Lemon Pound Cake with a Tangy Lemon Icing
This Lemon Pound Cake is deliciously moist and bursting with a fresh citrus flavor. A slice of pound cake is the perfect accompaniment to a hot cup of coffee or tea. It’s a great recipe to start off the new year after all of those comforting fall dishes. I don’t know about you, but I’m really looking […]
Diver Scallop And Shrimp Puttanesca with Butternut Squash Noodles
I’ve made this Diver Scallop and Shrimp Puttanesca twice in the past week. It’s a little salty, a bit spicy, and super-savory. Made with simple and fresh ingredients, it’s a great weeknight meal. Even though this dish takes a little longer than 30 minutes to prepare (breaking my rule of calling it a weeknight meal), a […]
Macadamia Nut English Toffee
During our honeymoon, we stopped at a little boutique chocolate factory in the Marlborough region of New Zealand. They offered free tastings, so we tried a variety of confections. However, our favorite was the Macadamia Toffee. As if one side wasn’t enough, they coated both sides of toffee with milk chocolate and finely chopped macadamia […]
Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
After a weekend spent in a 30-something degree garage building a new kitchen island, Elliott and I needed something to warm us up. I dug around the kitchen and as soon as I saw the cream of chicken soup and salsa, I knew what I wanted to make. Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup. By using […]
Pistachio English Toffee
A week or two ago, I posted the recipe for Macadamia Nut English Toffee. It was the first toffee recipe that I’ve posted on That Oven Feelin’, but I knew right away that it wasn’t going to be the last. Even though I don’t eat many sweets, I really liked having a little toffee in the […]
Slow Cooker Carnitas
When looking for inspiration at the grocery store, there is always one section that I tend to skip over. I closely scan the beef, seafood, and chicken counters, but have never really stopped to look at pork. This past week, the butcher was organizing large pork butts (shoulder) and I thought, why not? An 8 pound […]
Blood Orange Pound Cake with An Orange Zest Icing
This blood orange pound cake is incredible. I don’t use that word often, but I really do think this pound cake deserve the praise. I’ll even say it again: incredible. The pound cake is deliciously dense and moist, without being heavy. The oranges add a bright, citrus flavor that’s perfect for the spring. Of course, we still […]
Slow Cooker Korean Lettuce Wraps
Okay, here it is. Pork Butt Part II. If you’re a little confused, let me explain. Last week, I bought a large pork butt at the grocery store. I used half of it to make some pretty awesome Slow Cooker Carnitas and saved the other half for these Korean Lettuce Wraps. These lettuce wraps are super-easy to […]
Cinnamon Apple Sweet Potato Waffles
My waffle iron gets a lot of use in my kitchen. However, it’s been years since I’ve put waffle batter in it. I’m constantly adding different ingredients to my waffle iron to see what happens. I started with some simple waffle iron hash browns, but have moved on to crazier things like waffle iron pizzas and […]
Maple-Candied Bacon
This recipe is just in time for Valentine’s Day. What’s more romantic than candied bacon? Okay, maybe I can think of a few things, but this is definitely somewhere on the list. This maple-candied bacon is sweet, savory, and will make you wonder why you didn’t try it sooner. This bacon is glazed with brown […]
