Taco Salad in a Bag (Walking Tacos)
I heard of Walking Tacos a couple months ago, I think from a friend on Instragram (Be sure to follow us!). I was of course curious, but until recently didn’t look into them much further. What is a walking taco you ask? It’s pretty funny to call them that I think, because 1 there is […]
Guest Post by Emily from Love, Pasta and a Tool Belt
Today I am so excited to have a guest post shared by the lovely Emily from Love, Pasta and a Tool Belt. Emily offered to guest post and I was so happy to have her visit! And it worked out to be perfect timing because my schedule has been a little crazy! Here’s Emily for […]
Shepherd’s Pie
Shepherd’s Pie is one of the most comforting homey meals I have ever eaten. Ground beef, vegetables, mashed potatoes and ooey gooey cheese. What’s more homey than meat and potatoes? This recipe is really easy too. You just cook the ground beef with a little seasonings. Boil and mash the potatoes. Pour everything in a […]
Guest Post: Middle-Eastern Flank Steak
My name is Nate, and I am Aimee’s husband. While Aimee is frequently baking up a storm in the kitchen I am outside grilling up a feast. I absolutely love grilling and love the flavors you get from cooking with charcoal. Aimee recently gave me a rotisserie for my grill as a gift, and I […]
Beef Stew Pot Pie
Isn’t pot pie the perfect meal for a cool autumn day? With the cooling weather and our awesome portable oven, Nate and I decided to head to the canyon to cook some pot pies. Instead of chicken we had leftover stew and thought it would be the perfect alternative. It was. about 6 cups of stew (including […]
Skillet Lasagna
I love Italian food. I love pizza. I love pasta. I love gelato. But one problem with some Italian meals is that they take a long time to make. With pizza you have to wait for the dough to rise. With any baked pastas you usually have to boil the noodles, cook the sauce and then bake […]
Crockpot Beef Stew
Stew doesn’t seem like a normal meal to eat in early September, but yesterday ended up being a perfect day for stew. I started this meal in the crockpot yesterday morning before I left for work, lately we’ve had pretty warm days with a few slightly autumny days in between. I left for work at […]
Shredded Beef Tacos
I’ve made shredded pork and chicken tacos a countless number of times. But last week I decided I wanted to switch it up a little. Shredded beef tacos. What a novel idea right? Just as simple as my crock pot chicken tacos. Just as delicious. Just beef.
Dutch Oven Beef Enchilada Casserole
The weather has been pretty amazing here in Utah for the past week and a half or so. Especially last weekend, to the beginning of this week. The weather was in the 80s. The end of the week brought slightly cooler temperatures, but much more spring like, with temps in the 60s. Last Monday I […]
Mongolian Beef
I’ve attempted a few different Chinese dishes lately in the attempts to save us from ordering take out. So far, its working. This dish, inspired by Favorite Family Recipes Mongolian Beef (inspired by PF Chang’s) is a winner. So make it.
Beef and Broccoli
Whenever we have friends or family over for dinner (although its not very often). I like to try out a new recipe. But the problem with trying a new recipe when other people are coming for dinner is that if it doesn’t turn out, its not only mine and Nate’s dinner that gets ruined, but […]
Sloppy Joes (Aimee’s version)
I know sloppy joes are pretty simple, but until about 2 1/2 weeks ago I had never made them before. I looked up probably 6 different Sloppy Joe recipes and then made sure to ask my mom what she put in hers. Although her text message consisted of onion, ground beef, tomato sauce, mustard, BBQ sauce, brown […]
Brisket Quesadillas with Mango Peach Sauce
I love cheese, but after a few experiences I have learned that I am not really a fan of what I would call “strong cheeses”. Bleu cheese. Goat cheese. Gouda. You name it, I don’t really like it. But I’m always willing to give everything a chance. One chance. So when this recipe called for […]
Sloppy Joes
Sloppy Joes, okay I know when you read that title you thought “everyone knows how to make these”. Everyone may but we all make them just a little bit different. What brought me to write about them and share my recipe is because on Wednesday I received a text from Aimee asking what I put […]
Western Burgers
Whenever we go out to eat at a burger place I always get the same thing. They have different names, (at Legend’s Grill its the Homestyle Burger, at Carl’s Jr it’s the Western Bacon Cheeseburger, or at Smashburger it’s the Beehive Burger) but its the same basic burger. Bun. Beef. Cheddar. Bacon. Onion Rings. BBQ […]
Taco Soup
As I’m sitting here trying to think of what to write as a prelude to this delicious recipe, my mind is blank. And I’m realizing that some of you might not even read the stuff I write in each blog post. You might just be here for the recipe. And there is absolutely nothing wrong […]
