Something different. ⠀ ⠀ Those of you who have been longtime readers of my blog, have read alllll about my battles with making pies (There have been actual TEARS. Lots of them! Though in all fairness I was all sorts of pregnant and hormonal at the time.)⠀ ⠀ So this one is for all you fabulous people who love holiday desserts but cannot deal with battling your pie crust.

  • I'll start with a question: what's your favorite thing to buy at Trader Joe's? Much like most people I know, I love me some @traderjoes (this is NOT sponsored). THey have so many things that I am seriously addicted to- those amazing frozen chocolate croissants that you lay out on the pan the night before and the next morning they triple in size leaving you with a perfectly flaky and buttery breakfast. And don't even get me started on the plantain chips, which rarely last more than a day around me!⠀ ⠀ But lately, their Everything But The Bagel seasoning blend has been popping up everywhere. She naturally I had to give it a try. I am seriously glad I did- because it has all the flavors I love! ⠀ ⠀ I made these Everything Pita Chips and I think you should too! They're are super easy to throw together for last minute guests and taste incredible alongside a bowl of hummus!⠀ ⠀ Everything Pita Chips, by Jessy Freimann⠀ ⠀ INGREDIENTS⠀ ⠀ Full size, store-bought pitas⠀ Olive oil cooking spray⠀ Trader Joe's Everything But The Bagel Seasoning⠀ ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS⠀ ⠀ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a pan with a silpat or parchment paper.⠀ Cut the pita in half and then cut each half into three wedges.⠀ Line the wedges up in a single layer on the pan.⠀ Spray a light layer of olive oil onto the tops of the pita chips.⠀ Sprinkle generously with Everything Bagel Seasoning.⠀ Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until they're crispy.⠀ Enjoy!⠀ ⠀ Print the recipe here: https://www.thelifejolie.com/everything-pita-chips-recipe/⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #easyrecipe #easyrecipes #snacking #pita
  • Our family has a few different uses for our marinara sauce and this is one of them. If you're looking for a cheap meal that's as delicious and as it is comforting, I've got you covered!⠀ ⠀ Now I know it kind of sounds weird. I think cabbage and beans are two things that aren't always at the top of everyone's list when planning their meals. And I get it. When I was a kid, if you had told me I was going to eat cabbage and beans, I'd turn my nose up at the mere thought. But if you had put a bowl of this stuff in front of me, I'd devour it and ask for more.⠀ ⠀ But this is crazy easy to make and tastes fantastic- and as mentioned it's super budget-friendly and goes a long way. You can even add shredded chicken for some extra protein!⠀ ⠀ Cabbage and Beans, by Rose Scuteri⠀ ⠀ INGREDIENTS⠀ ⠀ 1/2 large head of cabbage, cut into bite size chunks⠀ 1-2 14 oz. cans of Canellini or great northern beans, drained⠀ A few cups of marinara sauce (depending on how liquid-y you want it)⠀ ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS⠀ ⠀ Boil the cabbage for 5-10 minutes until it's softened.⠀ Drain it well.⠀ Combine in a large pot with beans and sauce.⠀ Cook until heated through.⠀ Enjoy with a sprinkle of Romano cheese and crushed red pepper.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #foodieflatlays @foodieflatlays #easyrecipe #familyrecipe #budgetmeals
  • I really feel like there aren't enough recipes out there designed for two people. I mean, I love leftovers as much as the next gal. But I'm a firm believer in working smarter, not harder.⠀ ⠀ Let's use Thanksgiving as an example. Who wants to wake up super early and spend all morning trying to battle with that bird 🦃 to get him into the oven when you can be sipping your coffee ☕️ on the couch in your PJ's and taking advantage of all those great online shopping deals while enjoying the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (this is my absolute favorite way to spend that morning, btw!).⠀ ⠀ This can easily be doubled or tripled if you're cooking for more people or to supplement alongside a small turkey (side note- do you guys battle for the dark meat the way we do?). And these are so quick and easy, you can throw them into the oven for a fantastic family meal any night of the week!⠀ ⠀ Here's the recipe:⠀ ⠀ Roast Turkey Thighs For Two by Patty Scuteri @pattysc00ts ⠀ ⠀ INGREDIENTS⠀ ⠀ Olive oil⠀ One onion, thinly sliced⠀ Two turkey thighs⠀ Salt⠀ Pepper⠀ Poultry seasoning⠀ 2 Tbsp. of butter⠀ ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS⠀ ⠀ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.⠀ Lightly drizzle a small amount of oil on the bottom of the pan.⠀ Spread the sliced onions into a layer on the bottom of the pan.⠀ Season the turkey thighs on each side with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning to taste (the poultry seasoning is strong so use a light hand with this).⠀ Cut each pat of butter into smaller cubes and place them on various spots all over the skin on each turkey thigh.⠀ Place the turkey thighs, skin side up, on top of the onions.⠀ Roast for 50 minutes-1 hour until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees.⠀ Remove them from the oven and let them rest in a foil tent for 10 minutes.⠀ Enjoy!⠀
