I Wouldn’t Mind Having These For Every Meal, For The Rest Of The Year!

Good morning, everyone! Today I am going to teach you how to add more flavor and texture to your green beans.

I know that green beans are generally boring but not the way we are going to prepare them. These here are fancy green beans, y’all! You’ll be adding a few extra ingredients to make these really special! And guess what else! Your picky eaters will gobble up these green beans like nobody’s business. I know my children absolutely adore them.

The first time I made these green beans I didn’t have any blue cheese on hand so I shredded up some Vermont white cheddar and it worked just fine. Use what’s in your kitchen!

These green beans are great for the holiday table, especially when you and your family are sick of eating green bean casserole. Normally, nobody gets sick of green bean casserole, though. In case you do, make these wonderful fancy green beans and enjoy!

Do You Love Buffalo Chicken? This Appetizer Is Made For You!

Buffalo chicken dip is always a winner at my humble abode. If you have fans of the almighty spicy chicken wing in your family, then you have fans of this amazingly delicious dip!

My husband is crazy about buffalo chicken wings – and by crazy I mean completely insane. He could eat them for lunch and dinner every single day of his life! However, I am actually not that big a fan. Even though I do enjoy the flavors every now and then. I guess it’s more about that stickiness and mess when I’m eating them, not as much the ingredients.

That’s why this buffalo chicken dip is a huge hit at our house. It’s very simple to make and there’s no mess at all, when you’re eating it! You still get all those familiar flavors, and you can combine this with pretty much anything; tortilla chips, your favorite veggies, or even toast! In fact, if there’s any leftover dip (usually there isn’t), I like to turn it into a lunch sandwich for the next day.

Quick Tip: I like to serve this hearty dip with taco chips and celery sticks.

The Most Delicious Way To Eat Your Brussels Sprouts!

Here’s a dish that probably has fans in Hollywood – it’s that good! I haven’t always particularly liked Brussels sprouts, but I’ve been trying all kinds of new recipes so that I would learn to love them. I don’t like being picky; I want to set a good example for my kids, and I want them to enjoy their veggies. This super simple recipe does the trick for me!

What’s great about this recipe is that you could serve it on any meal of the day. I’ve made this for breakfast as is, but sometimes I’ve also added some leftover chicken or ground beef and served this bake for dinner.

Amp it up by adding your favorite seasonings! I like to add a touch of chili powder or some fresh herbs, depending on what I have at hand. I also use different kinds of cheese, just to give it some fresh flavor each time.

Most often I double the ingredients so that we are having this for dinner, and the leftovers for lunch the next day. My whole family loves this meal!

Quick Tip: Sometimes I omit the potatoes and just add other veggies instead (for example broccoli).

Everyone will rave about this buffalo chicken fettuccine pasta meal! A thick spicy hot sauce coats sautéed chicken, and crumbled up blue cheese adds tasty flavor in every bite.

So simple to make, this one will be the new addition to your meal plan routine. Thick fettuccine pasta will fill your belly while your taste buds tingle from the Frank’s red hot sauce. Add an extra drizzle to your plate to kick up the heat!

Dates have been around for over a century for people celebrating the holidays. Besides rolling them in sugar and nuts, there are more inventive ways people are eating them. And not only during the holiday season, but year round! Smoky bacon, the sweetness of the date and the crunchy almonds, all combine to make a mouth watering appetizer, to start the beginning of any meal. This recipe yields 6 servings, so you may want to double it for larger gatherings. In fact, you may want to double it, anyway, because these are super tasty!

The first time I made these I had my doubts about the flavor combination. I haven’t always been a fan of dates, but I absolutely love bacon and almonds. So I decided to give this one a try – I figured my dinner guests would eat them if I couldn’t, haha! I’m so happy I made these, after all, because they turned out to be a hit! I absolutely loved them, and so did my guests.

Quick tip: Soak the toothpicks in cold water for 10 minutes before using, that way they won’t get burned in the oven.

So you have guests arriving early. Thank goodness you found this recipe, and decided to prepare a few dishes ahead of time! Pillsbury is notorious for easy recipes, and this one is no exception. Most of these ingredients can already be found in your kitchen. If you aren’t partial to blue cheese, fresh mozzarella can be a suitably creamy substitute. You can also use pecans, instead of walnuts, or any other nut you prefer (there may already be some at your party)!

These mini cheesecakes are the perfect make-ahead appetizers because they can be served warm or cold. Even if you make them ahead and decide you want to serve them warm, you can just reheat them in the microwave for about 30 seconds at a time until warm. But I guarantee they are just as delicious when served cold!
