You’re welcome. You can now have beer, cheese, and bacon in ONE biscuit. These are cheesey drop biscuits. The drop refers to the method that they are shaped. No fussy rolling and cutting. Just scoop up the dough and plop it onto a pan. To give them a little more decadence I have stuffed them …
Carrot Cake Griddle Cakes
Seriously like eating cake for breakfast. These griddle cakes use Carrot Cake Jam in place of the sugar. This not only cuts down on the sugar but adds tons of flavor. Pre-heat a griddle on med-low heat. Whisk the dry ingredients together in a large bowl: 1c flour 1 ½ ts baking powder ½ ts …
Bacon & Beer Jelly Sticky Buns
Beer and bacon are served for breakfast in this Potlicker version of sticky buns. Such a treat! The beer jelly imparts a mellow beer flavor and is less sweet than using cane sugar alone to make sticky buns. Try making these with Apricot Ale jelly and white sugar for a light and fruity taste or …
Cheesy Herb Bread
This bread is reminiscent of deep dish cheese bread except it is not as heavy or as greasy. The texture is actually more biscuit-like except with pockets of cheese. When we enjoyed this bread I used Cabot’s Horseradish Cheddar (my absolute favorite Cabot cheese!) but I bet it would be killer with any one of …
Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
Like pig candy only better!! While making these bacon cookies I was a wee bit skeptical of my own decision making skills and it must have shown. When I asked Tall Dark and Handsome how much bacon I should add to the cookies he said, “What does the recipe call for?” I said “What recipe?” …
Peanut Butter & Jelly Muffins
In need of comfort food? I am. Accident and injury prone me has been laid up yet again this year. I swear I'm not a complete klutz! Not being able to do things for myself is a huge downer because I am pretty sure that I can do anything and everything when healthy. Lucky for …
Red White & Blue Jam Scones
These pretty little scones are a tasty and festive treat for the 4th of July. They are great for breakfast or dessert and pack well for picnics and outings. Best made a day ahead of time, the recipe is very forgiving and can be adapted to what you have available. I have made these with …
Nut’n Berry Smoothie: Allergy-free and Anti-inflammatory
Nut’ n Berry Smoothie. AKA: allergy free protein smoothie. Tall-Dark and Handsome calls it the Ugly Berry Smoothie. Remember when I lost my taste buds? I am still troubled by it. Some of the lingering effects of my condition include constant itchiness and the inability to eat anything remotely spicy (a tragedy!). In an effort …

Sweet Potato Pancakes
I love sweet potatoes! But really, who doesn’t?? As with any food, I think whether someone loves or hates a food often depends on how it is prepared. For example, people who hate cauliflower will never be converted with a plate of steamed florets. However, if you smother it with cheese and put it next …
Brussel Sprout Burger
Truthfully, these are more like mini frittatas but since I eat them like a burger and it just sounds more fun, I call the brussel sprout burgers. Being such a huge fan of brussel sprouts I often make extra large batches just so I can eat the leftovers. This is one of my favorite ways to use b.s. leftovers. …
