We know that protein shakes aren’t something people necessarily get excited about, but that’s only because they typically taste like chalk and feel like powdered chalk going down your throat. Please put your past protein shake experience aside and bear with us, because we promise this one will be worth it. You see, not all protein powders are created equal; but no one has the time or money to taste test them all....
What kind of meat do you use for carne asada? Carne asada is traditionally made using skirt steak or flank steak. The two cuts are very similar and can be used interchangeably. The two meat cuts do have a few differences. Flank steak is a more lean option and has a great, intense meaty flavor. Skirt steak also has an intense meaty flavor but does have more tough fibers than flank steak....
This recipe has been passed down in my German family for generations. Our secret addition includes a squeeze of lime in the breading. The breading is very simple, but creates a wonderfully crunch shell around the meat. Schnitzel is best enjoyed fresh and hot from the pan. Recipe Origins Types of Schnitzels One of the most common types of schnitzel is the “Wiener Schnitzel,” which is made from veal. This word comes from the German word “Wien,” which means “Vienna,” as this dish is said to have originated in the Austrian capital....

I love it so much I’m willing to go all Dr. Seuss on you. I have a separate love affair with pizza. I may or not may be an eternal 5 year-old at heart....
We’ve all experienced dry, crumbly, sub-par coffee cake. It is usually store-bought and always served at a women’s luncheon of some sort. We make it a rule to avoid the coffee cake at such events because we have simply become so spoiled with this homemade coffee cake. It is super moist, and thick, and decadent….everything a coffee cake should be. The batter is quite thick, much thicker than a cake mix so don’t be surprised by that....

I always use (and highly recommend) choice grade beef. In my area it costs $1-$2 more per pound, but it is money well spent. There are three different grades of beef: select, choice, and prime. You’ve probably heard of prime grade beef, but you may not be as familiar with select and choice. Select is your cheapest grade of beef. Even within the grade there is a difference between the lower end and the higher end....
I used to hate cabbage until I tried fried cabbage a few years ago and I really enjoy it now. I made it last weekend for a St.Paddy’s day potluck and there were no leftovers, which was awesome! It goes really well with corned beef, pot roast, grilled chicken and even pork chops. Now, fried cabbage can be made in various ways but my favorite way involves pan frying it with bacon and onions....

Was anyone else totally excited when they announced the new cookie dough Oreo? We looked in every store for a few weeks until finally finding them. Turns out they weren’t so much cookie dough Oreos as they were some strange caramel-eque flavor. They were good, they just didn’t taste like cookie dough sandwiched between two Oreo cookies. We did what we do best, and took matters into our own hands and made the cookie we so craved....
