Ginger-Soy Fried Rice

Ginger-Soy Fried Rice by The Happiest Belly

I love, love, love fried rice. When my husband's out of town, it's one of my go-to recipes (just like the salmon recipe below). It's great because it stores well and uses ingredients that I always have on hand. I may change up the veggies and play around with different proteins, but it's always delicious!Serves 2-3 as a…

Crispy Spicy Shrimp

Crispy Spicy Shrimp by The Happiest Belly

My new favorite food. EVER. If you've ever eaten at Bonefish Grill, this recipe is very similar to the Bang Bang Shrimp. Crispy, crunchy, spicy, sweet, tangy, rich...I could go on and on! It's so good that I can't just eat it as an appetizer~ it MUST be an entree in my house! I also love how simple it is to prepare this dish. I use…

Blueberry Muffins with Cinnamon-Streusel Crunch

Blueberry Muffins with Cinnamon-Streusel Crunch by The Happiest Belly

Do you know anyone who doesn't love a good blueberry muffin? I don't! My husband isn't a big fruit eater, but he goes bananas for these yummy muffins filled with plump berries and topped with a rich, brown sugar crust. I honestly think that it's the streusel that knocks these out of the park. Try it with other muffin recipes too; you…

Rasberry-Pecan Crumble Bars

Rasberry-Pecan Crumble Bars by The Happiest Belly

I'm back! I've been a negligent blogger these past few weeks... I thought I'd come back with one of my favorite dessert recipes. It's buttery and crumbly with tart raspberry preserves running through the middle. My husband asks for these all the time! I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.Yields: Approximately 24…

Summer Corn Salad

Summer Corn Salad by The Happiest Belly

Summer Corn SaladThis summer corn salad is one of my favorite barbecue side dishes. Roasting the corn on the grill gives it a beautiful sweet flavor that pairs well with the crispy peppers, onions and cucumbers. A simple balsamic vinaigrette brings the whole dish together. I love serving this salad alongside grilled chicken or fish,…

Yellow Cupcakes with Classic Chocolate Frosting

Yellow Cupcakes with Classic Chocolate Frosting by The Happiest Belly

These cupcakes are about as good as it gets! Moist yellow cake topped with a classic rich and creamy chocolate frosting. My husband loves to take extras to work to share, and they are always devoured quickly in our house! I love how quick and easy these cupcakes are to make; you'll definitely get your chocolate cake fix in a portable,…

Pot Stickers

Pot Stickers by The Happiest Belly

Pot StickersI thought it might be nice to follow up last week's post on crab rangoon with my recipe for homemade potstickers. These little dumplings are filled with the tastiest mixture of pork, ginger, garlic and a few other simple ingredients and are, like the crab rangoon, much easier to make than one would think. I usually buy one…

Crab Rangoon

Crab Rangoon by The Happiest Belly

Crab RangoonThere's nothing better than a delicious appetizer! Crab rangoon happens to be one of my favorites when we order Chinese, so I knew I had to learn to make it at home. I could probably even eat an entire meal of just these delicious little dumplings! They are crispy on the outside and filled with a savory and sweet mixture…

I figured I should post this recipe so that you wouldn't think that everything I make contains bacon or butter! Believe me, you won't miss either in this recipe. Quinoa is one of those…

Cajun Crab Cakes

Cajun Crab Cakes by The Happiest Belly

Cajun Crab CakesI am a big, big fan of the crabcake. A great crabcake should be crispy on the outside and filled with sweet, tender crabmeat and very little else. When I was pregnant, I had to watch the amount of seafood I ate. I could have little more than a few bites of crabcake (which is nearly impossible!). The minute I was able,…
