Black Bean Sliders

black bean burger recipe

I am not really sure why I am so into small burgers, but I am.  I love a slider.  Before I had to cook for a family of 5, I used to survive on Morningstar Farms Black Bean Burgers.  I ate them every day it seemed.  I still love them and crave them every now and again.  One night I got the ingenious idea to not only make my own version, but to make them mini!  I was so proud of myself.  I am a huge nerd, I know. I tend to make a lot of Mexican food at my house.  Everyone in my house likes … [Read more...]

Roast Pork Sandwiches

Yesterday, I was telling you about my "Welcome Fall" dinner.  Today I will share with you the star of the show.  This roast pork sandwich is one of my husband's favorite meals.  I have been making this for years and we never tire of it.  Sometimes, I make a homemade thyme and Parmesan cheese roll to go with it, but it also great on a Kaiser roll or any roll that you have around.  This roast pork takes 2 days to make, but very little effort on either day.  I love to brine and brine pretty … [Read more...]

Tandoori Chicken Burgers

When the weather is 100+ degrees, the last thing that I feel like doing is cooking.  Sometimes I don't even feel like eating.  But when I do cook, I want something like this.  Easy to make, super fast, and pretty darn tasty if I do say so myself.  I have seen a lot of tandoori recipes around lately in the food magazines and the blogs, and I took about 3 or 4 different recipes and came up with this one.  I have to admit that I was a bit surprised at the reaction at my dinner table when I … [Read more...]

Baked with Love Turkey Sandwich

When Wes and I were in Charleston, eating our way through town, our children were at my mother-in-law's house in Southport, NC.  You could say that Southport is a cute, quaint, southern town.  I had not been there in 3 years and Southport has grown.  I had a few very delicious meals during our short visit there.  But the one that I keep thinking about (you know how I like to obsess over good meals) is the lunch that I had at a little place called Baked with Love.  I had a turkey sandwich … [Read more...]

Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches

You know when you come home from a trip, you just crave a home cooked meal.  After eating out for a week, I just felt gross and wanted something comforting and something that came out of my kitchen.  The problem is that I just didn't feel like cooking.  I spent the day at Costco and the grocery store filling my house again with food, but had zero motivation to make something that required more than 5 minutes of work.  So this is what I came up with.  I saw something similar on Martha … [Read more...]
