👩‍🍳 Easy Recipes that Gather People
🥰 Making Life Simple and Tasty
🎀 Ringing in the NEW Southern Belle
Seasoned. Saltines. Party Crackers. Firecrackers Seasoned. Saltines. Party Crackers. Firecrackers. Whatever you want to call these… they’re addictive! Listen, y’all. This white girl can’t handle all the red pepper flakes in Alabama Firecrackers. 😎 So, I came up with my own version with a *little bit* of spice. Now, don’t get me wrong! These are SEASONED. To perfection. Just not spicy! Okay! Say SEASONED in the comments and I’ll send you the recipe! . . . #seasonedcrackers #firecrackers #easyrecipes #gamedaygrub
I’ve been thinking a lot about this 9-year-old. I’ve been thinking a lot about this 9-year-old. How she imagined her life going, and it was not going as she thought. She dreamed of hosting parties in her own home, and now she can do that whenever she wants to. She loved even then curating a party for something, whether her dolls, her family, or her imaginary world, and now she loves doing the same thing. In June, I’ll celebrate 17 years on the internet! Yep! That was before Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, etc. Years ago, I set out to share simple recipes with easy, entertaining tips, hoping and wishing it would be my full-time income-producing livelihood. And, y’all! 9-year-old Sweetpea would think I was SO cool! 🥰🫶 . . . #foodblogger #contentcreator #sundayscaries

Chicken Cutlet Showdown. Y’all know I’ve been Chicken Cutlet Showdown. Y’all know I’ve been on a quest to make the best chicken cutlets. Well, I really wanted to know if my air fryer made a good chicken cutlet. I’ve crafted an entire post for you to read through (if you want to!) about each method. Now, this was filmed a couple of weeks ago, and I froze the cutlets. I’ve been popping one in the air fryer to reheat and I can’t tell the difference between the stove top version and the original air fryer version! Both are sensational and delicious! Say CUTLET in the comments and I’ll share the recipes with you! Do you have a preferred chicken cutlet cooking method?! . . . #chickencutlet #chickenrecipe #airfryerrecipe #airfryerchicken
Rotel Dip. Taco Dip. Whatever you want to call it, Rotel Dip. Taco Dip. Whatever you want to call it, it’s GOOD. ((And there is no velveeta!)) First things first: I love american cheese, but do not like velveeta. That chemically after-taste is just not for me. Also, there is one elite american cheese, and that’s all I’ll say… When it’s Taco Night, Game Night, Porch Party time, or anything in between, this cheesy hot dip is the thing you need to serve. 🌮 Taco Meat. 🍅 Rotel Tomatoes 🧀 Pimento Cheese (Shoutout to @qccheeseroyale !!) 🇺🇸 American Cheese (the right brand.) Baked together in a cast iron skillet, like we’re camping in our covered wagon. This is also highly adaptable! Don’t like taco meat, leave it out. Don’t have pimento cheese, double the american cheese. Want it spicy? Add in some chili peppers! Make this however you want, with whatever you want! Dip on in, friends! Say DIP in the comments, and I’ll share the recipe. . . . #roteldip #tacodip #tacotuesday #easyappetizer

If you know, YOU know! Before marinating chicken If you know, YOU know! Before marinating chicken in your fridge, place your baggie in a dish with a lip! Just in case!! While this may seem like a “everyone knows that!” thing, I hope this keeps someone from a kitchen conundrum!
Vanilla Almond Iced Tea! This recipe is a oldie b Vanilla Almond Iced Tea! This recipe is a oldie but a true Goldie! 🎉 In the south people are known by their glass of tea...and maybe the porch you share it on! 🥰 This tea recipe uses simple store bought staples, that you pour together. It’s definitely a cheater iced tea recipe, and I’ve been chastised for it...a LOT! 🤦🏼‍♀️😬 Here’s how you make it! ✅ Pour a bottle of UNsweetened tea into your drink dispenser. ✅ Pour a bottle of Simply Lemonade in the dispenser. ✅ Add ✌️ tablespoons of vanilla extract. ✅ Add ✌️ tablespoons of almond extract. 🥄 Stir them together, top with ice, and garnish with lots of sliced lemons. 🍋 It’s the PERFECT Game Day weekend drink! So refreshing with an extra zing you didn’t know you were missing in your life! 🥳 Want a printable version?! Say TEA in the comments! . . . #sweettea #teatime #southernsweettea #arnoldpalmer #beveragino

Place this in the center of your people, and let them reach in and grab what they want, when they want it! I’ve served this at the last few dinner parties I’ve hosted and everyone goes crazy over the idea! I’ve got a full write up on variations you could create, and other helpful details. Say SALAD in the comments for the post! . . . #dippysalad #saladrecipe #saladbar
Brie Cake! Cheese Cake. Layered Brie? Whatever Brie Cake! Cheese Cake. Layered Brie? Whatever you want to call it… it’s a cute way to serve this cheese! Use any flavor of jam or preserve you find. I used an Amaretto Peach Pecan preserve, along with the Spiced Cherry Preserves from @murrayscheese. Y’all! That spiced cherry preserve might be my favorite! Cheers to gathering some friends with wine and cheese, and giving them a real Wow Factor! . . . . #cheesecake #wineandcheese #wowfactor #hostingideas

Divide into two portions. Dump onto plastic wrap and shape into either a log or ball! Serve with crackers! The BEST part about this recipe… you MUST make it ahead of time! So, a few days before your party, mix it up, and store in the fridge. You could even do this a couple of weeks ahead of time, and freeze until the day before. I’m going to say it again, and again… there is no reason you need to be running around on the day of your party, doing ALL THE THINGS! YOU choose your party menu, so choose recipes you can make ahead, or items you can pick up and assemble! . . . #appetizerrecipe #summerrecipes #summerentertaining #cheeseball
