Hello there! Here’s a simple one for you. It’s homemade cocktail sauce! I can’t take credit for this one. It’s Dustin’s concoction. If you’re looking to serve shrimp cocktail during a holiday or a gathering, wouldn’t you want something more to serve as a dipping sauce than one that’s pre-made […]
Appetizers & Sides
Bar Pizza
Hello, and Happy Super Bowl Sunday! This is one of the dishes I made for game day — an easy and super delicious bar pizza. The one big difference between this pizza and others is that I don’t use any flour to roll out the pizza dough. Once the dough […]
