Chicken Chilaquiles {with Fried Eggs}
Chicken Chilaquiles. Chee-lah-KEE-less. Chicken-ala-cheese-ness. There are about a bazillion corn tortillas in a package. Have you noticed that? No matter what recipe I make with them, inevitably I will have half a bazillion leftover. That’s what led me to this classic Mexican dish. Chilaquiles are traditionally made from corn tortillas that may have been hanging around for a bit…aka stale.

Spinach & Goat Cheese Quick Bread
Let me tell you about Spinach & Goat Cheese Quick Bread. Sautéed spinach and goat cheese are the signature ingredients yet there’s so much more happening here. Fresh rosemary and thyme, cracked black pepper, garlic and lemon zest are swirled throughout this moist and tender bread.

Parmesan & Herb Quick Bread {with Caramelized Onions}
This month’s issue of Food Network Magazine is all about Quick Breads. Fifty to be exact. I had to throw my hat in the ring and have a go at it. So I made two of them. Two savory breads with fresh herbs and cheeses and aromatics. My kitchen was a swirling aroma happy place.

Parmesan & Herb Savory French Toast {with Balsamic Onion Jam}
Parmesan & Herb Savory French Toast {with Balsamic Onion Jam} is just one more reason I’m addicted to breakfast foods. Fresh herb flavors with a bit of nutty parmesan went so well with the slightly sweet onion jam. Let fresh herbs elevate the flavors in your dishes while you take full credit for the results.

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Flatbread Pizza
The things you dream of while laying in bed waiting for the first dog to stir. Naan Flatbread is so versatile and delicious. My favorite way to use it is as pizza crust. Just add your favorite toppings and bake. On this morning we turned naan into Bacon, Egg & Cheese Flatbread Pizza. Got two thumbs up for this one. Felt a bit guilty accepting praises when it took little to no effort but I got over that ;)

Masala Egg Toast
We rarely have a loaf of bread on hand, except when it’s tomato season. So for brunch today I went with a savory French Toast recipe that incorporated fresh herbs, tomatoes, and Indian spices. Masala Egg Toast might be a new favorite.

Crispy Fried Shrimp {six ways}
As a kid who grew up eating frozen fish sticks at least once a week, and loving them I might add….imagine my delight when I was introduced to frozen battered shrimp. Oh my word. What a treat. Well….that was then, and these from scratch Crispy Fried Shrimp are definitely NOW.

Buffalo Shrimp
We were gifted 7 pounds of fresh-off-the-boat Georgia shrimp a month or two back (thanks to my mom & dad in-law). I froze them in one pound packs so they would thaw quickly when we had a shrimp hankering. On this particular day, I couldn’t get enough of these Buffalo Shrimp. They were too tasty not to share.

Sweet Potato Praline Cake {Share the Love}
This Sweet Potato Praline Cake is a combination of our favorite Praline Banana Nut Muffins and heavenly Sweet Potato Casserole with Brown Sugar & Pecans. I debated back and forth on what to name this coffee cake. The cake itself is sweet, yet in a subtle way and oh so moist. The praline topping is amazing. Definitely reminiscent of a favorite Thanksgiving side dish. I thought I’d let these pictures do most of the talking. Enjoy!
