She's the Bross

Since I wasn’t really great at keeping up with my weekly menu recaps last year, I decided to try something different this year: a monthly recap. You can click most of the pics below to take you to the recipe. And, here is what I made in January… enjoy. Pioneer Woman cinnamon rolls | Technically I [...]

Okay, since this recap is LONG overdue, it’s going to cover the past 6 weeks. I’ll keep it short and sweet with pics and links. Here goes… [week 46 - november 12 - november 18] skillet vegetarian curry chicken noodle soup slow cooker beef curry [week 47 - november 19 - november 25] work thanksgiving [...]

[week 38] The only thing I “cooked” week 38 was at my mom’s on Friday night. We got together for her birthday and grilled burgers, bacon-wrapped jalapenos, and ribs. Fun with family and great food… can’t beat it. [Saturday] OU v. Kansas State – the game was awful, but tailgating and hanging out with friends is [...]

[Monday - Labor Day] With leftover hamburger meat from the Whiskey-Mustard Meatballs, I stuck with the Pioneer Woman kick and made her delicious patty melts for dinner on Monday. Let’s just say the main ingredients are meat, butter and cheese… so, for obvious reasons this recipe should be labeled as “healthy.” So worth the artery clogging though. [...]

[week 35] Overall a pretty boring week on the cooking front. I made two different types of meatballs… turkey and beef/pork combo. Very different results… Earlier in the week, I had some leftover ground turkey so I made these turkey meatballs with a greek yogurt/sriracha dipping sauce. I am so paranoid when cooking chicken and [...]

So, I’m pretty behind on my menu recaps… but I’m going to attempt to catch up on the past two weeks THIS week! And yes, I didn’t cook anything until Thursday during week 34 (aka 2 full weeks ago). Thursday: cookbook club Our second cookbook club gathering took place on August 23. If you aren’t [...]

This week was a little more successful on the cooking front. I actually planned AND executed two whole meals. Lately, that is quite the accomplishment. Monday: DATE NIGHT – dinner and a movie! Rare for us for sure. We had some leftover funds on an Outback gift card so we went to use it up. [...]

Last Thursday I got to meet (I use that term VERY loosely) the very famous food blogger, the Pioneer Woman, aka Ree Drummond, aka Ann Marie Smith. If you know me, you know how much I love the Pioneer Woman. If you have read this blog for more than a day, you know how much [...]

I didn’t cook a lot this week, but I plan to cook lots of fun appetizers for the big game tomorrow so I thought I’d share in case you were still needing some ideas. This week was pretty busy so the only thing I made at home was homemade pizza. One of my favorites! I [...]

This recipe requires you to make the Pioneer Woman’s burgundy mushrooms at some point. To say that they are amazing is an understatement. So much flavor and a perfect side dish for almost any meal. They require a full 9+ hours of cooking, so I threw mine in a crockpot and they turned out fabulous. [...]
