BACON & BROWN SUGAR PANCAKES WITH BACON-MAPLE SYRUP

BACON BACON BACON!!!!!!! Bring on the bacon, and lots of it. The amount of bacon for this recipe is TOTALLY UP TO YOU! Use as much or as little as you want, however I did provide you with a round-about estimate to get you started. You’d wanna crisp up at least 6 slices just to get you started — use a whole pack if you’re about that life(I'm about that life). Pancakes are one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast, and I almost always have to have bacon alongside for that salty kick. Combining the two isn’t anything new, but here’s a recipe for you anyway. It’s incredibly easy to do, and  very  delicious. If you’re a fan of “salty/sweet”, then you’ll enjoy the smokey bits of salty bacon nestled into every sweet bite of buttery pancake goodness. The method is super simple, the ingredients aren’t too difficult, and the whole thing comes together in no time. This recipe is dedicated to my girls in Houston, who I love dearly and can’t wait to see again. I love all three of yo

Homemade Beef Taco's

So I'm from Buffalo, and as the world know we had a snow storm that shut the city down for a week and a half. The only thing that kept me from getting cabin was these that i made. No  amount of snow was gonna stop me from making it happened. You already know how I feel about tacos. They’re my little pieces of heaven in a cruel and cold dog-eat-dog world. Tacos…are everything. These tacos are completely homemade. No kits. No seasoning packets. No boxed taco shells — which I’d still eat, but only in a pinch. There’s nothing better than frying your own corn tortillas for a taco, and this method I learned makes life so much easier. It takes just a few minutes to fry up the taco shells, and the crunch they provide is out of this world. These tacos are perfect — no orange grease running down your arm, perfectly seasoned, just hands down delicious. Once you make these, you won’t bother with the box kits…nothing beats the taste of homemade. Plus, you’ll feel so special knowing that

Chocolate Pancakes with Hazelnuts

Who says you can’t have chocolate for breakfast? Whoever said that, they lied. We’re adults, so we’re going to eat whatever the hell we want for breakfast..Tuuhh! These pancakes should fix any chocolate-for-breakfast craving you might be having. This recipe makes about six 5-inch pancakes, but you could totally make them smaller if you’d like, or just double the recipe to feed a larger group. If you decide to double the recipe, don’t add another egg — one egg is just fine for a 2 cup flour/milk ratio. You could really do whatever you’d like with these pancakes, as they take on any complimenting flavors usually paired with chocolate. You could use a different kind of chip if you want, or a different nut (or no nuts at all), and you could even top it with fresh berries or fruit. These pancakes are just sweet enough so that you don’t need gobs and gobs of syrup, but a little syrup really sets them off. I found myself snacking on one later in the day without syrup, and it was yummy
