Share This Post!This easy homemade alfredo sauce is the only recipe for alfredo you’ll ever need! It’s so creamy, doesn’t separate, and is easy to pull together! You can also pair it with SO many different veggies or meats! This alfredo sauce starts with a roux and I’ll explain why I go choose to use a roux in my recipe. It might not be “traditional” but it’s there for a reason. Why use a roux in alfredo sauce: No heavy cream! This is already a rich sauce so it makes me feel a little better about myself to use milk instead of cream. The sauce will be so creamy and have the perfect thickness to it for coating the noodles and not being runny. The sauce won’t separate. We’ve all had the alfredo sauce that separates into a greasy mess and nobody likes it. You can store and re-heat this sauce. Traditional alfredo sauce breaks when reheated but this one makes great leftovers. How to make easy homemade alfredo sauce: Heat a pan over medium heat, melt your butter then add in the garlic. Once you’ve warmed the garlic just until you start to smell it (about 1 minute), […]

Share This Post!If you are part of a Cuban family, I don’t need to explain the amazingness of picadillo to you. You already know that it’s the ultimate Cuban comfort food. But if you’ve never had or even heard of picadillo you’re probably wondering, “what’s so great about this ground beef concoction?” Well it’s savory ground beef in a tomato based sauce with spices and a few extra goodies.

Share This Post! My husband and I recently went to Charleston for the first time for both of us! With some suggestions from some local friends, we stuffed our faces and enjoyed every minute of it! It was a quick trip but we tried to pack as much great food in as possible. Honestly, it was some of the best food I’ve had in a long time and I can’t wait to go back! Our first dinner was at Fleet Landing. What a great start! It’s waterfront dining and has such a casual vibe with great food. It was pretty packed when we walked in and reservations are recommended. We started off sharing the “Fleet Landing Stuffed Hush Puppies”. They are basically a little fried hushpuppy cup that’s filled with lobster, shrimp, leeks, and corn smothered in a creole tomato sauce that I could have drank with a straw! For my entree, I had the fresh catch (snapper) and ordered it blackened. I ordered the side of cheese grits and fries (I was having a major fry craving!). The fish was so moist and cooked perfectly. The blackening seasoning gave it a big punch of flavor but wasn’t overly […]

Share This Post!If you’ve ever been to Whole Foods and had their cranberry tuna salad, you know how addicting it is! If you’ve never had it and you think it sounds weird to put cranberries in tuna salad, you HAVE to try it! It’s a really simple recipe with only a few ingredients but it’s just perfection. My sister introduced me to the Whole Foods cranberry tuna salad and I’ve been obsessed with it ever since. The only problem is that our closest Whole Foods is about 30 minutes away so I don’t go there as often as I’d like. That’s why I decided to try to create this copy cat recipe at home. (It’s also much cheaper…shhhh!) It’s a dump and go recipe with minimal prep (just cutting some onions) and it keeps in the fridge for a week. This recipe is great for making a big batch to use during the week for snacks and sandwiches. I always use Bumble Bee solid white albacore in the gold can. I have no affiliation with them but it’s just great tuna. It’s not mushy or slimy and it’s big chunks instead of tiny flakes. You can use your favorite kind […]
