Buffalo Chicken Pockets

March 4, 2022

A previous version of this post for buffalo chicken pockets and buffalo chicken rolls was published in January 2013. We took new photos, updated some of the content in the post, and combined the rolls and pockets. Additionally, we removed our buffalo chicken pizza post. Instead, check this recipe out for fried buffalo chicken pizza! I’ve been wanting to redo photos for these buffalo chicken pockets for some time. It…

Coconut Chicken Tenders: Cooking Through Cravings 2

January 23, 2019

We loved these chicken tenders so much, we had them for dinner four nights in a row! These were so delicious and deserve a spot on the table at your Super Bowl halftime viewing party. But what makes them so good? They’re crunchy, sweet, and savory. The coconut breading makes them crunchy. I love coconut-fried anything. Pineapple is in the marinade for the chicken and in the sweet chili sauce. It…

John’s Marinated Steak: Cooking Through Cravings

July 12, 2017

It’s summer. You know what that means? Beach, frozen margaritas (well, that’s all year round) and dining el fresco. However, we are unable to enjoy cooking food on the grill. Unless you have a terrace, city living is not the ideal place to live if you love to grill. Brian is a suburban boy and grew up with a large backyard and grill. So he’s missing out on grilling burgers…

John Legend’s Fried Chicken Wings: Cooking Through Cravings

January 25, 2017

Did anyone catch the game the other day? Good because you can fill me on what happened. If you haven’t guessed it, I am not a fan of football. But, I love “game day” food. I love a great dip, mozzarella stick and fried chicken wings. Although I’m not part of the 64% of Americans who watch football, I wanted to find a great appetizer to serve at my Super Bowl halftime…

John Legend’s Chili Recipe: Cooking Through Cravings

January 11, 2017

The next stop in our journey through Cravings, is John Legend’s chili recipe. His recipe is used with the Frito Pie Bar. We didn’t go all out with the Frito Bar, but we used a few of the toppings (cheesy guacamole, we have our eyes set on you!). If you haven’t been inspired by our other ventures into Cravings, then I hope we can sway you with this chili recipe. And all you’d…

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

December 14, 2016

I love peanut butter. There are a few flavors I could live without, and peanut butter is one of them. If I ever develop a peanut allergy, I think my world would collapse. These peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are perfect for all of my peanut butter lovers out there. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are one of my favorite lunches to date. One day, when I’m running a global company,…

Steak Bites: Cooking Through Cravings

December 7, 2016

I cannot believe it’s already December! Where did this year go? Now that the holidays are here, we all need to find some amazing recipes for our guests. I highly recommend these delicious steak bites! A little something you may not know about me, is the first Christmas I ever celebrated was with Brian. I grew up in a Muslim household. Although I haven’t been practicing since I was nine, there were still a…

Pumpkin Bisque

November 21, 2016

If you could whip up fall over the stove, it would be called Pumpkin Bisque. This is one of my favorite recipes to make in the fall. I recently made this for our Harry Potter Halloween Party last month and I plan to make it again for Thanksgiving. What’s great about this recipe is you can substitute the pumpkin purée for butternut squash. I realize that butternut squash may be the…

Chrissy’s Mac and Cheese Recipe: Cooking Through Cravings

November 16, 2016

After that election, I think most of us (and yes, most, since Hillary won the popular vote) are in the need of a drink and some comfort food. Chrissy Teigen’s mac and cheese recipe was the first recipe we tried. However, I was waiting for the perfect time to blog about it. I know when I’m having a stressful week, my favorite dinner is a form of therapy. This mac and cheese recipe…

Fried Fish Sandwiches: Cooking Through Cravings

October 19, 2016

I just celebrated my 27th birthday, I know I’m getting old. To celebrate we made some delicious fried fish sandwiches. Usually around my birthday I start dropping hints to my friends and family on what gift I would like. One of those gifts was Chrissy Teigen’s cookbook, Cravings. I woke up on the morning of my birthday only to be graced with Cravings from Brian. I flipped throw the cookbook that morning…

Our Six Favorite Slow Cooker Recipes

September 23, 2016

Fall has arrived! Well, this warm weather doesn’t feel like it’s arrived, BUT today is the first FULL DAY of Fall! So we put together our favorite slow cooker recipes. Did anyone feel a slight chill yesterday around 10:21am? Our Crock Pot is one of our favorite kitchen appliances. The amount of chili and beef stew could feed all of Manhattan. When the weather gets cooler, sometimes you just want to…

Ms. Jackson’s Sloppy Joes

September 7, 2016

I love going home to visit my mother. Although I do feel like I gain 5 pounds every time I visit, especially when eating her sloppy joes. I’m consistently being feed and asked, “Are you hungry?” even after I just ate. I never met someone who loved feeding people more than my mother, and that’s where I get my love of hosting and feeding people. I learned how to cook…

Baked Sweet Potato Fries

August 31, 2016

We’ve tried to make sweet potato fries for what seems like forever. Whether we fried or baked sweet potato fries, we couldn’t find the right seasoning, temperature, or recipe that worked in our flavor! They were either undercooked, burnt, or too salty. But how are there so many recipes out there and we can’t make it work? Maybe it’s…us? It’s been such an adventure, like my hush puppies. Fatima and I…

Hawaiian BBQ Fried Chicken Tacos

June 15, 2016

A few weeks ago, my cousin Lisa and her Grammy Award-winning fiancé, Peter, flew into Connecticut from Hawaii to do some wedding planning before the big day! We’re so excited to head out to Hawaii next year! Part of their trip included celebrating Nana’s ’92+2′ birthday and coming down to NYC to visit me at work! Not that they completely inspired this dish, but we were looking for a way to dress up…

A Steak and Cheese Sandwich

June 1, 2016

Not sure what draws me to a steak and cheese. Maybe it’s the steak layered with peppers, mushrooms, and tossed in cheese? Whatever I like about it, if I see steak and cheese on a menu at a restaurant, I will order it – unless it’s a Mexican restaurant, then all of my chips go towards the fajitas. My two favorite places for a great steak and cheese are The District…
