These baked chicken drumsticks are chicken wing killers. Figuratively speaking, of course. I can almost guarantee it that most of you, if not all, will be making these drumsticks in place of chicken wings at least on occasion. Most likely on many occasions. I know I will. And guess what I will be serving at the next Super Bowl party? That’s right, my super crispy, deep-fried-like, baked chicken drumsticks. Seeing how popular my extra crispy baked chicken wings recipe has been, I decided to try it on chicken drumsticks....

Easy keto cinnamon rolls (aka fathead cinnamon rolls) might just be one of the greatest low carb keto breakfasts of all time. Unlike fathead bagels and fathead pizza (which are totally delicious in their own right), this recipe puts a sweet spin on this classic dough. It’s fluffy and aromatic with a layers of the best keto brown “sugar”, cinnamon, melted butter… and of course, a drizzle of icing at the end....

Garlic butter chicken breast uses a handful of basic ingredients that cook down into a savory butter sauce.

These sky-high muffins are moist, healthy, and an ideal bridge between the fall that is still here and the holidays that are to come. Made with molasses, whole wheat flour, and a heap of holiday spices, their flavor is rich, warm, and even tempted me to turn on the Christmas music (too soon?). At the same time that these muffins ring a holiday bell, however, they also honor fall. I squeezed every bit of sweet, crisp apple into the batter that it could possibly hold....

FavoritePinShare The flavor combination in these blondies were so good. The maple glaze on top was my favorite part! It was like a caramel maple glaze and gave it such an awesome finishing touch. We went camping this weekend as a family. I sure love the mountains in Utah. They are so peaceful and beautiful. Fall is definitely in the air and the leaves were beautiful. I love the changing colors in the leaves....

Grape salad is cool, crunchy, and surprisingly refreshing. Sure, it sounds a little weird (kind of like Pineapple Casserole), but boy does it hit the spot! Walking through a buffet line at a Midwest picnic, you’ll see a lot of white (Potato Salad; Shrimp Salad; Creamy Cucumber Salad). Even items that would usually be green (like Pea Salad) look white, thanks to the plethora of mayo- and cream-cheese-based dressings. Add in fluff salads (which are made with some combination of Cool Whip, Jell-O, sour cream, and mini-marshmallows), and you have a sea of white that all looks more or less the same....

Made with a luscious feta cheese sauce, LOADED with Mediterranean vegetables, and topped with a ridiculously tasty pita chip topping, it’s a fresh twist on everyone’s favorite cheesy pasta casserole. I can’t say with any shred of historical accuracy that Greek mac and cheese is how Aphrodite seduced every god on Olympus, but I think it’s a reasonable theory. (I would also venture a guess that this Greek Layer Dip was also in her arsenal....

This Grilled Shrimp Seasoning is only four ingredients, three if you discount the salt. I bet you have all of them in your pantry right now. It doesn’t require you to marinade the shrimp first. As someone who loves the idea of grilled shrimp marinade (especially if it’s for Coconut Pineapple Shrimp Skewers) but often lacks the foresight or patience to marinate it first, not needing to block off the extra prep time earns this recipe a shiny gold star in my dinner book....

Grilled Vegetables Every time I make this, someone always asks “what did you put on the vegetables?” They never believe me when I say “Just salt, pepper and olive oil”! There is no fancy secret to this. It’s just chargrilled vegetables, seasoned with salt and pepper and drizzled with olive oil. The “must do” part is cooking the vegetables until they are charred (i.e. burnt!). It’s the flavour base of this entire dish!...

I know there is a world of barbecue sauces out there and I still have a lot to explore. But, so far, I can confidently say this is the best BBQ sauce I have ever tasted. And it’s 100% made by moi! Not that that’s a huge feat, on the contrary. It takes less than 15 minutes on the stove and no special skills required....

You will soon notice that I am beyond obsessed with this Ham and Cheese Quiche. I simply cannot stop eating it and I’m probably at my 3rd slice just today! I’m afraid Tim will get home from work and there will be none left… ? Oh, who do I think I’m fooling? I am not ashamed AT ALL. I could eat this whole quiche by myself, decline to share it with the Pope and still not feel guilty!...

It’s Saturday 27 December, 2 days after Christmas, so I bet there are millions (billions??) of households around the world having ham for lunch. Sure, you could throw together a ham sandwich with fresh bread (yay, shops are open today!), or a frittata using other leftovers from your Christmas Day feast. Or you could do something a little different and make this chowder. 🙂 “You could make yet another grilled ham and cheese sandwich to use up all that leftover ham…....
