This saucy little number got a makeover yesterday.

This saucy little number got a makeover yesterday. Personally, I love a messy sandwich. Or anything, really, that's piled between two buns, can't help falling out the sides a little, and requires separate lap, hand, and face napkins. And a little drip down the hand your holding it with. I know, it's not very lady like. But there is something about a sandwich like that. : : This is just an extra Crispy Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich with Saucy Slaw. It's a carrot, radish and cabbage slaw with a simple dressing. Extra saucy. And there's extra sharp cheddar on there. So easy and simple, and so crazy delicious. I like these especially as spring starts rolling in, but I eat them all through the summer time. They might just be my favorite sandwich, although I say that about anything when there's slaw involved. : : What's your all-time favorite kind of sandwich and are you a messy sandwich person? Let me know! : : #slaw #chickensandwich #messysandwich #sandwichesofinstagram #chickenburger #drippy #messyfood #foodporn #f52gram #thekitchn #huffposttaste #bhgfood #buzzfeast #thecookfeed #feedfeed #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #easyrecipes #summerrecipes #tastemade #imsomartha #thespruceeats #wherewomencook #buzzfeedfood #midwestmom #momswhoblog #foodbloggermom #momblogger #mombloggers #foodiemom

Have you had Indian Butter Chicken? It's chalked full of so many warm, sweet and heady spices like turmeric, cardamon and cinnamon stick just to name a few. This recipe does not skimp on the sauce either. Its like a tomato based gravy with tons of cream and, you guessed it, butter. It's highly addictive and best served with basmati rice and naan bread. Pile little scoops onto the naan bread and it it like a soft, Indian nacho that you cannot get enough of. Or just use the naan to clean your plate of all the yummy sauce. : : : #indianfood #butterchicken #butterchickenrecipe #basmatirice #naan #naanbread #familystyle #familystylefood #indianspice #familydinnernight #takeout #chickenrecipes #chickendinner #easydinners #dinnerinspo #foodblogger #momswhoblog #foodbloggerpro #heresmyfood #f52gram #feedfeed #buzzfeedfood #imsomartha #thespruceeats #thewayweeat #lodgecastiron #castironskilletcooking #thecookfeed

Super (get it🤣) excited about this #superbowl54snacks collab hosted by @cilantrochronicles ! : : What's better than an entire day dedicated to foods you can eat with your hands all day long without stopping? That's what this holiday is really about. : : This Chicken Ranch Zucchini Flatbread has it all, and you can bake it on a sheet pan! Its got a homemade chewy crust, a ranch sauce (I heard ranch is the universal symbol of super bowl Sunday) a whole head of roasted garlic sprinkled on top, slivered red onion, zuchinni, THE CHEESE, and rotisserie chicken. Recipe is on the blog! : #superbowl #appetizers #gamedayfood #flatbread #recipes #feedfeed #f52grams #thekitchn #thewayweeat #ranch #homemaderanch #homemade #partyfood #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #food52 #huffposttaste #bhgfood #buzzfeast #thecookfeed #food52 #midwestmom #momswhoblog #bloggermomsteam #eat #eats #eatingwelleats #cookingwithlove #imsomartha #sheetpanrecipes

CHEWY, SPRINGY FOOD TRUCK NOODLES! So last time I

CHEWY, SPRINGY FOOD TRUCK NOODLES! So last time I posted my Mexican restaurant salsa, I was very surprised to hear that nobody had seen it with cabbage before! That's how all the restaurants make it back home so I figured it was common. Which brings me to these FOOD TRUCK NOODLES. Is there a cerain noodle you think of when you think Food Truck Noodles? They also serve these at the fair, and tent festivals... does anyone know what I'm talking about? Maybe I'm in my own world here 🤣 Moving on...did you know if you BAKE YOUR BAKING SODA (literally sprinkle baking soda on a baking sheet and bake it at 250 degrees for an hour) and add it to your basic pasta dough recipe it gives you those CHEWY, SPRINGY, almost ramen like textured noodles?!! They are so good when thrown down on cast iron with grilled onion, cabbage and carrots and a light stir fry sauce, in my mind: they are like the noodles from the food trucks!! So good. The recipe is on my blog, and while you don't have to make your own noodles, I really recommend buying an Asian egg noodle, it's what makes them so good. You won't typically find these in the pasta aisle (in the US) they are normally in the Asian food section so look there. Also, you can totally skip the meat in here altogether and just do the veggies :) Last tip: cast iron is going to be the best way to get all the amazing caramelization on the meat and onions that makes these noodles so good. But, if you don't have one don't let that stop you. Truly though, my @lodgecastiron pan is my favorite pan, it was under 20 bucks and it'll literally last the rest of my life. If you are thinking about getting one, it takes food to the next level. It's just the way cast iron is :) #foodtruckfood #truckfood #festivalfood #festivalfoodtruck #noodles #noodles🍜 #stirfry #stirfrynoodles #stirfryrecipe #bakingsoda #easychickenrecipes #asiannoodles #eggnoodles #eggnoodlestirfry #asiannoodle #asiannoodles #dinnerinspo #dinner #soysauce #mombloggersofig

