Cauliflower Macaroni and Cheese

Jan13

I always am so interested in what the most popular recipe is on my blog, and over the years it has been the ham and egg crepe squares, my easy method for making homemade ricotta cheese, and for the longest time, my little lasagna cupcakes. But for the last YEAR or so, it has been my cheesy cauliflower casserole.

So with that in mind, I decided that if regular old cauliflower and cheese was such a winner, a macaroni and cheese with cauliflower in it would be pretty great too! Which is how this recipe for cauliflower macaroni and cheese was born. Let’s make it!

Sloppy Joe Stuffed Potatoes

One of my favorite suppers are baked potatoes stuffed with all varieties of things. Taco filling, cheeseburger filling, even clam chowder filling – if there is a way to smoosh it into a baked potato, I’m gonna do it. So it was only a matter of time before I worked my way towards filling up a warm and wonderful baked potato with a scrumptious, overflowing amount of sloppy joe mixture. And I’m telling you true…the potato beats out the usual sloppy joe bun HANDS DOWN. Ready to sloppy joe your baked potato? Let’s make it!

Instant Pot Tomato Barley Soup

I would love this easy recipe for Instant Pot tomato barley soup simply for its thick, hearty flavor, all full of tomatoes and carrots and scrumptious barley. But I also love it because I can whip it up in about a half hour in my beloved Instant Pot. And in these days right after the holidays, I love it because it is all kinds of healthy after a season packed with hot cocoa ice cream floats and goat cheese truffles and various other scrumptious things. Ready to give your Instant Pot a soup recipe the whole family is going to love? Let’s make it!

Lobster Shepherd’s Pie

If you’ve been reading my posts for a while know, you know I have a mad crush on shepherd’s pie of all kinds. And I have ruthlessly broken all shepherd’s pie rules by not using the proper lamb filling, but making shepherd’s pie with everything from beef to chicken to turkey. Since I love lobster pretty much as much as I love shepherd’s pie, it’s a mystery as to why it took me so dang long to put the two of them together but hey, better late than never, right? Ready to seafood-up your shepherd’s pie? Let’s make it!

Filet Mignon Carpaccio Salad

Okay, I know this filet mignon carpaccio salad is a dramatic one. Carpaccio is, after all, raw meat or fish that is pounded super-thin and served, well, raw. And much as I love it, I know not everyone is a fan of raw stuff, but those who are, this is so decadently scrumptious that I couldn’t resist. Ready to wow your adventurous dinner guests? Let’s make it!
