Cooking up artistically delicious family-friendly dishes from my Kudos Kitchen to yours!
I love a good Monte Cristo sandwich and always have. It is because of that love I’ve come up with this new twist on the classic sandwich.
These delectable little Monte Cristo appetizers will be a surefire hit with your family and friends whenever you serve them! They’re crunchy, sweet, savory, and completely addicting!
This recipe for Copycat Payday Candy Bars is a redo from the original post I shared back in 2011. It’s hard to believe it’s been 7 years since I first shared this recipe. Where does the time go?
While a lot has changed in the past 7 years, this recipe hasn’t. After all, why mess with perfection?
When I come up with recipe ideas, more times than not it’s because it’s something I have a taste for, or because it’s something I know I’d enjoy eating. These Peanut Butter & Jelly Chocolate Covered Football Crackers are no exception.
I had to literally force myself from chomping on all of them immediately after taking these photos, so then I sent the remaining footballs with my husband to share at his workplace and get them out of the house!
This is a sangria I served at a recent family game night. While this is the first sangria I’ve ever made (don’t ask me what took me so long), it certainly won’t be the last!
When I asked my mom and sister if they wanted to help me build a gingerbread house this year for Christmas, I don’t think any of us knew exactly what we were letting ourselves in for.
With no plan in mind except for a few inspirational photos we found on the internet, we set off on our great gingerbread house expedition.
If you’ve been on a potato free diet (been there, done that), then close your eyes and pretend these are mushrooms instead. LOL. Just kidding.
The truth of the matter is, these Roasted Baby Potatoes with Garlic & Fresh Herbs will make you rethink that whole doing without potatoes thing…and rightly so!
The reason I call this a “copycat” salad is that it mimics my favorite bagged salad which I purchase in the produce section of the market.
However, if I’m totally honest here (and why wouldn’t I be?), my Kudos Kitchen version is even better than that bagged version because I’ve added dried cranberries to the mix, and I’ve also added apple cider (you can use apple juice if needed) to thin the dressing, and for a little touch of extra sweetness.
Surprise!! Not only are these Holly Berry Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes delicious and easy to make, but they also have a surprise center (yes, you may call it a gift) that adds a fun and unexpected touch, that everyone will enjoy!
If you have time to add these Christmas Cream Cheese Sprinkle Cookies to your holiday baking list, I highly recommend doing so. They’re super simple to make and kids will have fun rolling them in the sprinkles before baking.
The first time I’d had a pumpkin spice martini was on vacation while we were spending a little time at the Chumash Casino in Santa Ynez, California.
After my initial sip, I knew it was something I wanted to recreate upon returning home. The result is my version of a Pumpkin Spice Martini – Kudos Kitchen Style…and it’s a good one. I hope you’re ready! And, as always, please drink responsibly and NEVER drink and drive.
