Warning all nut lovers!  You will die for these!! These things are mighty amazing if I do say so myself.  It's got butter, -- one of my favorites if you haven't figured that out by now ;] -- pecans, and a bit of gluten-free flour mixture.  Plus they are rolled in confectioners' sugar for the final step.  I don't know how something could...

I hope everyone had a great and Merry Christmas!!  Mine was quiet but warm!  Some people may be jealous of that fact but it's just not the same without a cold, white Christmas and a loud (sometimes bickering) family.  ;]  I know that it's technically past Christmas day but it's not past New Years.  New Years parties require just as many goodies as...

Hiiiiiii!  I was watching Jeopardy last night and on the show was a category of cooking terms.  The word that caught my attention was "what is Julienne".  Which I didn't know so for those of you who don't know too it's "To cut into long, thin strips, matchstick like in shape."  I was totally going to share another recipe with you all today...

I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to be writing and sharing another scrumptious food recipe post with y'all!!  All that I could think about on my way home from work while stuck in Miami rush hour (not recommended to anyone) was "can I just be home already so I can work on my post!?"  Instead of doing posts last...

Happy Happy Friday!!  I've been sitting around nervous all morning not being able to focus because I've been waiting for a phone call about a possible job offering.  And...it involves photography!  So, of course I ask that you keep your fingers crossed for me please!  I am guilty of making plans before I even get offered a job but if I do get...

Here is a delicious cookie for day 2 of the Valentine's Day Special!  You all should be proud because despite the fact that I didn't get these blogs posted when I wanted…they are still being posted before Valentine's day!!  I had a lot of fun making these cookies.  Adam even helped out a little and gave me a rare opportunity to get some...

This idea was pretty much handed to me on a fork! ;)  My best friend Holly texted me one day and said that they were having shish kebabs the next night.  Of course I was like, Yum!  She then took it upon herself to tell me that I should make them for my blog.  For some reason before she said that it didn't...

Happy Halloween everyone!!!  I've been wanting to post this recipe for a while now and I finally have the perfect day to do so.  Also, how can I not do a typical fall post!?  This recipe is for the ultimate pumpkin lovers out there.  It's a pumpkin cupcake with pumpkin frosting on the top.  It's pumpkin everything to the max!  Even I could...

I need to start off by apologizing (which I'm pretty sure I've done before...sigh!) because a little while back I said that I was back to blogging and now you'll notice that I haven't been doing many posts.  We are going though a rough-time but I PROMISE that once we get settled this will never happen again.  Ever!  Now thank goodness that's out...

As promised... new (and much better photos)!! Okay guys so I'm just going to point this out so you guys don't have too... my pictures for this post are terrible!! I'm embarrassed to even use them!!  However, the food the is very, very good and I just had to make do with what I had so that I could still share this recipe...

Adam and I have only been to cuban food restaurants twice so far, but already I know that two staples on their menus are yuca and pork.  Seeing as the official day of fall was a few days ago as well, what better than a crock pot recipe to start off the season that you can also call a cuban dish!  We found...

I don't even remember where I came across this recipe but it doesn't even matter because once I made these nothing else mattered!  They were that good!  I was extremely skeptical because I've never had that much luck at making chips/crackers.  The original recipe comes from this blog here and I don't make it any differently besides using different herbs.  As you'll find...

If you guys read my last post you know that I had quite the time trying to make this banana bread! I guess all things happen for a reason and it was for the best that it didn't turn out the first time.  This time I was able to add a couple of ingredients that I didn't have on hand last time (and...

Last week was just terrible for my food blog!  I started on Tuesday fully intending to get back into the grove of twice-a-week postings.  I was making banana bread which for some reason I had been wanting forever!  I was even almost done making it and I got to the point where you have to cook it in the oven for about 40...

Today was a productive day for me!  Of course when your momentarily unemployed you can get a lot done during the day.  ;)  I was able to make some homemade mayo which I think turned out to be my best batch yet!  Of course I always say that but maybe it just keeps getting better and better!!  Then I was able to get...

So, here we are trying another one of Adam's ideas.  This time it's a low carb, ketogenic diet to try and alleviate any overgrowth of bad bacteria in my intestines.  We are trying this because fermented foods like kefir and kombucha cause me a little stress when consumed right now instead of being beneficial. Sounds yummy right!?  Anyways the point to all this...

WOW!  I can not believe that it has been over a month since I have done a blog post!  First off, I do apologize for such a long absence.  I would like to say that I was so dang busy that I couldn't do any posts but that wouldn't be completely true.  I guess life just took over a little bit and I...

