    A Very Good Pimento Cheese Burger

    September 2, 2022 by Lindsay 14 Comments

    HELLO, best pimento cheese sandwich meets pimento cheese grilled cheese meets a perfectly seasoned smashburger! This easy burger with pimento cheese is SO good and perfect for indoor cast iron skillet burgers or outdoor grilling. I love to make pimento cheeseburger and fries plates, but these are also really yummy with homemade potato chips!

    Ok, so where do we stand on grill vs indoor for burger cooking? I'll be honest: I LOVE a burger on the grill, but I'm also super partial to the consistency of indoor cooking (a nice way to say that I'm a control freak). Weather concerns, gas running out, regular "life happens" kinds of things can derail a great burger night plan, and when I want a burger I want a burger.

    Enter: Cast Iron Skillet Burgers. They're by far my favorite way to make burgers indoors. Super simple, seasoned just with kosher salt, a delicious crust from a very hot pan. THEN, we top the whole mess with spicy homemade pimento cheese for a creamy, cool, sharp contrast to the salty beef.

    Let's just....SAY YES to the phrase salty beef. You know?

    cooked grilled shrimp on grill pan with lemon slices

    We are in a weird busy all the time no time to breathe place. This time last year there was a decided air of "but are we allowed to do anything," and now it's a little....lighter.

    Lighter for us, though, means HERE ARE 15 SCHOOL THINGS YOU NEED TO ATTEND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WORKDAY. Which is very cute and fun and also very time consuming. #childrenareablessing

    In preparation for whatever you might be doing this weekend, hopefully with lots of relaxation and folks you love, here are my absolute favorite recipes for Memorial Day!

    Connecticut Lobster Rolls

    June 3, 2021 by Lindsay 9 Comments

    The most delicious warm lobster roll recipe, Connecticut Lobster Rolls! These easy lobster rolls are served WARM and have just six ingredients including tons of melty butter. These are the perfect recipe for all summer long!

    warm lobster rolls with potato chips

    Hello and HI, welcome to our summer of all the lobster.

    I think in this post-but-still-kinda pandemic era, it's gotten more meaningful to make really fun foods at home. We still maybe aren't traveling or eating out as much, but we still want our favorite restaurant-style foods, right?

    RIGHT.

    Enter, Connecticut lobster rolls, or the deliciously-named butter lobster roll. SERIOUSLY, friends, how does one even choose a favorite type of lobster roll? There's the New England style, cold with flavors of celery, lemon and mayo, or these warm lobster rolls that are drenched in butter, lemon juice, and served in buttery toasted buns.

    Probably both types of lobster rolls is what we need to make this summer count.

    Spinach Artichoke Grilled Cheese

    February 6, 2018 by Lindsay 1 Comment

    yumyumyum, is all I have to say about that. 

    So, the fun part of this story is that this was Beck's gateway sandwich, and what a freakin way to go, right? She's still just barely interested in any foods that are mixed, still eats pretty plain things separated by miles of plate space, emphasis on pasta and berries. I'm trying to ease her into the idea of eating whatever I put in front of her, though, with fewer options at each meal. One way I've found that she's much more agreeable to trying ANYTHING new is to have her help me make it. We got a Tripp Trapp a few weeks ago and it's been used mainly as a kitchen stool; she's fully obsessed with being able to see what is happening and test out little bits of things as we cook. 

    These were a weekday lunch inspiration based on a random bag of frozen artichokes from Trader Joe's and some cute thin-sliced sourdough that I wanted to use. Provolone and garlicky spinach rounded everything out, and local butter crisped everything up. I used pretty small pieces of bread in these (about 5 inches corner-to-corner) because there's a good amount of cheese in these, but you can use any bread and melty white cheese you want! 

    These grilled cheeses are a teeny bit time consuming because you grill the artichokes and wilt the spinach first, but I did them all in the same skillet to save on dishes and they only take about five minutes apiece. Then it's butter/bread/cheese/grill, and lunch is done in half an hour or so.
