Whatever Ya Got Omelette
Rob Austin2020-04-08T15:13:58-05:00Nothing spectacular or revolutionary here, just a reminder that when you have some ham, a few eggs and some random vegetables you like, you have everything you need for breakfast!

Baked Bacon
Rob Austin2019-10-15T08:55:33-05:00I don't remember where I got this tip, but it's definitely my preferred way to make bacon. Line a cookie sheet with tinfoil, add a baking rack and lay the bacon on the rack in evenly spaced rows. Put the oven at 375 for 15-18 minutes and you'll end up with bacon that tastes a [...]
Pretzel Chicken Sandwich
Rob Austin2019-10-07T12:20:47-05:00Pretty simple stuff here- we love my pretzel chicken for dinner, so why not put it on a bun and make a sandwich for lunch? A nice bun, some lettuce and the chicken makes a nice, crispy lunch in your hand.

Mac and Cheese and Bacon
Rob Austin2019-09-29T13:30:34-05:00Nothing earth shattering here, just my recipe for my mac and cheese with a little bit of crispy bacon sprinkled on top for an extra bit of crunch. It was really tasty!
Cheddar, Egg and Bacon Sandwiches
Rob Austin2019-09-21T16:52:47-05:00Nothing too crazy here, just one of our favorite ways to eat breakfast as a sandwich. It's become so popular in our house that it's sometimes lunch or just a hearty snack. The ingredients are pretty simple- bacon, a couple of slices of cheddar and a fried egg on whatever bread you want. The key [...]

Homemade Hoagies
Rob Austin2019-01-20T14:48:45-06:00What do you get when you take sliced tavern ham, provolone, hard salami, mayo, put them all on a sub roll, toast it in the oven, then toss some fresh tomatoes, lettuce, Italian dressing, salt pepper and oregano after it comes out? This beautiful sandwich that would make your "fill-in-the-blank" sub chain eat it's own [...]
Italian Sausage Bread
Rob Austin2019-01-06T14:09:50-06:00One day while shopping at the local grocery store, a sale on my favorite Italian sausage caught my eye. Lots of recipes I make use Italian sausage so I knew I'd find a use for it somewhere. Eventually, they ended up in a new version of my pepperoni bread- this new thing I'm calling "Italian [...]

Rob’s Mess
Rob Austin2018-12-04T09:40:30-06:00This is a modified version of something we used to eat at the local breakfast diner. It was called "John's Mess" and had these same ingredients of eggs, hash browns and chopped pieces of ham, but added peppers and onions. It was as tasty as it was high in calories, which is why we stopped [...]

Pepperoni Grilled Cheese
Rob Austin2018-12-04T09:40:23-06:00Looking for a snack during the Thanksgiving week, I offered up the idea of some grilled cheese sandwiches. It was my Dad that asked for this version, which wouldn't have normally occurred to me. He'd seen some sandwich pepperoni and a bag of shredded mozzarella in the fridge earlier, and a new version of the [...]
French Toast
Rob Austin2018-12-04T09:40:38-06:00Truth be told, there isn't much you can do to improve French Toast. This recipe is straight out of The Joy of Cooking, with a little more vanilla and cinnamon than they have in the ingredients. Best of all, it's something my husband can make (he'd admit that cooking in the kitchen is not in [...]