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend last week and if you're anything like me I bet this week just can't end soon enough.  I don't know what it is about getting a little taste of a break from work and then all of a sudden the week after just seems to continue on forever!  Of course it could also be the...

I know that it has been an incredibly long time since I posted phase 1 of making Kombucha (growing a scoby) but as I always say better late than never!  Right!?  Okay, well some of you may have found this extremely frustrating especially if you grew your scoby but then didn't know where to go from there.  I do apologize. My scoby actually...

HaPpY BiRtHdAy to MoM, HaPpY BiRtHdAy to MoM, HaPpY BiRtHdAy dear…. It's my mom's birthday!!!  She may think she's another year older but in my mind she's another year younger!  ;)  It's not a birthday without a birthday cake.  When I asked my mom what she wanted she said a chocolate cake that's fluffy.  I took that to mean that she pretty much...

Alright all,  so here I am super excited!  For some reason when I have completely spontaneous blog posts I feel that those are the ones that turn out the best.  I woke up this morning and I was like wow I really need to do a post.  It's Friday already and I've only done one so far this week (which is just not...

This homemade ice cream recipe was a must.  It was Sunday afternoon and it was very very hot and muggy like it has been for what feels like forever now.  I also live in one of those homes where the parents like to save money and never turn on the AC!  ;)  I came across this recipe on Facebook and immediately was like,...

Hey everyone!  I haven't posted anything this week because I am so excited that my parents Farm Share starts this week!  I would like to share with you a blog post from Adam's blog (Eat. Run. Rehabilitate.) and actually it was a guest post for his blog... So, that would make this like a double-guest blog post right!?  Well anyways this post was...

Well Adam just walked in the door and I've been home for about an hour now logged into my computer and I still didn't even have a single word written for this post.  Guess I'm just feeling quiet inside and I'm finding Facebook to be overly distracting today.  Usually it doesn't get too much attention from me anymore but I liked what I...

Well would ya listen to that?  Shhhhhhhhhh  It's quiet… only the tv and a lawn mower in the background, everything else is quiet.  That's a rarity since I've been back home living with the familia!  The girls have gone to the library and as for mom and dad...well who knows but they disappeared somewhere as well.  It's just me and the dog for...

I have been wanting to do this post F-O-R-E-V-E-R!!  Like, you guys have no idea.  I have been longing to do something with sun dried tomatoes just because I think they are going to be my new fetish along with a cold rice or pasta salad.  I have such a bad thing for sun dried tomatoes that I thought it'd be fun for...

I have no idea what happened to me but the week just got away from me! I made this recipe on Sunday fully intending to have it posted on Tuesday and then the next thing I know it's Wednesday!  I wasn't feeling so good on Wednesday afternoon either so I didn't get it written then.  So, here I am sitting in a truck...

This is the last for the morel mushroom recipes that I've tried this year.  I've heard from several people that this is their favorite way of adding morels to a meal.  Partially because you can freeze the morels depending on if you have too much to be able to eat fresh and the other part is because it's just pure deliciousness.  Especially if...

Here's another Morel recipe for all those Morel lovers out there! It takes a little bit of effort and patience to get them this good but after taking the time to hunt for them this is nothing.  I also found to really crank these puppies out it worked well to team up with another person. Here's another Morel recipe for all those Morel...

This was a first… hunting for Morels!  My grandpa dropped some off earlier in the week that I used for a recipe already but my aunt insisted that until you went through the hunting of morels you just couldn't appreciate them to the fullest.  Which turns out to be true!  Besides the fact that they almost completely blend in or hide under other...

For those of you that live in morel country I'm sure by now you know that it is morel season!  I've heard of morels and have known that for years every spring people like my grandpa go in hunt of the rare short seasoned mushrooms.  I've never eaten them myself due to not being a big fan of mushrooms but this year was...

Howdy Readers, Adam here! I don't make too many posts here on A Dash of Delish but I wanted to take the time to let you all know why there hasn't been many posts from us this past week. The reason is as you may have guessed is that we are moving! Not the web-host or domain but our actual physical location is...

This whole idea was Adam's!!  Woohoo he can do more than Athletic Training!  ;)  We were at the grocery store one day and I wanted to get some Mahi Mahi and he wanted to get some tiny shrimp.  Then one day we didn't have leftovers for lunch so he decided to make us a salad and made up some salad dressing to go...

