Tasty Tuesday: Eggrolls!

Eggrolls!

I love love love egg rolls and got the urge to try and make my very own the other day. 

Okay so it's been like 2 months since I made them but, um, someone might have forgotten it was almost Tuesday and they didn't have a recipe made up. Maybe. Kinda. So this one got pulled from the files and done up ;)

Guest Post w/ Erin Knightley + Giveaway (open INT)

Good morning lovelies! We've got a fun baking post for yall today from Erin Knightley which was inspired by her heroine Jane, who is a baker (love!) in her newest release A Taste for Scandal (loved even more!)!! 

Please join me in giving Erin a warm welcome to the blog! And don't forget to check out the giveaways down at the bottom :) One is linked over to Erin's Blog where she's giving away 36 SIGNED books by a ton of different authors :)

“Close your eyes, concentrate on the beauty of your creation. The tart lemon and the creamy meringue. The buttery crust and the unexpected infusion of . . . well, I don’t know what that other flavor is, but it is delicious.”

Jane sighed heavily, gave Richard another sarcastic look, then closed her eyes. She slowed her chewing, deciding not to waste the opportunity, and to do exactly as he suggested. She had to admit, it did seem to make the flavors that much more distinct. Of course, it also served to intensify her sensitivity to him. The flavors playing over her tongue blended with the smell of his skin, sending an unexpected ribbon of pleasure through her body.

At last she finished and allowed her eyes to flutter open. She gasped, the words poised on the tip of her tongue promptly fleeing when she realized how close he was. He was leaning toward her, regarding her intently. No longer teasing, his eyes seemed to darken to the color of twilight as he watched her.

Sounds good, doesn’t it? No, not the man – the pie. 

Tasty Tuesday: Cauliflower w/ Cheese Sauce

Alright so not the most photographic of Tasty Tuesday's but it was still rather yummy! :)

Recipes: Spinach Cheese Balls

These turned out to be really good. Almost like a biscuit with spinach and cheese all smooshed inside. Yum! And they were so simple to make.

I'd suggest whisking the egg, Italian seasoning and garlic salt together before adding in the cheese, bisquick and spinach. The mix is rather dry so that's the best way to make sure the seasoning is well mixed in. The mix looks way too dry at first but use your hands and keep smooshing it all together and it does work out nicely. I made mine a bit bigger than the 1" suggested and there is a bit of expansion as they cook. If you use 1" balls you should have around 30 once divided. They're pretty tasty and even better with a dipping sauce. I'll be making these again.
