Creatively delicious recipes
One of my favorite things about Spring in Florida is having cookouts. Lately, my friends and I have been having at least one cookout a week! We all get together and bring a dish to share.
If you’ve been here for awhile, you know how much I love making stuffed burgers! Well, I’ve got a new creation to share with you: Buffalo & Blue Cheese Stuffed Turkey Burgers!

I’m back with another edition of my Healthy Packed Lunch series. I love lunch ideas that include inexpensive ingredients that will last for about 5 lunches. Buying packages of lunch meat and cheese are great because there are so many things you can do with them, including these Turkey and Blue Cheese Pinwheels.

I love cooking with blue cheese. It goes so well with bacon! This Thanksgiving, mix things up with an updated mashed potato recipe. These Blue Cheese & Bacon Mashed Potatoes have all the creaminess you love with the savory taste of blue cheese and bacon.

I don’t get pizza very often, but when I do, I don’t go to the big chains. I love finding local, specialty places! One of my favorite pizzas to get is Buffalo Chicken (if you’ve read my blog at all, I’m sure you could have guessed that!). I was making pizza last night and decided to try my own version.
Most Buffalo Chicken pizza that I’ve had is made with breaded chicken. It tastes amazing, but I wanted to make a (slightly) healthier version. I used the idea behind the chicken in my Buffalo Chicken Texas Toast, added some blue cheese, and viola! Delicious.
Here’s the recipe:
1 (16 oz) package of pizza dough
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup buffalo sauce
1 tbsp butter
1/4 cup blue cheese
1. Roll out the pizza dough. I grilled my crust first at 400 for 3-5 minutes on each side. If you would rather, bake in the oven at 400 for 5 minutes. Set crust aside.
2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet on high.
3. Add the chicken to the skillet and brown for 2 minutes on each side.
4. Lower the heat to medium high and add buffalo sauce and butter.
5. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Top the crust with sauce and about 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.
7. Add chicken to pizza and drizzle with buffalo sauce.
8. Add the remainder of the mozzarella cheese.
9. Bake pizza for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted.
10. Top with blue cheese.

I realized when I was going to the store to get the ingredients for this recipe that I don’t have a lot of recipes that don’t use chicken. When I lived on my own, I survived off chicken because it was cheaper. I still feel like I have more creative ideas for chicken meals, but I’m trying to get more creative with beef and pork.
I found this recipe on Pinterest and decided to see what I could do with it. I love caramelized onions with parmesan cheese but had never thought of using blue cheese! This dish definitely isnt healthy but it sure is good!
Because the sauce has so much flavor and kind of over-powers the meat, you don’t need to go pricy with your steak. I got a New York Strip and it worked great.
