Cheesy-Cheese Garlic Biscuits (Grain-Free Red Lobster Biscuits)
Biscuits…. revisited! I have made a COUPLE THOUSAND of these little jewels since I first posted this recipe over 1 year ago! These beauties were the #1 sellers at the Farmer’s Market and I would make 12-15 dozen twice a month and usually sold out! Yeah, they are that good! People who didn’t…
Roux-less Chicken & Sausage Gumbo
11-9-12 Update: I made this again last night. Delicious as always but I was unable to get the same smoked sausage I normally use so it was lacking that nice smokey flavor. My solution, I added smoked paprika and my Cajun House Seasoning at the end. SO good! Also, be sure to add the pepper…

Almond-Butter Spice Breakfast Cookies
Now that is a mouth full! Every time I think of muffin tops, I think about the Seinfeld episode where Elaine only eats the tops of the muffins and starts a business selling muffin tops.

Margarita Meatza Pizza
Who says you can’t have pizza! This will be a hit with the kids I am sure! You won’t even miss the bread and you will get full much quicker and not feel like you are about to go into a diabetic coma after eating it (like I used to after eating regular pizza). I…
Easy Breakfast Sausage Balls
This recipe is intended for breakfast, but by changing some of the spices would make another great meatball recipe as well as a great appetizer for a party. Normally sausage balls are filled with Bisquick but not these and they taste so much better. The Bisquick is just a filler, so lets skip that and get…
Sweet, Tangy & Spicy BBQ Sauce
I LOVE BBQ SAUCE!!! I love it on burger, chicken, pork, just about everything. I problem with the stuff you buy in the stores is all the sugar and preservatives in it. This recipe is a great backbone for the addition of other spices that you may like in your BBQ sauce. The key ingredient and the source…
