Loaded Potato Bites
Have I got a fun little appetizer for you. Envision bite-sized baked potatoes loaded with sour cream, chives, cheddar cheese and bacon. Pop-in-your-mouth Loaded Potato Bite goodness. New potatoes are popping up at our local Farmers’ Market. I remembered one of my sister Sarah’s recipes and ran with it.

Homemade Blondies {Feeling the Love}
I logged onto my computer this morning and was greeted by 85 new Facebook friends. Whoa! Those of us who use Facebook to promote our blogs have been feeling a little bewildered lately. Facebook has implemented new algorithms that ultimately reduce the number of people that see our posts (typically only 1%…yikes). The way to fix that, at least in their eyes, is to pay to “Promote” our posts.

Monterey Loaded Nacho Fries
I know for many families Friday is Pizza Night. At our house we’ve been toasting the end of the work week with a cold beverage and a tray of Nachos. Last Friday we made a big pan of roasted corn & poblano nachos with sausage and queso fresco. They were amazing. Tonight it’s Monterey Loaded Nacho Fries, inspired by our crazy good Monterey Chicken recipe.

BBQ Chicken Pizza
I should have named this my “Chicken or the Egg Pizza” because I couldn’t tell you which came first, our desire to make Pizza or to make Homemade BBQ Sauce and Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing. Both of which found their way onto this BBQ Chicken Pizza.

My Writing Process – A Blog Tour
Greetings! This is not your typical Lemony Thyme recipe post. Today I am participating in a Blog Tour. One week ago I had no idea what that meant. However, because I was asked by Trisha with The Lazy Mom’s Cooking Blog, I couldn’t resist. Trisha is witty in a way that draws you in and keeps you entertained. She will make you chuckle out loud and want to drink wine with her. And while I love that about her, it’s her spectacular photography that first led me to her page. You’ll want to get in on that action at http://www.thelazymomcooks.com/.

Arancini {with Basil Pesto & Marinara Sauce}
Arancini {with Basil Pesto & Marinara Sauce} I was the girl who grew up eating my spaghetti with butter and parmesan cheese. No red sauce for this kid. I even scraped the sauce off pizza before eating it. Over time I fell in love with Alfredo Sauce but still avoided tomato based sauces for the most part. It was all about white sauce in our home, with lasagna and occasionally meatballs being an exception. This all changed on Christmas Day.

Classic Shrimp Cocktail {with Cocktail Sauce}
We were completely spoiled last night with the gift of 7lbs. of fresh off the boat Georgia Shrimp for our birthdays. Two pounds cooked, peeled and ready for Shrimp Cocktail and 5 lbs. to go into the freezer for future Shrimp fests.

Fritos Casserole
There was no way on earth I intended to make a Fritos Casserole, never mind admit that I did and share it. It just happened. And it was good and tasty and our Facebook friends asked for the recipe. Which I made up as we went along. But here it is.

Herbed Scrambled Eggs {in Avocado Boats}
There was a cooking show on Food Network a while back that we really liked. I can’t recall the name of it, but the host would always feature the ‘obedient ingredient.’ That’s exactly what I did this morning. I bought a few too many avocados this week so I’m turning them into serving vessels. Our Herbed Scrambled Eggs were quite happy in their avocado boats.
