Cheesy Garlic Herb Dinner Rolls – Super easy dinner roll recipe ready in less than 90 minutes! Perfect for the holidays!

My favorite part of any meal is the bread! Whether it is the holidays or just a regular Tuesday evening, I always look forward to having some nice, warm bread with butter on top. Unfortunately, making homemade bread or dinner rolls was always a daunting process that I thought would be an all day affair letting the bread rise, kneading, and rising some more. I was shocked to find out that you could have dinner rolls on the table in just 90 minutes and that the process could be so easy!

The key to the speed and ease of this dinner roll recipe? Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Yeast! You can “bake it yourself” because it doesn’t get any better than homemade baked goods! Fleischmann’s® has 150 years of experience in helping home bakers make quality, yeast recipes to share with friends and family.

Now Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Yeast is super easy to use. One really important thing to note is that the water used is between 120˚F – 130˚F, which should be about lukewarm, not hot. Always use a thermometer to check. If the water is too hot, it will kill the yeast and your recipe will not rise correctly.

To jazz up this recipe, I added some fresh herbs and parmesan to the top. I didn’t want to overwhelm the rolls with too much because I wanted the flavor of the bread itself to shine through, but the herbs added a nice, subtle flavor while the parmesan brought in a bit of salt and crunch to the top. These are both simple additions that just take the recipe to the next level.

Apart from having to check the temperature of the water, working with yeast is really easy. The dough must have a rise time of 10 minutes or less and will need to be kneaded but if you have a stand mixer, that can be a big help. Additionally, make sure that the yeast isn’t expired. That can also cause the dough not to rise.

Cheesy Garlic Herb Dinner Rolls - Super easy dinner roll recipe ready in less than 90 minutes! Perfect for the holidays!

Prep Time 40 minutes

Fondant Potatoes and Parmesan Herb Palmiers

by Leave a Comment

This post is sponsored by McCormick® but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

With the holiday season right around the corner, I have been trying to think of creative spins on classic dishes to serve to guests.  This year, I wanted to focus on my French roots and serve a French food spin on the holidays! Whether it is Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other upcoming holiday, you can’t go wrong with potatoes and an appetizer!

First up, my holiday appetizer! Now I love cooking with puff pastry, it is such a simple way to make a dish elegant without much work, especially if you use store-bought puff pastry.  One of my favorite uses of it is palmiers.  Usually, these are a sweet treat made with puff pastry, butter, and sugar but they can also be made savory very easily.

I was inspired by some of McCormick®‘s spices that I saw at my local Meijer to make the filling for these palmiers herby! I picked up McCormick® rosemary leaves, garlic powder, thyme, and black pepper as I knew I could combine those not just for my palmiers but also in my potatoes! They were easy to find right in the spices aisle.

McCormick® is my go-to brand for extracts, herbs and spices, and gravy not just during the holiday season but year-round.  They have a great variety of different products that never fail to impress!

For my savory palmiers, I wanted to combine my McCormick® spices and herbs with parmesan and roasted garlic to create a French appetizer that would be memorable and special for my guests to experience.  The recipe is super easy to make and filled with so much flavor!

Yield: 15 servings

For my French side dish, I wanted to make a potato dish that would blow my guests away! Thus, I ended up making pommes fondant (or fondant potatoes) and they might just be the best potatoes ever.  With a crisp outside and an inside that melts in your mouth, it’s hard not to find these potatoes addicting! Your guests will devour these potatoes SO quickly!

To make these potatoes, you cook them in butter and spices on the stove-top before pouring in vegetable broth and transferring them to the oven to cook and absorb the liquid up.  The spice blend I went with for these potatoes is very similar to the palmiers so that they pair nicely together including McCormick® Rosemary Leaves, Thyme Leaves, and Garlic Powder.

I know that I can’t wait to bring both of these dishes to all of the holiday parties coming up! To get the McCormick® spices that you need to make these recipes, make sure to head to your local Meijer!

