Southern panache for your life
Growing up in “the South”, however suburban my experience was, there was always a constant in my house like many others across the southeast: grits for breakfast. My mom used to load up a giant bowl of grits with cheddar, butter, and tons of bacon for one of our weekend meals and we’d happily stuff
You guys! This is my last recipe of 2018 using the fantastic cheddars from my partners at Tillamook. I’ve done 16 recipes now highlighting their cheddar on the blog this year, and now I’m rounding it out with the BEST chicken meatball recipe swimming in a delicious pumpkin tomato vodka sauce. Holy yum! This turned
I love a good slice of cornbread. Whether it’s on its own or served with a huge helping of chili, I always find myself reaching back for a second slice. When I normally make cornbread I try to focus on having either sweet cornbread, spicy cornbread, or cheesy cornbread, but I decided this time, why

OHHHHH momma! It’s finally time to come clean about my addiction to BNS- butternut squash for those not in the know. Butternut Squash was never something I ate while growing up as my family opted for canned pumpkin for all of our gourd consumption needs. After college, I was introduced to Butternut Squash Soup and fell
Two weeks ago, I finally got to live out a five- year long dream of going to the Pacific Northwest when I explored the Oregon Coast with my partners at Tillamook. Tillamook graciously invited me and a few other food bloggers (Ashley, Rebecca, Holly & Natalie, Carian, and Deborah) out to tour one of their
As I mentioned in this post here, this creamy tomato soup was inspired by my recent trip to Portland Oregon to visit my partners at Tillamook and to attend the Feast Festival! When we were at the Tillamook Creamery, we were treated to a delicious meal that included their prized tomato soup and fried cheese curds. I

I have transcended into ice cream nirvana. I can without a doubt say that after 10 trials at home, I have created the creamiest, fool-proof, homemade strawberry ice cream. If you’ve been around here for a while you may know that I have a full-on love affair with Tillamook Strawberry Ice Cream, so if you
I didn’t intend for these muffins to be dairy-free. Honest. I have whole milk and unsalted butter in my fridge right now. I also had almond-milk based yogurt and light oat milk in the fridge and figured, heck, if anyone were to make a flavorful and chewy-almost-good-for-you-blueberry-muffin, it might as well be me. So, thus
If you haven’t heard of a smash burger it’s because it’s the griddle burger rebranded. Gone are the days of dry hockey pucks coming off the grill your dad used to man in the summer and enter the perfectly griddled smash burger made on a flat surface. Whether you have a griddle, a cast iron,
