I recently saw a Tik Tok of someone making Chicken Parmesan Sliders and knew I had to try to recreate them myself.  Upon watching the (short) video again, I realized they were BUFFALO Chicken Parmesan Sliders, and I was all in.  Anytime buffalo chicken is involved I’m game.  It’s one of my favorite things to eat and I love sampling different variations. These sliders are essentially little Chicken Parm sandwiches with a bit of heat from the buffalo sauce.  They are incredibly easy to make and are packed with flavor. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  Yes, you are going to make these on a baking sheet vs a 9×13 baking dish.  Line 18 chicken nuggets on the baking sheet and bake according to packaging instructions, until warmed through and crispy. Use a … Continue reading

Anyone else dreaming of warm weather and sunny days?  I have a case of the Winter Blues and am thinking back to a fun summer weekend where we made “bucket drinks” to enjoy on a pontoon ride.  If you aren’t familiar with “bucket drinks”, they are cocktails made in plastic buckets…. like a jumbo, fruity cocktail.  And they are delicious! We made Blue Hawaiian Tropical Bucket Cocktails.  As the name states, they are tropical… and full of booze and fruit juice and garnished with some fun fruit, candy, and glitter.  We actually made them multiple weekends in a row after finding the perfect combination of each ingredient, and let me tell you, I’m craving a pontoon ride, sunshine, and a jumbo bucket cocktail right about now 😊 The recipe can be found here. You will need 32 oz plastic beverage buckets.  You can find them on Amazon (click here) or perhaps a local party supply store.  Make sure to wash them before … Continue reading