Crispiest Baked Chicken Tenders

Crispiest Baked Chicken Tenders

Crispiest Baked Chicken Tenders – This is the ultimate way to make the crispiest chicken tenders at home! No frying necessary and made with just a few ingredients!

Like most households, chicken tenders are a favorite here. Something about extra crispy chicken is always delicious, and my chicken tenders are a bit of a legend because of how crispy I can get them without having to deep fry them!

Yes, you heard me right.  No deep frying necessary and they actually turn out super crispy! My secret? Argo® Corn Starch! Argo® Corn Starch is such a versatile ingredient that I use in everything from sauces and gravy to stir-frys to coatings.  There have been so many Mildly Meandering recipes over the years that use it! Argo® Corn Starch is the main reason why the coating on these chicken tenders is so light and fluffy, yet crispy.  It helps seal the juices into the chicken so that when you bite into a chicken tender, it’s juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside.  It is also gluten free! They have been the leading corn starch brand with over 100 years of quality and trust that has been built over multiple generations.

Now, these chicken tenders are best eaten immediately after they are made so that their crispiness is at its peak, but if you do end up with leftovers, I suggest drizzling a little oil on them and putting them back in the oven for a few minutes to crisp back up.

Another important thing to remember is that these are amazing for dipping in a good sauce! Some of my favorites to go with these chicken tenders includes:

  • Sriracha mayo
  • Honey mustard
  • Barbecue sauce
  • Ranch
  • Buffalo sauce

I can promise, these are going to be the best chicken tenders (and the crispiest!) that you have ever made at home.  Traditionally, you would use 100% all-purpose flour but by using 50% Argo® Corn Starch and 50% all-purpose flour. The coating ends up so much crispier! Make sure to check out Argo’s website for more recipes using their corn starch by clicking HERE.

English Singing Hinnies (Griddle Scones)

English Singing Hinnies (Griddle Scones) – A delicious breakfast treat! A scone-like dough grilled on a skillet until golden brown and crispy!

English Singing Hinnies

English Singing Hinnies (Griddle Scones)

There is nothing I love more than having breakfast for dinner.  I am not someone who ever makes homemade breakfast foods in the morning because I would much rather be asleep or relaxing than working in the kitchen.  But if it’s 5 PM, than I am totally on board to make breakfast food.

For this round of making breakfast for dinner, I wanted to give an English recipe a try with an intriguing name – singing hinnies.  Yup.  That’s the name.  It’s kind of amazing.  What I was most excited about was the fact that they are basically a grilled scone.  Made with basically the same list of ingredients as any other scone recipe and the same method of preparing them, they were bound to be amazing. 

The only addition to them that might be different from other scone recipes is there is a bit of lemon zest and dried fruit.  You can use whichever dried fruit you prefer such as raisins, dried cherries, dried cranberries, sultanas, etc but I went with a dried currant (available at most major grocery stores in America or online) because they seem to fit with just about any British recipe and I like how small they are, they add a great texture.

Singing Hinny

Common questions about making singing hinnies

What is the difference between lard and butter?

The difference between lard and butter is that lard is made from pig fat and butter is a dairy product.

What is the difference between welsh cakes and singing hinnies?

Both have very similar ingredients and methods of making them but welsh cakes have some kind of sweetener such as honey in the dough while singing hinnies get their sweetness just from the dried fruit.

How can I serve a singing hinny?

You can serve a singing hinny topped with butter, honey, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

English Singing Hinnies (Griddle Scones) - A delicious breakfast treat! A scone-like dough grilled on a skillet until golden brown and crispy.

