Life Through My Eyes
Bang Bang Shrimp. Need I say more? I LOVE the Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer at Bonefish Grill. Actually, it’s pretty much the only thing I get when I go there… the appetizer portion is a great entree size for me! I’ve been wanting to make this at home for a while now, and this afternoon …
Tonight, for dinner, I made stuffed Pizza Rolls. Started off by making the pizza dough in the afternoon. You can, of course, just use store-bought pizza dough. I do that plenty of times when I’m making Pizza at home. I just decided to make this on a moment’s whim and had none at home to …
These Spinach and Cheese Swirls are a great and quick, appetizer or snack! You will need: 1 sheet of [Pepperidge Farm] Puff Pastry 1 egg 1 tablespoon of water 1/2 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and …
To serve alongside my homemade fried chicken, I made smashed potatoes Thursday night as well. Here’s how: I took small potatoes in a pot, added water [just enough to cover the potatoes], and let them cook over high heat until the potatoes were fork tender. Meanwhile, line your baking sheet with foil [for easy cleanup], …
Pizza Puffs. Pizza Bites. Whatever you want to call it. These Pizza Puffs are a great finger-food snack, or would be great as an appetizer for a party. What you will need: 1 and 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour 1 and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder 1 and 1/2 cups of milk [I used 1% …
I am not usually a fan of biscuits, but for some reason I’ve been wanting to make my own for a while now. Probably because the rest of my family love biscuits as a side order or a snack. These homemade ones, that I made today, turned out great — soft, fluffy, moist, and absolutely …
These homemade [and baked!] chicken tenders couldn’t be easier to make. I quickly made these for lunch today, and my family loved them. Basically what I did was: I took cube boneless chicken breasts and cut them into even, thin pieces [for uniformed cooking time]. I then marinated the chicken with: salt pepper garlic powder …
I love Hummus, and have been wanting to make my own for a long time now. For some reason, it seemed like a daunting task. In a bind, and having a hard time figuring out what to make, I made this as an appetizer for the Superbowl this year, alongside my Blackberry Crumble Bars. It …
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like these biscuits that are originally from Red Lobster. I devour them, and probably fill myself up with them before I am even served my dinner. And then take some home at the end of the night. I love them. Tonight, I made them from scratch at home! What you …
One of the most comforting food for me are chicken nuggets. And I love making mine homemade. Here’s how I make mine: Mix the following seasonings: salt, pepper, garlic, ginger, paprika, and cayenne pepper. I use this seasoning as a basis for pretty much everything. And I mean everything. Those seasonings you just mixed? Sprinkle …