It's the salsa with the cabbage in it! You know the kind, the super addicting restaurant style fresh salsa that they never give you a big enough bowl of? I used to crave this stuff so badly when I was pregnant. My husband would make late night runs down the street, sometimes with just minutes to spare before closing because I had to have it. I really can't get enough of this stuff. Especially with warm, homemade tortilla chips. And being as Sunday is the designated sweatpants day, I can eat all the chips and salsa I want. There's a couple little ingredients in this fresh salsa that I think make all the difference, but are often left out of a lot of recipes. You kind of don't know they are there, but without them something is missing. The recipe is up on my blog if anyone wants it. And I highly, highly recommend you make this for game day. Or sweatpant Sunday :) : : #salsa #chips #gameday #snack #snacktime #appetizer #cabbagesalsa #partyfood #footballsunday #chipsandsalsa #thekitchn #feedfeed #f52grams #bhgfood #imsomartha #spicy #mexicanfood #salsarecipe #picodegallo #homemade #midwestmom #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #easyrecipes #saveurmag #buzzfeast #forkfeed #foodgawker #thecookfeed #huffposttaste

Whatya' gonna pick? Whole wheat Ham n Cheese Hot P

Whatya' gonna pick? Whole wheat Ham n Cheese Hot Pockets. I grew up loving hot pockets, but these days, 4 kids later I'm not loving the idea of all 237 of those ingredients listed on the side of the box for my family. Nevertheless, hot pockets are great because they're portable and easy to eat. What's not to love about gooey melty cheese sauce with ham in a soft and chewy warm pocket of happiness? The crust on these is absolutely perfect, it's soft yet has a slight chewy bite and a touch of sweetness that is made even more delicious with the nuttiness of whole wheat. You control the quality of the ham you use and the cheese sauce is very lightly seasoned and oh-so-good. Recipe on the blog! I've also included links to other recipes for anyone who is trying to get their family off of processed, boxed foods. Sometimes its helpful to ease them into it with copycat from scratch versions of their boxed favorites. Get my roundup (so far) of these recipes on the blog :) : : : : #hotpocket #wholewheat #cheesy #portable #kidfriendly #realsimple #thespruceeats #familyfreshmeals #buzzfeedfood #feedfeed #huffposttaste #foodprnshare #droolclub #f52grams #thekitchn #tastespotting #forkfeed #foodgawker #kitchenbowl #kingarthurflour #bhgfood #buzzfeast #foodblogfeed #fromscratch #yum #damnthatsdelish #tillamook

Totally making these today. Toasted chicken avocado salad hoagies. They are loaded with rotisserie chicken, avocado, fresh greens (like romaine, arugala, spinach, whatever u get your hands on) and dill, tomato and red onion, a but I shredded sharp cheddar AND the most delicious poppyseed dressing on toasted hoagie rolls. Yum! (Dressing is juice of lemon, dab of mayonnaise, @bobsredmill poppyseeds, salt and pepper) : : : #delicious #yum #sandwich #poppyseed #dressing #sandwiches #sandwichesofinstagram #hoagie #chickensalad #easydinner #simple #fresh #realfood #veggie #veggies #toasty #toasted #eeeeeats #damnthatsdelish #feedfeed #f52grams #thekitchn #huffposttaste #realsimple #thespruceeats #wherewomencook #buzzfeedfood #imsomartha

Whole wheat sesame seed burger buns, because life

Whole wheat sesame seed burger buns, because life is still busy, and it's nice to make your own To-Go food, but a healthier version. Think I'll put some salmon or chicken on these tonight with lots of avocado and whatever other veggies in my fridge that need a life purpose. Simple recipe on the blog, don't forget the homemade mayo! #burger #buns #wholewheat #healthy #homemade #fromscratch #fromscratchwithlove #onthego #sandwich #dinner #dinnerideas #dinnerinspo #healthyfood #heresmyfood