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 4 oz unsalted butter (1 stick, cold)
  • 4 oz lard (or a second stick of unsalted butter, cold)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
  • 1 cup dried raisins or currants
  • 4-6 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Add in butter and lard and cut it into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or two knives. Alternatively, combine in a food processor and pulse until the butter and dry ingredients have turned into a sandy consistency.
  2. Add in lemon zest and dried fruit. Slowly add in milk until the dough comes together. If you are struggling to get your dough to come together, toss in into a stand mixer and mix on low until it comes together.
  3. Roll your dough out onto a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/4"-1/3" thick. Cut it into circles using a 2" circular cutter or using a small bowl and a sharp knife to cut around the bowl.
  4. Bring a skillet or griddle up to medium heat. Smear a bit of butter on both sides of the singing hinnies and then place them on the skillet for about 4-5 minutes, depending on how hot the skillet gets. Once the bottom is golden, flip it over and continue to cook for another 4-5 minutes or until that side is also golden.
  5. Serve hot with a bit of butter or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Saffron Rice

Saffron Rice – A quick and easy side dish filled with flavor. Made with just four simple ingredients, this rice is perfect served with everything from Indian to Mexican food.

Saffron Rice

It’s Freaky Friday time again! This time, it is our Spring Edition and I am so excited to share this saffron rice recipe from Healing Tomato with you guys! Freaky Friday is where a bunch of bloggers are all assigned different blogs and we make a recipe from their site to share! None of us know who is assigned to our site so it ends up a fun surprise and a great way to get to know each other and our sites better! It is organized by Michaela from An Affair from the Heart and it’s so fun!

So I’ve been in groups with Rini for many years now and she has some fantastic vegan and vegetarian recipes that I have been wanting to try out! We both have a background in the technology industry (both of us were sys admins!) and she started her site as a creative outlet and the name of the site comes from her love of tomatoes.  Some of the other ones I considered whipping up included her caprese tart, watermelon lassi, and palak makhani.

It was a really tough choice picking which recipe to make since there were quite a few that I was interested in but I ended up deciding on her saffron rice.  I grew up eating that bag of neon yellow spanish saffron rice growing up that was chocked full of salty deliciousness so when I realized you could make that same dish right at home with ingredients that are probably already in your pantry, I was on board!

Now I made a few changes to Rini’s recipe to make it a bit my own and simplified as her’s calls for a few extra spices such as cardamom so if you want to jazz it up even more, go check out her version by clicking here! Part of why I cut it down a bit was because I live in a rural enough area that it was difficult to even find saffron up here, let alone cardamom pods and cloves that aren’t already ground but I thought it tasted fantastic and I was super happy with it!

Can’t get enough of this saffron rice recipe? Try these other recipes!

  • Mango Lassi – Fresh mango, yogurt, milk, and cardamom blended together into a delicious drink!
  • Chicken Tempura – Light and crispy breaded chicken deep fried until golden brown!
  • Filipino Carioca – Fried sticky rice balls with a coconut caramel sauce that are addicting!
  • Teriyaki Chicken – This authentic Japanese recipe only takes 20 minutes to make! All you need is 5 simple ingredients and it’s way cheaper than getting it at a restaurant!

Challah Bread

by 1 Comment

Challah Bread – A beautiful and impressive bread made with just 6 simple ingredients. This classic Jewish bread is great for sandwiches, french toast, and more!

Challah Bread

Challah Bread

Can I just say how much I love a loaf of homemade bread? Something about the pride of having it actually come out correctly and knowing that you put all that time and love into it makes it so much better.  After making a few different bread recipes the past few weeks (like my matcha milk bread), I was really dying to give making challah a try and it turned out great!

I think my favorite part about this bread was the beautiful braid.  I was pretty worried that it was going to be crazy difficult but it really wasn’t.  Included are images of the braiding process but as long as you can keep straight that you start with the furthest right strands every time and then go over two strands, under the third strand, and over the next two, then you will be fine! You just repeat that over and over again.  Alternatively, you can always do a three strand braid instead, that is totally up to you.

This recipe was featured on Buzzfeed’s list of the 20 best 5 ingredient bread recipes!

