Buffalo Chicken Dip

February 1, 2011 |

So, my oldest, bestest friend Beth is a genius. A couple of days before Christmas, she invited a bunch of girlfriends over for a “dip party”. It’s absolutely as awesome as it sounds. Everyone brings their favorite dip along with the recipe to share. Seriously genius. A small group of us sat around her kitchen [...]

Last week I shared my top 5 food goals for 2011, one of which is to eat and cook more adventurously. When eating out, I’d like to try different types of food, as well as ethnic cuisines that I have not had before. And while cooking at home, I want to try foods that I [...]

Last week I posted the Cucumber-Tomato Bruschetta in Phyllo Cups appetizer and told you all about the recipe contest I am currently in over at Kraft’s Breakstone’s sour cream site. To recap (and in case you didn’t happen to read that post), Kraft asked me to create three separate menu items – appetizer, main dish, [...]

While I love pizza all year round, it certainly seems to become more of a staple as the weather cools. Not only do we find ourselves ordering in more often, but pizza just seems like the perfect option when you’re sitting down to watch a football or hockey game. Even better is that there is [...]

The extent of my experience with chicken pot pie had only been a recipe that my grandmother shared with me a few years ago. It was really good. Really, really good. It also included about half a box of Bisquick. I kid you not. Now that fall has arrived, I began craving your typical comfort [...]

Another Thursday installment of the Barefoot Bloggers, and this Thursday features Ina Garten’s Parmesan Chicken, a wonderful selection from Megan of My Baking Adventures. Chicken pounded thin, coated in a traditional breading of flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs/Parmesan, and then sauteed in a combination of olive oil and butter – this is a classic dish that [...]

What a fabulous meal! This was my first time making homemade pesto and the smell of it brought me back to my childhood and images of my grandfather tending to his garden. This was a great break from our usual dinners and something that I will definitely make more often. Thank you to Barefoot Blogger [...]

Not too long ago, after I fell in love with Cook’s Illustrated magazine, I began recording the America’s Test Kitchen show on PBS. I have really enjoyed watching many of the recipes being made, picking up some tips and tricks along the way. An episode that I saved from a couple of months ago featured [...]

This is a nice light version of the typical Italian dish, risotto. I came across this lighter adaptation on Cooking Light and only made a couple of slight modifications on the original recipe. There are no leftovers to speak of, so you know it was a hit! This was also a great clean-up meal since [...]

This is a delayed Mother’s Day weekend post When I had my mom and sister over on Saturday for lunch, I made my mom’s favorite lunch – chicken salad. I didn’t follow a recipe but just threw together what I thought sounded good. My mom loved it! I served these on croissants – you could [...]
