Pan Seared Scallops

I love scallops. You can wrap them in bacon or top them with crab meat and cheddar cheese, either way, I'm feasting. However, scallops are one of those foods I've always been too scared to cook myself. That was until my mom gave me my new favorite cookbook, "Cravings" by Chrissy Teigen.

Greek Inspired Turkey Burgers

If you were to tell me two years ago that I would LOVE turkey burgers, I would probably slap you in the face. For some reason, I had a fear of cooking with turkey meat. It was so foreign to me.

Caprese Stuffed Chicken

Chicken has to be my least favorite protein to cook with. Sometimes I struggle cooking it all the way through and flavoring it well. One day, after about an hour of mindless Pinteresting, I came across a recipe for Caprese Chicken.

Raisin Bread French Toast

French toast is the perfect sweet tweet for breakfast. If you're like me, you're too impatient to wait for your bread to get a little stale. Follow this recipe to get a french toast that isn't soggy.

Grandmama's Salmon Croquettes

Some of my favorite memories growing up were visiting my grandparents in Kansas and when they come visit my parents and me in Maryland. Either way, I knew that when I got to see Grandmama, and she would make salmon croquettes.

Sorry Bobby: Baked Tilapia with Lemon Butter Sauce

Bobby Flay's Grilled Tilapia with Lemon Butter, Capers and Orzo is one of my favorite ways to eat tilapia. While Bobby is host of "Boy Meets Grill," I am a girl that's not as chill with a grill. I took Bobby's recipe and baked the tilapia instead of grilling it.
