I was watching Martha the other day and she was talking about different ways to use Pillsbury crescents rolls. This meal should always be in the back of every one's mind...its just too easy. I had some leftover Pulled Pork from this recipe {HERE}, that was going to go bad soon and this was the perfect opportunity to use the rest of it. 

First you will want to roll out your crescents on a pan and take your rolling pin to them. 

Now, take your meat of choice and put a spoonful in the fat side of the roll. Add cheese and a sauce if you'd like. I of course added steak sauce, I'm obsessed! :)

Then ROLL 'EM UP! Martha put cheese on top of hers and brushed hers with an egg....so I did too. {I never see the point of cracking a whole egg for something like that, so I just use egg beaters! Way less wasteful!}

Cook them for however long the dough boy tells you to and then indulge my friend, indulge!

Another left over I did was making an easy lunch out of the pork and my favorite thin buns. 

Self explanatory....I just toasted the bun and heated up the meat. I'm obsessed with leftovers!! :) Enjoy!!

Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork

Recipe # 37

Have I ever told you I have the best friend in the world? Well, I do. She can usually be found in the "Jordan Approved/Healthy" section on my blog. Well, during one of our many chats, and me constantly discussing my new recipes I told her that I have several that I want to make, but they require dutch ovens. I wanted to invest in one, but couldn't quite justify it. Cut to a couple weeks later and I got a package. Not rare, having my own business I'm constantly getting things delivered to my house. But this one was unbelievably heavy {for its size} and I for sure thought that was weird! And this is what I found when I opened the box...

With a note attached that said "Happy Dutch-Ovening" :) We have a fun sense of humor! I couldn't wait to break in my new appliance!!

The deciding factor for this recipe was that I had left over Dr Pepper from {THIS RECIPE}. I know....my friend Keith would be shocked and upset. Nobody has left over Dr Pepper! Haha, but we are Diet drinkers around here! It looked like a big coke float! 

You just CAN'T go wrong with Pioneer Woman. You can find the recipe {HERE}. I didn't go with "spicy"...I was kind of scared, but I think next time I'm just gonna go for it! Very tasty and lots of leftovers :) 

Frenchy French Toast

Recipe #24

I love me some breakfast food! Especially when I don't have to wake up early in the morning to make it...aka breakfast for dinner!

During our Trip a la Northeast this summer we ventured to an awesome breakfast joint called Buddy's. Where the following pic was taken looking out onto The Naval Academy and some Annapolis scenery. Anyways, while at Buddy's I had some pretty stinkin good french toast. It was made from french bread. Who would of thought....

Fast forward to a couple weeks ago watching Pioneer Woman and Ree was making some of the very same french toast! It just had to make it ASAP! 

You can find the recipe {HERE}. I did not do the berry butter, I'll save that for when I make the other half of the loaf in the freezer! 

In her tutorial she used sourdough, but I went with french bread! Also, a little tip: *Make sure you cook these on low for awhile {instead of higher heat}. Since it is thicker it takes awhile to cook through as oppose to sandwich bread. We had a  few "raw" pieces in our bunch. 

Here is the final product! Can't wait to make this again with the berry butter!!

French Breakfast Puffs

Recipe #1

I've had these on my mind ever since I first flipped through Pioneer Woman's cookbook. They remind me of the "Cinnamon Puffs" we get at the Chinese Food places, except more like a muffin. They are super delicious and easier than I thought which is a nice added bonus. Another thing I love....everything was in my pantry all ready...SCORE! It is a wonderful breakfast/dessert muffin that everyone should try. Today. I didn't do anything differently, but PW's says it makes 12, and mine made 16. Ugh, I just HATE when that happens, it's the absolute worst :/ Well, enjoy!! Here is my very first recipe of the year! Yeah me :) 1 down, 299 more to go!

Pioneer Woman's French Breakfast Puffs

P.W.'s Chocolate Cake

Welp, I've done it again!! I have made the most wonderful and amazing chocolate cake ever. I can't be beat. Ok, Ok, Pioneer Woman has done it again. Tomato, tomaato, right? It has been almost a year since my "unofficial" new year's rez {you can read about it here} and it has been so much fun! I have learned a lot about my taste/preference for certain flavors and this cake has really just pinned it! Now, Don't hit me when you hear this, but I'm not a huge chocolate cake fan....craziness, I know. I'm also really picky on the moistness of cake. Yadda Yadda, I could go on forever.... Well, this sheet cake is moist and the icing is perfection {shockingly another thing I'm super picky about!}.

For you Odessan's it is similar to Rosa's chocolate cake {but thinner} or Mexican Hot Cake.

You can find Ree's recipe tutorial here.

I had to bring dessert to a dinner with Jake's fam and mom was in town. I was making it and mom kept saying "I'll be in to help in a minute". Before she knew it I was mixing the icing. :) To her defense....this cake took NO TIME at all.... you can't go wrong with a 20 minute bake time!!

Cake was a huge hit and it was so easy....a huge recommendation if you are planning to feed a lot of people!

Pioneer Woman"s Breakfast Burritos

Attention ALL!! You have to try Pioneer Woman's Breakfast Burritos!! They are wonderful. Nothing fancy and totally easy, and my absolute favorite: GREAT for leftovers!! If you don't have PW's cookbook, then go to her web page: thepioneerwoman.com. Also, here is the direct link for her Breakfast Burrito recipe. 

Here is the recipe in her book. Highly recommended! 

The recipe called for sausage, but I prefer bacon so I substituted them. Hil and Mo thought that was the end of the world so since the first time I have only made it with sausage (which, is actually a ton easier!!). 

It cooks in the skillet and you just mix in the eggs a viola! Its also extremely easy to add your own ingredients, like chives, veggies, cayenne or something!

Final product! I'm addicted!!
