Chive Cheese Cornbread


We recently purchased a smoker and it's been real fun learning to use it.  We were doing some 3-2-1 St. Louis ribs over the weekend and I thought some cornbread and baked beans would be the perfect sides. 

 

Since my chives are going crazy right now, I searched for a recipe that used them and found this one on the Taste of Home website.


I used whole milk because it's what we always have on hand and I used a 7.5 ounce bag of Sargento Shredded 4 State Cheddar Cheese. I also added a pinch of salt as some of the other reviewers on the site suggested.


I got zero progress pictures because I was also tending the ribs. I couldn't wait until dinner to give it a try so I had a piece (or two, don't judge) sitting out on the deck. This was great alongside the ribs and would also be delicious as a side to chili. 


If you don't have fresh chives and like some heat, diced jalapenos would be awesome.  You could also use dried chives, about 1 tablespoon. I'll be sharing the rib recipe soon, those I did get progress pics but no finished pictures because they disappeared so fast!

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
