"Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough" Sandwich

"Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough" Sandwich
Not only does Peanut Butter and Co. make some delicious, unique peanut butter flavors, they also have a sandwich shop in New York City where they will make you fancy peanut butter sandwiches. One on their menu is called "Cookie Dough Surprise," which sounds right up my alley. It's a combination of peanut butter, vanilla cream cheese and...

Homemade Bagels

Homemade Bagels
Yes, you read that correctly. Homemade bagels. Done right— boiled then baked— as any self respecting bagel should be made. A few months ago, I never would have even thought about attempting to make bagels in my own kitchen. There are certain foods that just seem complicated, requiring special skills, and needing special equipment or...

Berry Cheesecake Oatmeal

Berry Cheesecake Oatmeal
As I've previously mentioned, I think cheesecake makes for a very delicious breakfast! I really like that this oatmeal allows me to do so with slightly less guilt than the previous time I ate cheesecake. This is my favorite oatmeal I've made so far. I remember reading about a blueberry cheesecake oatmeal recipe in the Rocco DiSpirito Now Eat...

BBQ Chickpea Burgers

BBQ Chickpea Burgers
Dustin and I loved to hit up the slider joint, Little Bigs, while we were back at Rice. We'd walk to the location (while it was open) by the zoo in Hermann Park, and I'd order a couple of black bean sliders with harissa cream while Dustin stuck with the traditional burgers. I used to not usually be the one to pick a veggie burger over freshly...

Joël Robuchon Las Vegas

Joël Robuchon Las Vegas
There aren't really words to describe eating at Joël Robuchon's Las Vegas restaurant. Describing this food as delicious is a gross understatement. All I can say is that eating here is an experience, and once you've done it you'll understand. The Chef of the Century's restaurant is the only 3 star Michelin guide restaurant in Las Vegas and is one...

Chicken Pizzaioli Sandwich + Microwave Potato Chips

Chicken Pizzaioli Sandwich + Microwave Potato Chips
Lately I've been seeing advertisements for Subway's Chicken Pizzaioli Sandwich, one of their March featured sandwiches. Basically, it's a sandwich with slices of chicken breast, pepperoni, marinara sauce, and cheese. The flavor combinations sounded really good to me, but I thought Dustin and I could make this sandwich a lot better than Subway...

Creamy Lemon Cappellini

Creamy Lemon Cappellini
This pasta is so light and fresh tasting. I found this recipe on foodgawker from Ezra Poundcake for a Lemon Linguine but used cappellini pasta instead since that is what we had on hand. It would be the perfect lunch to enjoy on a summer afternoon, but since we won't have that kind of weather here for awhile, it made for a nice pre-Spring burst...

Stopsky's Delicatessen

Stopsky's Delicatessen
Seattle Met magazine has been a great resource for helping us in choosing restaurants in our new city. Recently they released the best breakfast spots to eat. One of the places featured was Stopsky's Delicatessen, a Jewish deli on Mercer Island, for their spin on Eggs Benedict. For a Jewish deli twist, you can order the your eggs with pastrami...

Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal

Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal
I swear there is nothing better than freshly baked cinnamon rolls hot out of the oven. The only negatives are the calories and the time it take to make the cinnamon rolls. I will get to making them soon, but until then I'll stick with healthy cinnamon roll oatmeal. I like to think of it as a cinnamon roll in a bowl. I cooked a generous...

Eggs: Four Ways

Eggs: Four Ways
Dustin and I have gotten hooked watching Worst Cooks in America from the Food Network on demand. We started watching it out of curiosity, but it has actually really grown on us. If you haven't seen the show, two celebrity chefs (in the third season the chefs are Anne Burrell and Dustin's favorite, Bobby Flay) have a team of home cooks who have...
