Southwest Chicken Burger
Southwest Chicken Burger Watch this recipe – You Tube Pin this recipe – Pinterest There is no denying my love for Mexican food! I could probably eat tacos every single day and never grow tired of them. My family does not share this love of mine, so I don’t make Mexican food at home very often. Telling your kids to eat their veggies is one thing, but asking them to finish their tacos and guac is probably frowned upon in today’s society. Everyone is typically working on being healthy! For not being a huge fan of Mexican food, my husband sure did enjoy this burger. He even asked me if…

Broccoli & Hash Brown Casserole
Broccoli & Hash Brown Casserole When I first started Burlap Kitchen I had no idea what I was doing. I still don’t, but I have learned a lot since starting this blog back in early 2014. I still have a long way to go, but I’m a firm believer in that old saying, “fake it till you make it!” So, until I make it, I will keep watering my dream until I blossom into the creative blogger I dream of being. As I sit here thinking about some of the recipe photos I’ve posted in the past I have to chuckle. Mostly because if I don’t, I’d probably cry from…

You are going to love how simple they are to make. I have been munching on these all week and I’m still not over them. Of course, you know I have been crushing on all kinds of tacos this month.

Honey battered Chicken Tacos
Honey Battered Chicken Tacos Hola! Tomorrow is Cinco De Mayo so what better month to celebrate tacos then May?! I’m starting the month off with these Honey battered Chicken Tacos. I know it sounds weird, but trust me, they’re delicious! This recipe actually came from my mom, I too, thought it sounded a little strange until I tried them. One bite had me thinking I was Ricky Martin and Livin’ La Vida Loca. Except my lips were more of an avocado green than a devil red. Reality did eventually set in. I realized that I wasn’t Ricky Martin and moving my hips that way should be outlawed… At least in my…

Chili Cheese Dog Stuffed Biscuits
April, a month filled with baseball and lots of biscuit dough! Baseball season has officially started in the Dillman household. If you are like me, and also have kids starting baseball, you know that making fancy suppers on ball nights is next to impossible. Because of this, I am focusing the entire month of April on biscuit dough recipes starting with these Chili Cheese Dog Stuffed Biscuits. I need meals I know my family will eat and are a quick clean up so we can pack up and head to the ballfield! Can I be real for a minute or two? I know this is a way off topic and has nothing to do with…

Make ahead Breakfast Burritos
Make ahead Breakfast Burritos Keeping some of these easy Make ahead Breakfast Burritos on hand will make your mornings extra enjoyable. I love knowing that I only have one mess to clean up from breakfast, for the ENTIRE week! And the mess is really not that bad. Usually, it consists of 1 electric skillet, a cutting board, a bowl, and of course, a few utensils. See, easy peasy, not even enough to fully load the dishwasher 😉 Paper plates also help to keep the mess minimal. Now, I know I said these are Make ahead Breakfast Burritos, and they are, but my mom also had another great idea. She suggested…

BBQ Ranch Hamburger Boats
// BBQ Ranch Hamburger Boats I often get asked the question,” how do you come up with your recipes? what inspires you?” Today I am going to give you a small glimpse of how my mind works. It won’t be too scary, I promise. =p If you remember, two weeks ago, I posted about inheriting my Nana’s cookbooks and recipe cards ( see Orange Chiffon cake, a recipe from 1948). In with her cookbooks was an old family circle magazine from the year 1966. While I was flipping through the pages, I remembered my Pap telling me that he was having hamburger boats a few nights back. With hamburger boats in…

Bacon Cheeseburger Quesadilla’s
Bacon cheeseburgers have always been one of my favorites; it’s a classic. I mean seriously, who doesn’t enjoy a big juicy bacon cheeseburger with grease dripping down to your elbows? I wanted to find a way to put all these flavors into one mouthwatering appetizer, and that is exactly what I did! Another reason why I love these bacon cheeseburger quesadillas, is that after cooked, they can be stored in the freezer. Simply cook the quessadillas by following my recipe below. Once they have cooled, place in a freezer bag and store in the freezer. Next time the kiddos or husband gets hungry just pull a few out, place…

Uncle Chuck’s Hash Brown Casserole
// Today I am sharing with you my brother’s recipe for hash brown casserole. He can cook, too! It kinda runs in the family. Although, he know’s I am the BETTER cook! (haha) But honestly my brother is such a great guy; I can always count on him. I always tell people he is my toughest critic; mainly because he is honest… brutally honest. If I want to know the truth about one of my recipes I just make it for him. Do you want to know how I have coded how good a recipe is when letting him taste it? Well… I am going to tell you anyway =p…
