Chicken Kiev - A Dinner Inspired by YouTube During Quarantine, I've been watching one of my favorite youtube channels, Kara and Nate while I do things around the house. They're a young couple who made a goal of visiting 100 countries by Nate's 30th birthday. I've enjoyed watching all of these…
Bleenies, Kartoffelpuffer, Latka, Boxty... Much like Halupki and Halushki, Bleenies are commonplace in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, but a term not as well known outside of the area. A quick google search will show you exactly what you need to find. Bleenies we called them in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania where I grew up, that’s what…
Crock Pot Pepper Steak - One Dish Meal We came across this recipe in 2018. I'm happy with any Crock-Pot recipe that makes things easy! This certainly does and has been a staple recipe in our kitchen ever since. I do recommend using red bell peppers for appeal, the green lose…
Quarantine Menu May 3-9: Week 8 We've entered month three. Usually at this time of year we are incredibly busy with baseball and don't have much time to eat a decent meal at home each night. It's kind of nice to not have to wonder what fast food place we will…

Cheesesteak Stromboli: Taking homemade dough and sauce to a whole new level. We weren't aware the the Stromboli isn't a popular nationwide dish until we moved across the country. That means that finding one here is next to impossible. Calzones are close...but not quite a stromboli, at least where we are…
Quarantine Menu April 26 - May 2: Week 7 April is coming to a close, and we are entering month 3 of these strange times. Different states, different counties within states are starting the reopening process. We are still choosing to remain at home for the most part, and probably will…
Shrimp Scampi Matt had been requesting this for a while. This is a dish that you could easily substitute the shrimp for chicken if you prefer and it would still be just as good. You can also use zucchini noodles instead of pasta, or serve it without noodles as a side…
Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells Every time we eat these cheesesteak stuffed shells I say to myself, "I should make these more often." Every time I make stuffed shells I say to myself, "This is why I don't make these more often." You need a bit of patience, in my opinion, with any…
