Roasted Squash Crostini

Roasted squash crostini is a perfect appetizer for any party or holiday. Like many crostini recipes, this one is a delicious combination of creamy cheese, crisp vegetables and soft crostini bread. You have to make them today to see how good they are!

My favorite part of fall is all the delicious roasted squash. From soups to salads to pasta, I use so much squash between October and March that it is ridiculous. Roasted squash is definitely my favorite and I’ve been adding it to my lunch salads. I was thinking of an easy appetizer for the holidays and instantly knew I wanted to make roasted butternut squash crostini!

Bang Bang Chicken Meatballs

October 11, 2016 By Shannah Coe 8 Comments

It wasn’t until I was married with kids that I discovered Bonefish Grill’s Bang Bang Shrimp. Is that embarrassing to admit? We didn’t have one of the restaurants near where I grew up and Mathlete tends to avoid pretty much all chain restaurants whenever possible. One taste of those shrimp though and I was in love. For game day parties, I’ve been making bang bang chicken meatballs which make a great at home substitute for the delicious shrimp appetizer from the restaurant.

Sometimes during the day, I like to take a quick break and make a cup of tea. Of course, with our busy schedule, I don’t get long breaks so I tend to enjoy my tea while on the move or as I am getting back to work. No cozying up on the couch with a warm mug of tea for me. I try to sneak in a little snack like crackers with homemade spiced fig jam along with my tea as well.

Grilled Peaches with Ricotta

August 29, 2016 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

Grab a little bit of summer on your fork when you dig into Grilled Peaches With Ricotta! Grilling peaches brushed with honey brings out their natural sweetness! Adding a scoop of ricotta that is topped with a balsamic glaze gives this peach recipe a burst of summer flavor!

When we were in California at the end of July, Mathlete and I ate at The Girl and the Fig in Sonoma. For several days before, we had eaten really large meals at different restaurants so we went to dinner that night looking for just a few small items. One of the choice that night was grilled peaches with ricotta. Of course, we had to order it and it was so amazing that I came home determined to recreate the meal at home.

Fajita Ranch Pizza

One of our favorite things to do when we have a small group of friends over is have a make your own pizza night. We’ve done homemade pizza crust and some pre-made pizza crust as well. Recently, I’ve gotten into using naan or flatbread for pizza crusts and it is just so easy. Last time, I made a fajita ranch pizza that may be new favorite.
