Chocolate Krispy French Toast Balls With Maple Vanilla Glaze
I wanted to come up with a clever name for these and that was the best I could do. I’m normally more creative but the fat might be finally going to my head. I really love french toast and haven’t made a variation on it yet, so I figured it […]

It’s Cold. Here’s My Baked Shrimp Saganaki with Tuttorosso Sauce
Do you know how delicious this is? I don’t think you do. But you can read on and/or make it and find out. It’s pretty f’ing easy. The fine folks at Tuttorosso sent me this awesome sauce kit the other day, and I wanted to test out one of their […]