Garlicky Lemon Linguine with Greens, Chicken, Pine

Garlicky Lemon Linguine with Greens, Chicken, Pinenuts, and Parmesan. (I'll pick a name eventually) Have you been needing more greens in your life? Do you also have a love affair with pasta, like me? Do you like really fast, easy meals that happen in one pan? (You don't even need to make sides with this!) : : This linguine has aaaall the greens. And nuts. And a handful of cheese. Even avocado. And lean chicken breast pieces. (Omit for a lighter or vegetarian version). 25ish minutes to make, and you can have your pasta and eat it too. : : Saute garlic and shallot with chicken breast pieces. Remove the chicken to a plate once browned. Deglaze with a cup of sherry. Reduce. Pulse your favorite leafy greens like kale, swiss chard, spinach, or whatever, along with brocolli, asparagus, (u get the idea, use what u got, or like-p.s. frozen works too) in the food processor with a drizzle of olive oil, juice of lemon, and avocado. Toss with cooked linguine, a cup of starchy pasta cooking water, in the skillet along with more cheese and pine nuts (or walnuts). Squeeze more fresh lemon, salt and pepper to taste and extra parm. Yum. More detailed recipe heading to my site todayish. : : #pasta #pastalover #greens #eatyourgreens #dinnerideas #dinnerrecipes #foodblogfeed #feedfeed #imsomartha #huffposttaste #bhgfood #cookingfromscratch #midwestmom #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #easyrecipes #yummly #realsimple #eater #thespruceeats #buzzfeedfood #damnthatsdelish #forkfeed #foodgawker #f52grams #thekitchn

It's almost time.... personally one of my favorite

It's almost time.... personally one of my favorite things about Christmas is the brunch. And by brunch, I mean mimosas. It's citrus season! In the words of our dear friend, @dorindamedley , let's MAKE IT NICE, and fresh squeeze all the citrus for the most delicious mimosas. Grilling the fruit first adds a lovely depth of flavor, and adding some festive garnishes makes it an easy holiday cocktail. We use @barefootwine Bubbly because it's the one sparkling wine they sell in a 50 mile radius, but that being said, it's a pretty tasty affordable bubbly! I like it. Wishing everyone health and happiness and to be with the ones you love. It is with a very grateful heart that I say I am so thankful that my family is in good health and everyone is home. For those of you who are going through difficult times, illness, or are missing someone who is not at home, your healing is in my family's thoughts and prayers. For those of you that have someone overseas, thank you from the bottom of my heart for what your family goes through for those of us who are at home. But to everyone, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year❤ : : #merrychristmas #makeitnice #barefootbubbly #thankyougod #loveandlight #drinks #dranks #cocktails #cocktailsofinstagram #champs #mimosa #f52gram #feedfeed #huffposttaste #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #easyrecipes #drinkrecipe #citrus #orangejuice #freshsqueezed #brunch

Got Christmas parties? This is that BBQ sauce I mentioned in that flatbread the other day, and it works great made right in the instant pot, or thrown in a crock pot or on warm with your meatballs, or little smoked sausages, or roasted cauliflower... basically any bite size food that can be eaten with a toothpick :) : : #bourbon #honey #bbqsauce #homemade #sauce #jimbeam #appetizers #holidayparty #slowcooker #slowcookerrecipes #instantpotrecipes #instantpot #partyfood #snacks #f52grams #huffposttaste #bhgfood #feedfeed #foodporn #cookingfromscratch #foodblogger #foodbloggerpro #foodblogfeed #whisky #bourbongram #whiskygram #recipe #recipes #sauces #delicious

You know those Loftouse sugar cookies from the store? Of course, we all know how good they are. These Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies come pretty close (but better 🤫) plus the kiss of cream cheese, not just in the frosting but baked right into the cookie. Because who doesn't love a kiss from cream cheese?

Baby, it's cold outside! Warm up with red wine braised roast beef sandwiches and pan au jus. (A french dip? Ok sure.) Plus, if you gotta open up that wine you may as well drink some too. I'm telling you, this au just is dreamy. It's actually my whole reason for making the sandwich. It's made from the red wine and drippings, and then finished on the stove top (right in that same cast iron you braised in, that's where the flavor's at!) with some goodies and the smallest pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the wine. Its REALLY REALLY good, and I would dip my grilled cheese in it too. And anything else I could find to dip in it. : Recipe and exact how to's are on the blog now!!
