Artichoke Cheese Dip

Artichoke Cheese Dip by hamms

I can not begin to tell you how absolutely delicious this was! My good friend, Susan, made this for New Year's and I was astonished at how easy it was! You literally throw everything in your slow cooker, wait an hour, and enjoy. She served this with crackers which I thought was great-not as heavy as bread and really let the flavors…

Spring Seafood Soup

Spring Seafood Soup by hamms

I believe I found this recipe in Cooking Light several years ago. The first time I made it I was floored by its fresh, delicious flavor. It was the first time I ever made something and thought, "this tastes like something in a really good restaurant!" Celebrate spring (it really is coming despite all the snow!) with this delicious…

Cheese & Roasted Red Pepper Paninis

Cheese & Roasted Red Pepper Paninis by hamms

I have been waiting all week to make these paninis. And, finally the day has arrived. First, I will tell you how I made ours-you're on your own from there. Basically, it's an Italian grilled cheese sandwich-the kind of cheese is up to you. As I love goat cheese, I chose to use that. My husband, not a fan of goat cheese, decided upon…

Grilled Shrimp & Asparagus Noodle Bowl

Grilled Shrimp & Asparagus Noodle Bowl by hamms

I can not express how much I love my Cuisinart Griddler. It may very well be my favorite piece of kitchen equipment-well, aside from my KitchenAid Mixer. There really is a reason for bringing this up. Not only does this little beauty make delicious paninis, it makes indoor grilling a breeze. Tonight's meal is a modified version of…

Veggie Frittata

Veggie Frittata by hamms

I love a good frittata. More often than not, however, there is a lot more egg than vegetables, or other ingredients for that matter. In the spirit of making a healthier version, I offer the following 6 serving veggie frittata.

Sweet & Yummy French Toast

Sweet & Yummy French Toast by hamms

This past weekend we had some wonderful friends come to stay with us. And, of course, I couldn't wait to cook up some yummy food for them. For dinner I made one of my favorite recipes that I found by a fellow FoodBuzzer: Bugs Bunny Pasta Toss. For dessert, I made a new Hungry Girl recipe I had not tried before for Peanut Butter…

Irish Spice Cookies

Irish Spice Cookies by hamms

So, I'm not sure why these are Irish, but I found this recipe and thought I would give it a go. I had to make some changes, such as swapping out the shortening for real butter, and coating with green sugar. I was pleasantly surprised with the texture and taste-they are kind of like mini spice cake cookies. Give them a whirl...if…

Quick & Easy Pot Roast

Quick & Easy Pot Roast by hamms

I don't use my slow cooker nearly as much as I should. I have even bought cookbooks chock-full of wonderful sounding recipes hoping to get inspired. The problem I find, and I know this sounds incredibly lazy, is that many of the recipes seem like so much work-so much cooking before even getting to the crock pot. I just want to throw a…

Tiramisu

Tiramisu by hamms

Believe me when I tell you-this is incredible. Do not be surprised if you find yourself standing in front of the fridge in the middle of the night snacking on this-I know, because I have been there-multiple times. This does need to sit for several hours so make the day before. In fact, I think the flavor intensifies the longer it…
