Hellloooo peeps! Just checking in with ya'll today on this Monday morning. I had one LONG weekend. Lots of snow, sleep, and making goodies. I wanted to share something different food concoctions with you all today I created over the course of 3 days, so it goes.
I decided to get invented in the kitchen again since my passion for cooking is coming back, now that I'm not scared of trying new recipes again. Isn't it fun just to make something up? I feel like a kid and a mad scientist, wahahaha!!! Throwing a little this, a little that, and wam, bam, thank ya ma'am, food is on the table. I'm not Rachael Ray, but I do love cooking nowadays =)
Alrighty then, For me, I've been on this wrap kick for my lunches lately. I get on this "kicks" of food, then I'm over it. I did that with ice cream, bananas, and probably some more stuff, do you relate? The reason I love wraps, besides being tasty; they're quick, you can add everything and anything in them from: Chicken salad with some arugula, spaghetti sauce, spinach leaves, pepperoni & mozzarella cheese, lunchmeat with roasted red peppers, avocado, OR roasted veggies and hummus, it's endless!!! (YUM, I'm getting hungry again thinking about it) I don't know why, but I love them. Here is one I created yesterday for my lunch. It's tuna, spicy guac, shredded cole slaw, and baby spinach leaves. Don't knock it till you try it people. Side of cheddar rice cakes, which I went back for seconds for. (haha)

For Friday and Saturday's dinner I made a big ol' pot of chili (which I forgot to take a pic of). But it's just the usual, ground sirloin, rotel, tomato juice, hot chili beans, kidney beans, and whole wheat spaghetti broken into thirds. I add my own spice blend of cumin, chili powder, cocoa powder, garlic, and oregano. Then viola!
Sunday, I made these yummy legs (below). Roasted them on 450 for 30-35 minutes. Brushed with olive oil, salt and pepper, then took out the oven glazed with home-made BBQ sauce mixed with a bit of cayenne for some heat. Serve with cole slaw. The hubby had mac and cheese, but I was fine with just 2 legs and some slaw.

AND....A girl can't live without her chocolate!!! Here's 2 sweet treats I've made recently. They're kind of the same, but a bit different too. I've been into marshmallows for some weird reason as well, so I just went with it.

Since loving to eat ALL things in moderation, I've came up with some weird, good, not so good, and fun combinations lately. I've found that being creative in the kitchen can be a lot of fun, and that is why I wanted to share some of my eats with all of you <3
