Nothing gets my mouth salivating like dessert. If I had it my way, I’d eat it every meal for my meal. I have a killer sweet tooth and if it weren’t for practicing a bit of willpower, you’d see me on that My 600-lb. Life show. These Brownie Goody Bars put that willpower to the ultimate test. A brownie topped with vanilla frosting, sprinkled with roasted and salted peanuts, and topped with a peanut butter-chocolate-rice crispy mixture is a dessert lover’s dream. It’s got sweet and salty, crunchy and creamy. It’s over the top, rich, and something you need to make right now!

Butter Chicken Naan Pizza with Peanut Slaw

Lately I’ve been on this naan kick where I want to eat it constantly. It’s so soft and pillowy and buttery. If you leave me alone with naan and hummus, it will be gone in two seconds flat. I’ve made a meal out of naan and hummus many a night. That’s why when I found this Butter Chicken Naan Pizza with Peanut Slaw, I knew I had to make it. And why didn’t I think about turning naan into pizza?!

Crunchy Ramen Chicken Salad

This Crunchy Ramen Chicken Salad brings back so many good memories for me. After almost five years of blogging, I really don’t know why it has taken me so long to post about it. I first made this salad about 15 years ago when I was just getting started with cooking. If you’ve read my About page, you know that this all started when my mom bought me one of those Betty Crocker small magazines that you see in checkout lanes. This recipe wasn’t in that first one, but a couple of issues later. I instantly fell in love with this salad and must’ve made it a bajillion times. Then, like so many of my beloved recipes, it kind of dropped off the radar. I’m slowly going back through those favorites so I can make sure they get shared with you and find a home on the blog.

Pra Ram Long Song

I don’t make a lot of Thai food at home, but I should. I love it and there’s so many great places in Nashville to enjoy it, so I guess I never think about making it myself. I love the combination of coconut milk, curry paste, fish sauce, and peanut butter. Ok, that sounds super gross when you break down the ingredients, ha! But seriously, the sauces get me every time. So good that I want to turn the plate up and drink it! I was thrilled when I came across Pinch of Yum’s latest ebook Everyday Healthy. I pre-ordered it and couldn’t wait for the release. The recipe I couldn’t wait to make was Lindsay’s take on Pra Ram Long Song. The sauce in the picture had me wanting to lick the computer screen and I loved that it was vegetarian. It’s basically veggies and rice covered in the most amazing creamy Thai coconut lime sauce, and it fit in my calorie budget…score!

Slow Cooker Thai-Style Peanut Pork

Over two years ago (am I slow or what?), my friend Beth over at Eat. Drink. Smile. held a slow cooker contest and the winner was this Slow Cooker Thai-Style Peanut Pork. It sounds absolutely amazing and I’ve had it on my brain for a long time. Now that it actually feels like Fall in Nashville, it’s slow cooker time! I love using my slow cooker because it pretty much does all the work for me and fills my house with the most incredible smells. The hard part is waiting eight hours to eat!
