Manageability – Happy gross brownies. Brownies are known to all mankind as a comfort food. Perfect for a Sunday night in, curled up with a good book, maybe a warm fire crackling away in the corner, with a glass of milk nearby and two cats resting peacefully on your lap. They’re also known for drugs.Continue reading “Karissa’s Vegan Kitchen’s The Best Fudgy Vegan Brownies”

Manageability – Super easy! I usually do some kind of bit here at the top of my recipe reviews to draw in my readers, get them laughing, and get them excited about the dish. Sometimes I’ll put in a pun that rhymes with the food, or some kind of story from my own life thatContinue reading “Yuri Elkaim’s Spicy Garlic Oven-Roasted Chickpeas”

Manageability – Complicated, but oh-so worth it. Chicken and rice are like Food 101. Ninety percent of all meals, recipes, and “Top Chef” winning dishes either have chicken, rice, or both. I’m pretty sure when the first fish-like being emerged from the oceans millions of years ago and began to live on dry land, theyContinue reading “RecipeTin Eats’ Chicken Biryani”

Manageability – So easy I memorized it. Some cocktails are weird and complicated. Made by mixing like horseradish bitters, shaved pickles, and a blended wasp nest, with a pepper-rimmed glass and one old stalk of corn. Get out of here with your complicated ass drinks, Trystram. I just want a martini and I want itContinue reading “Snips, Nibbles, & Bites Limoncello Martini”

Manageability – Ummmmmmm…. pretty darn good. When I was a kid, I used go to Aunite Anne’s Pretzels in the mall specifically to watch the 17 year-olds spin and fold pretzel dough. This was before we had phones, so that was entertainment for me. Fast forward 25 years, and I got to fold and tieContinue reading “Sugar Spun Run’s Homemade Garlic Knots”

Manageability: Kinda easy, honestly. I don’t have to tell you how good of a chef I am (really good). You know Martha Martha Martha can cook cook cook. But I’m only human, y’all. I don’t want to have to bake a whole rooster, or un-spike a pineapple every Wednesday night for dinner. So I presentContinue reading “Giada’s Fresh Potato Gnocchi”

Manageability – Complicated but cute. Like me 🙂 Hey food eater. Did you know desert doesn’t have to be all sugar and dairy and fat and crap? It’s true! In fact, some deserts are straight up …. vegan! I know, it’s crazy right?? For a prime time example of one of these marvels of modernContinue reading “Bianca Zapatka’s No-Bake Blackberry Mousse Tart”

Manageability – Damn easy. You know what goes with summer? Grilling. You know what goes with BBQ sauce? Pineapple. You know what goes with delicious, cute, and easy? Damn Delicious’ BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabobs. Congratulations, you have just graduated from culinary school. That was the final exam. That was it. As is always the caseContinue reading “Damn Delicious’ BBQ Pineapple Chicken Kabobs”

Manageability – You got a freezer. America was founded on two basic principles: freedom and laziness. And I spend every waking moment of my god-given USA-ness being both of those things. So when I had an opportunity to make my own bomb pops – you know, like the ones the ice cream man used toContinue reading “Meg’s Every Day Indulgence’s Creamy Lemonade Bomb Pops”

Manageability – Medium effort for amazing lemonade. When I was growing up… not that you need to know how old I am, or have any right to ask… but when I was young, Chef Emeril Lagasse was known for two things and two things only: “Bam!” and “Kick it up a notch!” Other than that,Continue reading “Emeril’s Strawberry Lemonade”
