Hot Smashed Potatoes

When I was in college, my younger sister found this ridiculous t-shirt with a cow and a pig dancing on the front that says, "I love carbs!" Which was made slightly less ridiculous, because I really, really do. I wore that shirt proudly 😉 I need to resurrect it to wear while whipping up these... Continue Reading →

Shrimp Etouffee

Have to start somewhere right? For our very first blog post, I give you a pretty easy recipe for shrimp étouffée. The other day we saw some nice-looking fresh shrimp on sale and snatched it up. So we were trying to plan a dinner around said shrimp. I caught a glimpse of Emeril on TV,... Continue Reading →
