Chicken pot pie and chicken noodle soup are two classics that just warm the tummy and the soul on a chilly fall day (or on a warm fall day).  There’s something so comforting about them.  Not to mention, when you have a busy week, it’s always a bonus to make one meal and get to […]

I love the Tid-Bit Toas-Tite.  I also love pigs in a blanket.  There’s nothing quite like them.  A little bite of food, all wrapped up in a neat little package.  How can you go wrong? Ingredients Pre-packaged crescent rolls Mini sausages (we like the Hillshire Farms Beef Lit’l Smokies, even though they technically make little….cows […]

In high school, I loved making baklava.  I loved working with phyllo dough.  There was just something awesome about the thin sheets you had to carefully handle and at the same time, smother them with butter.  The glorious way they bake up and taste both light and rich at once (although the richness is probably […]

A huki huki huki huki hukilau!  That’s right.  Boy and I are headed to Hawaii for a little spring time R&R.  We’re going to play at the beach, do some snorkeling, eat pineapple, and maybe even go to a hukilau.  So in anticipation, we wanted to bring a little island lovin’ to the Toas-Tite. Ingredients […]

Ingredients 1/2 c. raw pizza dough, divided into two balls 1/2 diced tomato 2 Tbsp. shredded mozzarella Pepper to taste […]

The inspiration for this Toas-Tite came from SmokingMeatForums.com.  The good […]

Today we’re taking a little break from our Top Toas-Tite series to bring you a special Thanksgivingy Toas-Tite for those of you who still have a few leftovers in the fridge (like we do). Boy and I spent a lovely Thanksgiving with my brother and his new wife in their home, along with her wonderful […]

For our third Improv Toas-Tite, we had the words warm, seafood, and blue.  Blue is a tough one.  There aren’t really that many blue foods.  Sure, there are blueberries…blue corn chips…needless to say, strictly “blue” didn’t leave us that many options.  Toas-Tites are also naturally warm.  So that wasn’t terribly tricky.  But now seafood…we couldn’t […]
