Foods I LOVE to Make & Bake, But Especially Eat

So I’m a little bit obsessed with cooking and trying new recipes lately. Actually, I've been like this ever since my husband I got married almost nine years ago. These are some of the REALLY good ones I’ve come across recently, and although not at all healthy, by all means, ENJOY!!

Oreo Crunch Cupcakes
Some people thought it was too much cookie and so I would take one side of the cookie off and use that in the batter.  I loved the taste of the frosting, but it was really flat.  I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my baking. :o)





German Chocolate Monkey Bread
The only adjustment I would make to this is mix everything in together instead of layering.  Heaven!





Definitely follow the comments and cut back on the lemon, unless you like a lot of lemon.




Dried Strawberries

Oddly addictive.  




Honey Lime Tilapia

If you like tilapia, divine.




Nachos... Yum :)

I love nachos and this is a light version




Sweet Potato Gnocchi

First time I ever made gnocchi and oh there were good.




Spicy Kabocha Soup

My new favorite soup.




Eggplant Focaccia

One of my favorite eggplant recipes.





Peanut Butter Cups


These put Reese’s to shame.  If you aren’t a fan of chocolate & peanut butter... make this... it’s worth trying one.  I recommend making them in the mini-muffin tins instead of the standard size because they are so rich.


Avocado Chicken Parmigiana

Simply delish!



Crispy Parmesan Asparagus
Better than bacon-wrapped asparagus.




Sweet Potato Chips
This one was a huge hit on pinterest.  My husband is currently obsessed and could eat them every single day.




Man Pleasing Chicken

Gotta love the name.
