When it comes to the King of Elegant Breakfast foods…Eggs Benedict is at the VERY top of the list! It’s a dish I’ve wanted to conquer for years. Admittedly it can be intimidating. However, I’ve worked hard creating a recipe that makes preparing this scrumptious royal treat a breeze! I’ve kicked it up a few notches by adding a delicious avocado spread, two types of bacon, and the most delicious Hollandaise sauce ever!

This spectacular Raspberry Bread Pudding is a Copy Cat of Kneaders Raspberry Bread Pudding with Vanilla Cream Sauce. Traditional hearty Country French Bread is soaked in a rich creamy egg vanilla batter, layered with fresh raspberries, topped off with more delicious bread… and baked to a golden crisp. The finishing touch is a healthy drizzle of a decadent delicious warm vanilla cream sauce. It’s plate licking worthy! You won’t care who is watching!
Remember the old Family TV shows and movies where the ladies in the neighborhood got together for a cup of coffee, a slice of coffee cake, and a visit? A “Mommy Time Out”! When, and better yet, WHY did we do away with that! I say we bring back Coffee Cake and mid-morning visits with friends with this easy and delicious Cake Mix Cinnamon Coffee Cake. I whipped up this Cake in a matter of minutes! It will disappear almost as quickly as you can make it! It’s melt-in-your-mouth moist with hints of swirled cinnamon streusel and vanilla icing drizzle. The perfect treat for a little “girl time”!
Long grain white rice is combined with creamy chicken soup, broccoli, cheese, and of course tender juicy chicken. The combination creates the perfect dinner dish. One that is both classically delicious, and also easy to make. I may have taken liberties with two family favorites in creating this new comfort food! I’m entitled right? lol
Asparagus and Spring go hand in hand. This Asparagus and walnut side dish is sauteed in a rich nutty walnut oil, seasoned with minced garlic, coarse black pepper, and salt. It’s topped off with creamy feta cheese. It’s truly one of the easiest asparagus side dishes you’ll make this spring and will look beautiful on your Easter Table!
I did it! I went over to the dark side! I took a perfectly innocent head of Cauliflower and turned it into the most AMAZING veggie and ham Fried Rice and topped it off with rich flavorful boneless skinless chicken thighs.I only have one thing to say… “This is Cauliflower?!!!” It’s gonna rock your socks my friends! Bonus…it’s LOW CARB! What is happening to me!
Any Lemon Lover’s out there? I’m the president of the Lemon Lover’s Fan Club. Truly! If it’s lemon…I’m ALL in! One of my very favorite lemon desserts is Lemon Meringue Pie. I took my time coming up with spectacular version…tweaking it until I had it just right. I wanted to give you a pie that was piled high with sweet dreamy Mile High Golden Meringue and filled with a slightly tart fresh creamy lemon filling. The results are this superb Mile High Lemon Meringue Pie! It’s Sunshine on a plate!
I absolutely adore Roasted Rotisserie Style Sticky Chicken. The kind you can order at your favorite restaurant, or purchase at your favorite market. Finding, and adapting, this recipe, that allows me to make it at home, was a huge “win”! Not only for me… but for all the chicks at this Nest! I know the “loves” at your NEST will enjoy this tender juicy, finger licking, chicken as much as we do.
Valentines Day should be all about the Chocolate Hearts! I just prefer my hearts Flaky, buttery, and filled with a Rich, Creamy, Dark Godiva Chocolate! Throw some sweet red cherries, a good sprinkle of powder sugar, and you can skip the diamonds and drug store card! Just hand over one of these Chocolate Cherry Napoleons and I’m a happy lady. It’s pastry and chocolate for crying out loud! I’ll be hiding out in the closet if ya need me.
I’m drawn to Crispy Crusty Artisan Bread like a moth to light! Honestly it doesn’t matter where we are…if there’s a loaf of Crusty Artisan Bread around…you’ll find me there! Some women like diamonds…I like bread! What can I say? This No-Knead Artisan Bread helps soothe my inner “bread beast”, but touch that crusty heel… and I can’t make any promises.
