Fun fact: I always thought red velvet was just chocolate cake with red food coloring. Boy oh boy was I wrong. I also had never had a fried Oreo until I made them. Yes, I do live under a rock. But these are freaking amazing. The chocolate cookie gets super soft and cake like and…

Korean Barbeque Pork Belly Tacos with Kimchi Pickles and Crispy Chicken Chicharrónes
I honestly don’t even know where to begin with this. Kinda, sorta, speechless. First of all, tacos are the greatest things that man has ever created, don’t @ me.

Buttery Lobster Eggs Benedict with Crispy Pancetta and Fresh Arugula
If I were asked to imagine the most perfect brunch, this would be it (plus a beautiful man that fed it to me as I laid in a comfy robe on a comfier bed). The lobster is perfectly cooked, tender and buttery. The hollandaise is rich and lemony and the fresh arugula helps cut through…
Fried Chicken Biscuit Sliders with Spicy Honey Butter
Nas said it best, “Mmm, Fried chicken, fly vixen, give me heart disease but need you in my kitchen”. Piping hot fried chicken takes a swim in sweet and spicy buttery goodness then gets placed in between a flaky biscuit and topped with bread and butter pickles, can you taste it? This is the bomb…

Classic Double Cheeseburger
‘Murica, am I right? If you could eat America, it would be this burger. This meat stack is very simple yet so delicious. I’m talking, bun, mayo, beef, cheese, and bacon; dassit (okay, I threw some onion rings on there too but honestly if everything had onion rings on them we would have world peace). …
Overnight Yeast Waffles with Whipped Blueberry Orange Butter
These are the definition of perfect waffles. Crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. The butter adds a sweet pop of fruity fresh flavor that makes these waffles over the top delicious. Top them with warm maple syrup and a light dusting of powdered sugar for a jaw-dropping presentation. They freeze beautifully,…
Roasted Poblano Skillet Cornbread with Whipped Honey Butter
Ugh. Yes. I freaking love cornbread. This is sooo good. It is moist and flavorful and that honey butter?? Honey, that honey butter is ridonkulous. The subtle flavor from the bacon fat makes me happy.

Fried Lobster Mac and Cheese with Creamy Herb Dipping Sauce
The only way that mac and cheese could possibly get any better is by tossing it with buttery lobster meat then dropping it in piping hot oil until golden brown. Cheesy goodness with a yummy crisp breading dipped in some cool creamy sauce makes for one heavenly bite. Photography by Sophie Marie Creative Ingredients Mac…
