THROWBACK October 2020

For this week's throwback, I decided to go into the archives and dig up some of the recipes I shared at this time last year! It's always so fun revisiting old recipes because I'm always writing or testing new things that I often forget some of the delicious things I've posted in the past. Let's take a look at 3 recipes from October of last year and what made them so wonderful <3 

JUICY LUCY

Watching the Food Network as often as I do, the Juicy Lucy was something I always wanted to make at home. Quite simply, it's a juicy burger FILLED with cheese as opposed to having a slice of cheese on top. It's the perfect little surprise inside of a perfectly cooked burger. We simply took BEYOND MEAT burgers and stuffed them with marble cheddar, reforming them around the cheese before searing them off. Absolutely delish and fun to make too!

CROCKPOT POTATO LEEK SOUP

I can't be the only one who gets excited about crockpot season?!? I love my crockpot. I love throwing a whole bunch of stuff into it, setting it, and coming back 6 hours later to a delicious meal that was so simple to put together. Take this potato leek soup for example! Everything you love about a classic potato leek soup, cooked in the crockpot. Tender potatoes, sweet leeks, creamy white beans, and a delicious broth that you'll want to slurp straight from the bowl.

HAPPY VEG

CLASSIC EGG SALAD

Everyone should have an easy egg salad recipe in their repertoire. For me, egg salad must always have a creamy dressing, nice sized chunks of tender egg, and a good amount of crispy veg like red onion and celery. A good egg salad recipe will take you places you know? It's perfect on crispy toast or eaten right out of the bowl, full of protein, and easy peasy to put together. Plus, it stays nice and fresh for a few days in the fridge which means easy brekkie / lunch for days to come.