Homemade Challah Bread

Common questions about making challah bread

Is challah bread similar to brioche?

Yes, challah bread is similar to brioche.  Challah bread is typically a Jewish bread that is kosher with no dairy in it.  On the other hand, brioche is a french bread made with similar ingredients and it included butter rather than an oil such as vegetable oil.  Overall, they taste pretty similar.

How do you eat challah bread?

There are so many ways to eat challah! Some of my favorites include toasting it and serving it with butter or jam but you can also slice it up and use it in french toast, bread pudding, or in a sandwich.

What can you use as a substitute for challah bread in recipes?

If you are making a recipe that calls for challah in it (such as a french toast recipe), brioche or another similar light and fluffy white bread would be a good substitute.

Jewish Challah Bread

This bread is good for about a week before it starts to get stale.  My favorite thing to do with it was to cut up a slice, toast it, and have it with a bit of gooseberry jam on it.  It’s so versatile that you can eat it with both savory or sweet toppings as it is simply a nice white bread.

Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Additional Time 2 hours
Total Time 3 hours 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 package instant yeast
  • 4 - 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add in vegetable oil, water, and 2 eggs, mixing until well combined.
  2. Using either a dough hook or a well floured surface, knead for about 10 minutes or until smooth. Transfer to an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour. It should have doubled in size.
  3. After an hour, punch down the dough and let rise an additional 30 minutes.
  4. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and divide into 6 evenly size pieces. Roll each piece into about 12 inch logs. Pinch the tops of all six strands together and then take the furthest right strand and cross it over the next two strands to the left, weaving it under the third, and then back over the remaining two.
  5. Repeat the same process of going over two, under one, and over two for the remaining strands of bread until you run out of space. Tuck the remaining bread strands under to make the loaf look nice and clean. Transfer to a lined sheet pan.
  6. Beat the remaining egg until smooth and then brush on top of the bread. You may sprinkle sesame seeds or poppy seeds on top or leave it plain. Let rise for an additional 20-30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven to 375. Bake for about 35-40 minutes or until the bread has cooked through and the top is a rich brown.

German Apple Cake (Versunkener Apfelkuchen)

German Apple Cake (Versunkener Apfelkuchen) – A classic German apple cake ready in just 45 minutes! Flavorful butter cake with whole sliced apples topping it!

German Apple Cake (Versunkener Apfelkuchen)

Something I remember about my trip to Germany many years ago was just how delicious all of the food I had when I was there.  The schnitzel, pfeffernusse, roggenbrot, and more! One of my favorite things was a versunkener apfelkuchen, a delicious cake with full apples in it.  It’s different from other apple cakes that have chunks of apple mixed right into the batter whereas this one has a quarter of an apple thinly sliced and placed on top to create the beautiful top to the cake.

This is really a great fall recipe to make as it has so much apple and a bit of cinnamon in it.  I served it topped with a bit of powdered sugar, homemade whipped cream, and hot apple cider and it tasted like fall!

Common questions about making german apple cake (apfelkuchen)

What apples are best for apple cake?

For this german apple cake, smaller sweet, not too mushy apples such as jazz or honeycrisp are perfect.  If you are using larger apples, you may need to cut them down a bit so that they cook through.  I found that you only want the apples to be about 1″ thick at most.

How long does apple cake last?

This apple cake can stay fresh for about 2-3 days or about 5 days if refrigerated.

Can you freeze an apple cake?

Yes, let the apple cake fully cool and then wrap tightly with plastic wrap.  It can last for up to 3 months in the freezer when stored that way.

Matcha Milk Bread

Matcha Milk Bread – Light and fluffy pull-apart Japanese bread that is easy to make! This milk bread recipe uses the tangzhong roux method with a touch of matcha!

