Texans first ever Thanksgiving day game (morning game for us West Coasters), we decided to prepare this French Toast dish the night before...

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm sure we'll be posting lots of pictures of our Thanksgiving dinner recipes over the next few days, but today we share cake batter popcorn inspired by this recipe on Tasty Kitchen, made on a whim one Friday evening to accompany a movie watching. Melt approximately 1/4 cup white chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring...

One of our new discoveries in Seattle has been poutine, a delectable dish from our brethren just north in Canada. It's Canada's version of chili-cheese fries. Except that the chili is beef gravy, and the nacho or melted cheese becomes cheese curds. It really is just "fancy" cheese fries, but it makes you feel so much more sophisticated digging...