I love lasagna!  I have even forgotten how much I love lasagna until I made it this past weekend.  It has been a very, very, very long time since I had lasagna.  So, like any other times I get cravings I go online and on Pinterest and start finding recipes. I love lasagna!  I have even forgotten how much I love lasagna until...

Well I know I posted 3 posts already for Easter but I guess I'm going to have one more!  I made this cheesecake for Easter with my family.  Adam, my mom, my dad and I all loved it.  My sister's on the other hand where not crazy about it but they were never really big fans of cheesecake to begin with.  So, I...

I think it's been long over due that I do another seafood recipe.  This one turned out pretty well and I'm excited to share it with you.  It's also kind of fitting because today I gave my two weeks notice to my current job and this summer I will be moving to Miami, FL!  Where I'm sure there will be a plethora of...

I'm basically doing a post on this recipe just to separate it from the main dish that I actually made this with this past weekend.  I figured instead of doing one really long post that's pretty much a whole meal with several recipes that I would break it down and do links to each other instead. I'm basically doing a post on this...

I googled it…yes googled it!  As one that was afraid of eating all things sea food not too long ago, I had no idea if meals existed out there that had jellyfish as an ingredient.  Well call me ignorant but now I know the answer to that!  In case you didn't know… yes it's true people cook and eat jellyfish!  Now is the...

A longgggg time ago some of Adam's classmates and fellow AT friends asked if I could do a blog on how to start a batch of Kombucha.  Well I'm finally getting around to it and if you ask me this is a perfect time to start it because who after all wouldn't want to start making a nice refreshing drink for summer!  For...

So someway or another I never manage to stick to the schedule that I want to keep but I guess that's life…unpredictable.  Unlike most holidays, I'm still posting before Easter Sunday actually occurs. I guess that is okay, right!?  I had a lot of fun making this last Easter treat of the season.  I did save (what I thought was) the best for...

Well Tuesday was just one of those days where nothing could go right.  Adam was working the entire evening and so I was left to fend for myself.  Which typically is fine, and I even had a plan… Stop at the mall on the way home from work, make some dinner upon getting home, and then turn on some CSI and begin writing my second Easter...

I am so excited for this week.  I spent the entire weekend working on 4 blog posts!  Three of which are Easter related and that I will feature this week for the Easter Holiday.  All of the posts that I will do this week are new for me so I was very exited to try them out and see how it went!  I...

This post today is going to be a little bit different than what I "normally" do.  My life has been kind of exciting lately in the "diet" world!  My coworkers have decided to hold a weight-loss challenge for a month.  They will be trying to incorporate some of the guidelines that I follow.  The "diet reset" that Adam and I did about a...

It's been a busy week with the Final 4 for D3 college basketball and this past weekend the movie Divergent came out and my sisters' claim it's AmAzInG!!  So now I'm dying to watch it!  This recipe is one I've been wanting to share with you guys for quite a while.  To me it seems to be the latest and greatest in not...

Adam's basketball team won the tournament that they played in last weekend which means they made it to the final 4!  That also means that the day after we had to have a big championship breakfast!  We made some delicious french toast a while back, and the pictures turned out fab.  So, I thought I'd share it all with you! Adam's basketball team...

Hey everyone I’m trying out something new today by writing for my friends at Pairdd!  We came up with this one together thinking it might be helpful to have some snack ideas for when you are on the go.  With spring just around the corner it seems that life always starts to get busier as the snow melts.  ...

Day 2 of beautiful spring weather and of course this time of year we all know that it's too good to be true.  Tonight it's forecasted that we are going to get 4-8 inches of snow!  Ugh!  At least it's a little sign that spring might finally be on it's way and hopefully we won't get any more "polar vortexes"!  St. Patties day...

I am just so proud of myself this weekend!  ;)  It has been pretty busy around here with Adam working basketball and it being March madness.  It's finally starting to feel like spring so we also want to get time to be out and about.  I've also been working on some potential big things coming up in the future that are very exciting...

Sometimes I sure do things a little last minute…like document and write my blogs the night before.  What can I say though!  I'm a busy person like I'm sure a lot of you are as well.  Because I'm so busy it also makes me really tired so I'm one of those if I don't get 8 hours or more of sleep I become...

If your anything like me then the term Yuca is pretty much a foreign one.  I guess you could say I've lived a sheltered life when it comes to food but then again I was very picky when I was younger and just plain old fearful of trying foods outside of my comfort zone.  The first time we went out grocery shopping with...