  • How can you make macaroni and cheese better? Why, I'm glad you asked! By adding bacon and ranch seasoning, of course! Bacon Ranch Creamy Macaroni and Cheese is a fun twist on a classic homemade family favorite and is sure to become a main stay on your weeknight meal rotation and game day snack table! 🙌 ⠀ Now some people are in the melty cheese-pull camp when it comes to their mac and cheese. And while I'm always in full support of a good cheese pull, I have a different approach when it comes to my mac and cheese. ⠀ As a kid, we sometimes had this frozen mac and cheese that always came out so creamy with the most perfectly crispy corners. We used to fight for the corners because they were totally the best part! And since there are copious amounts of bacon involved in this recipe, it only seemed right to cover the top of this ooey, gooey mac and cheese with that perfectly crispy crust, kicked up a notch with crumbled bacon.⠀ ⠀ Here's the recipe:⠀ ⠀ Bacon Ranch Creamy Macaroni and Cheese⠀ by Jessy Freimann, The Life Jolie⠀ ⠀ INGREDIENTS⠀ ⠀ 10 slices of bacon, fried until crisp⠀ 3 1/2 Tbsp. butter⠀ 3 1/2 Tbsp. flour⠀ 2 1/2 cups whole milk⠀ 2 Tbsp. ranch seasoning⠀ 1 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided⠀ 1 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese⠀ 1 1/2 cups elbow macaroni, cooked as per package directions to al dente and drained⠀ 1/4 cup panko bread crumbs⠀ ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS⠀ ⠀ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.⠀ In a medium size pan, melt butter over medium heat.⠀ Add flour and whisk to make a roux.⠀ Let the roux cook for 1-2 minutes, whisking often.⠀ Add milk and ranch seasoning.⠀ Whisk the ingredients continuously until it thickens slightly, around 10 minutes.⠀ Add 1 cup of cheddar cheese and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and whisk until fully combined.⠀ Add the cheese mixture to the macaroni and crumble 6 pieces of the bacon in.⠀ Stir until well combined and pour into a 9" x 9" pan.⠀ Top with remaining cheese, panko bread crumbs and crumble on the remaining bacon.⠀ Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is crispy and the edges are bubbling.⠀ Serve immediately.⠀ ⠀ Print the recipe here: https://www.thelifejolie.com/bacon-ranch-creamy-macaroni-and-cheese
  • When you were a kid, did you ever eat Chicken Swiss? It's a classic dish involving boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a sauce made with cream of chicken soup, white wine, @RITZcrackers and Swiss cheese. It's super heavy and comforting: perfect for a chilly autumn night (by the way, as I type this, it's amid a week full of 80 degree weather in mid-September #finallysummer).⠀ ⠀ I was inspired to turn it into a killer dip to make all your ooey, gooey, cheesy game day dreams come true!⠀ ⠀ Some of you may remember how last year I teamed up with a group of fantastic bloggers to provide an array of delicious game day recipes and provide options for every foodie football fan out there! All the recipes look seriously amazing! You can see a list of all those recipes here: ⠀ ⠀ https://www.thelifejolie.com/chicken-swiss-dip/⠀ ⠀ And of course you've GOT to try this Hot Chicken Swiss Dip:⠀ ⠀ Ingredients:⠀ ⠀ 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken⠀ 1 10 oz. can cream of chicken soup⠀ 1/2 cup RITZ cracker crumbs, divided (FYI this is NOT sponsored, I just love them!)⠀ 1 1/2 cups grated Swiss cheese, divided⠀ 2 Tbsps. dry white wine⠀ 1/2 tsp. salt⠀ 1/4 tsp. pepper⠀ ⠀ Instructions:⠀ ⠀ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.⠀ ⠀ In a large mixing bowl, place the chicken, cream of chicken soup, 1/4 cup of RITZ cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup of the shredded Swiss cheese, wine, salt and pepper.⠀ ⠀ Stir until well combined.⠀ ⠀ Pour the chicken mixture into an oven safe baking container.⠀ ⠀ Top with the remaining 1/4 cup of RITZ cracker crumbs and 1 cup of grated Swiss cheese.⠀ ⠀ Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the dip is hot and bubbly.⠀ ⠀ Serve immediately with RITZ crackers or sliced baguette.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ . #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #snacking #appetizers #foodiefootballfans
  • I'll admit, I was a little skeptical about this recipe at first. Now don't get me wrong, I love me some cocktail wienies 🌭(or Lil' Smokies, if you'd rather) and I'm never going to turn down bacon 🥓! But when @scootsie11 and @lost_in_marinades brought these to our family's annual Christmas Eve gathering a few years ago, I wasn't so sure how these elements would work together.⠀ ⠀ Would the bacon be mushy? Would it be overly salty and greasy? Would the brown sugar overpower everything with sweetness? Well, my friends, I'm happy to report that my concerns were unfounded 🙌. These Bacon Brown Sugar Cocktail Wienies ended up being the hit of the evening, we were all literally fighting for seconds and thirds! 😋 ⠀ Now, years later, these are a go-to when we need a simple and savory appetizer that's sure to please. Do yourself and your friends a favor and make these right meow 😻! ⠀ ⠀ Here's the recipe:⠀ ⠀ Ingredients:⠀ ⠀ 1 14 oz. pkg. of cocktail wienies⠀ Half of a pkg. of bacon⠀ 1 cup of brown sugar⠀ ⠀ Instructions:⠀ ⠀ Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.⠀ ⠀ Cut your bacon into quarters.⠀ ⠀ Wrap each wienie with a quarter of a piece of bacon, secure with a tooth pick and sprinkle it all with brown sugar. ⠀ Bake for 50 minute to 1 hour, turning once half way through. When they're finished the sugar should be bubbly.⠀ ⠀ Remove them from their baking pan into your serving dish to help eliminate excess grease.⠀ ⠀ Enjoy!⠀ ⠀ Print the full recipes here: https://www.thelifejolie.com/bacon-brown-sugar-cocktail-wienies/⠀ . . . . . #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #baconlover #easyrecipe #easyrecipes #appetizers

These Baked Buffalo Chicken Sliders are one of those recipes. ⠀ ⠀ Seriously, you guys. Every time I make these, everyone goes crazy over them! They go fast and people are always fighting for seconds (we're also all pretty serious about food!).

