Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin

September 30, 2021 Amanda Plott

Look. I don’t know. I have a problem with queso. It’s just the perfect and most ultimate food in my personal opinion. And this Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin is Fall perfection. It’s as easy as taking a small pumpkin, hollowing it out, and backing your queso inside it for a fun and festive way to get your queso on.

And… everything in moderation, right? This Bacon Queso Baked Pumpkin is the most amazing way to save queso in the Fall season. It’s visually appealing, and I mean… how do you even go wrong with queso anyway? If it’s wrong, I don’t want to be right…

Baked Buffalo Chicken Taquitos

It’s tailgating season and sometimes that means you need nothing more than some good buffalo chicken something or another. These Baked Buffalo Chicken Taquitos are loaded with nothing more than that. Buffalo chicken goodness warmed up with some cheese, hot wing sauce, and not much else.

I’ve made my fair share of buffalo chicken things in the past, but these taquitos have to be one of my favorite buffalo chicken bites. They’re super simple to make, and absolutely delish. Plus, you get to make them as mild or spicy as you want!…

Club Sandwich

Who can say no to a traditional club sandwich? This Club Sandwich is made just a little better-for-you with a few simple swaps that keep it perfectly classic and yet guilt free! As with any club sandwich, this one starts out with sliced deli ham and turkey, and then paired with bacon, cheese, tomato and some lettuce. All on some toasted bred with a smear of light mayo.

It’s good stuff and goes well with a light salad, a cup of soup, or even some salt and vinegar kettle chips like I had. It was simple, classic, and so so good! Of course, I wouldn’t say no to some pickles on the side too…

Burger Bowls

Coming in LATE today with these Burger Bowls. What is it? A burger? A bowl? The answer is YES. These are bowls made out of burger and then loaded up with all the burger goodness you know and love. Lettuce, cheese, pickles, etc. It’s all here in one beefy bowl.

One of the best parts of these burger bowls is that they are so SO easy to make and still look wildly impressive. It’s one of those super clever ways of serving dinner that kids and adults will both be able to enjoy and make their own with their own toppings…

Pumpkin & Sausage Queso

September 12, 2021 Amanda Plott

Not all queso is created equal. Although, I don’t think that I could ever turn a queso away. This Pumpkin & Sausage Queso is PERFECT for Fall. It’s loaded with a little bit of pumpkin flavor and a lot of warm spices and a real kick-in-the pants! Naturally, while it’s hatch chile season in Texas, I served mine with some green chile hatch tortilla chips and YUM.

This queso is a bit more on the extra spicy side, what with the added chipotle, spicy sausage, and of course peppers as far as the eye can see…

Chili Cheese Tater Tot Casserole

September 9, 2021 Amanda Plott

Dinner is served! With my daughter being in cheerleading this year, there’s at least one day a week where we are rushing out the door between picking up from school, changing, and getting back up to the school. Oh, and somewhere in between that is dinner. That’s where this Chili Cheese Tater Tot Casserole comes into play.

This delicious casserole is not only quick to make, it’s also easy and only requires four ingredients. One of the best parts is that you can make it ahead of time and reheat later OR put the casserole together and store it in the fridge until ready for the final bake to enjoy. Either way, it’s super convenient!…