  • There is something so classic about a good chicken dinner. Simple savory flavors, perhaps some veggies. Maybe even a little wine of some sort to add an extra zing (because wine is always a good idea!)!⠀ ⠀ For this one, I used leftover Champagne. Now I know some of you are probably shaking your head about this, and I get it. I often take the no-man-left-behind approach with Champagne as well. But sometimes you end up with leftovers and when that happens, this is a seriously delicious way to use it! It's also easy enough for a weeknight meal but feels fancy enough to serve for guests.⠀ ⠀ Here's what you'll need:⠀ ⠀ 3 pieces of bacon⠀ 1 Tbsp. salted butter⠀ 4 large chicken thighs ⠀ Salt and pepper to taste⠀ 1 large leek, cut down the middle length-wise, sliced into half moons and well cleaned ⠀ 8 oz. sliced mushrooms⠀ 2-3 cloves of garlic, smashed⠀ 3-4 sprigs of fresh thyme ⠀ 3/4 cup champagne or sparkling wine ⠀ 1-2 Tbsp. lemon juice⠀ Fresh parsley, chopped⠀ ⠀ Print the recipe here: https://www.thelifejolie.com/champagne-braised-chicken-thighs/⠀ . . . . #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #chickendinner #winnerwinnerchickendinner #easyrecipe #easyrecipes
  • Can I tell you guys something? This might be a little controversial, but I've got to be honest with you guys. Ok, here goes *takes a deep breath*⠀ ⠀ I'm not that into football.⠀ ⠀ I know, I know it's exciting and all that. And I'm totally a coach's daughter (seriously, my dad has literally coached everything and I was totally raised to appreciate all sports!). But as with most things, when it comes to football, I'm just here for the food. Sorry not sorry.⠀ ⠀ Which brings me to my next point. You should probably make these salami chips for your next football game, tailgate, Monday afteroon... you really don't need an excuse! ⠀ ⠀ These little guys are so perfectly crispy, they make the ultimate, salty game day snack!⠀ ⠀ INGREDIENTS⠀ ⠀ For the Salami Chips:⠀ ⠀ The Salami of your choice (I used hard salami because it was a bit smaller but Genoa would taste great too)⠀ ⠀ For the dipping sauce:⠀ ⠀ 1/4 cup of yellow mustard (I originally tried this with Dijon and it was WAY too spicy!)⠀ 2 Tbsp. of honey⠀ ⠀ INSTRUCTIONS⠀ ⠀ For the Salami Chips:⠀ ⠀ Preheat your oven to 300 degrees and line your pans with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up.⠀ Lay slices of salami in a single layer on your pans.⠀ Bake for 25-30 minutes.⠀ Allow the chips to cool and then drain them on a paper towel lined plate (they shed a lot of oil!).⠀ These last a week in the refrigerator in an air tight container or bag.⠀ For the dipping sauce:⠀ ⠀ Combine the yellow mustard and honey into a bowl.⠀ Whisk until well combined.⠀ These last a couple weeks in the refrigerator in an air tight container. ⠀ ⠀ Print the recipe here: https://www.thelifejolie.com/salami-chips/⠀ . . . . . #eeeeats #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #kitchenbowl #girlsonfood #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #forkfeed #hackmyplate #huffposttaste #f52 #BHGfood #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #gloobyfood #foodblogfeed #instafood #superfood #foodstagram #foodielife #foodiesofinstagram #mecookmeeat #instayum #foodporn #foodgram #foodlover #salami #appetizers #snacking #appetizer