Matcha Milk Bread

Matcha Milk Bread

I’m back with another version of my ever popular Hokkaido Milk Bread recipe! This version has been popping around my head for a while because I thought that adding matcha would add a nice, subtle flavor to the bread.  Once I got around to making it, I was pleasantly surprised with how delicious it is.  Dare I say that I like it even more than the original version?

Japanese Milk Bread

As I said in the previous milk bread recipe, I first had milk bread in when I was visiting Tokyo and I was instantly a fan.  Making it at home is really easy but you just need to keep in mind that like most breads, it takes quite a while to make but it is worth it!

To serve it, I suggest heating it up just a bit and spreading some butter on it for breakfast.  It’s delicious!

Hokkaido Milk Bread

Common questions about making milk bread

What is milk bread?

Milk bread (or shokupan) is a Japanese bread made from a Tangzhong base.  It is a very light and fluffy bread with a springy texture that is lightly sweetened.

Why do you need dry milk in bread?

Dry milk helps create a tender loaf of bread and gives it flavor.

What is a Tangzhong?

Tangzhong is an Asian baking technique in which part of the dough is cooked with water ahead of time in a roux.

Other tips and tricks on this milk bread recipe

  • I highly suggest using at least a 9″x4″ bread pan that is deep.  Mine was not as deep as I would have liked it to be so the bread spilled over the edge of the pan a bit instead of growing as high upward.
  • This bread is a little sweet and great with butter or jam on it!
  • You can turn this bread dough into a dinner roll recipe instead! Divide the dough into 16 pieces, roll the dough into balls, transfer to a greased 8″x8″ pan, and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown on top and 190 degrees inside.

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Additional Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Total Time 2 hours 40 minutes

Ingredients

Starter

  • 1/4 tablespoon bread flour
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup water

Dough

  • 2 1/2 cup bread flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, 1 yeast packet
  • 1 tablespoon dry milk powder or sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons matcha
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk, room temperature
  • 1 egg, room temperature and beaten
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • Heavy cream or melted butter

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combined the ingredients for the starter. Stir continuously for 4-5 minutes or until the starter thickens to the consistency of mashed potatoes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let sit until starter gets to room temperature.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together bread flour, sugar, yeast, dry milk powder (optional), matcha powder, and salt. Once mixed, add in milk, starter, and beaten egg. Using the dough hook attachment, beat on low for 5 minutes. Add in butter and beat 5 more minutes. Turn the speed up to medium and beat for a final 5 minutes. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let sit for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
  3. Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 equally sized pieces. Roll each out to be 8"x5" and then fold each of the long sides in 1". Starting on one of the shorter edges, roll up and place in a greased 9"x4" pan. Repeat with each piece of dough. Cover and let rise for an additional 45 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Once the dough has risen, brush the top of the dough with heavy whipping cream. Place into oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the inside is 190 degrees.
  5. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before removing bread from pan. Let cool on a cooling rack before serving.

Chipotle Chicken Tacos

Chipotle Chicken Tacos

Chipotle Chicken Tacos – A quick and easy meal filled with flavor! Chicken covered in a spicy chipotle sauce and topped with tasty toppings in a tortilla.

Did you know that September is National Cholesterol Awareness month? It’s such an important aspect of maintaining good health that we don’t focus on enough, so I think having a month dedicated to it is a great way to gain awareness of it. Going into September, I have been trying to make some of my favorite recipes lighter by replacing just a few ingredients with ones that are better for me. A clinical study showed that Mazola® Corn Oil reduces cholesterol 2x more than extra virgin olive, oil so I wanted to give it a try. To learn more about this claim, see Mazola.com. Once I heard about the study, I knew it was time to switch and give it a go in my next dinner recipe. Mazola Corn Oil is an all-purpose, cholesterol free cooking oil that is a smart heart-healthy* choice for your family. *See Mazola.com for more information on the relationship between corn oil and heart health. It has a variety of uses including baking, grilling, sautéing, stir frying, or mixing up a marinade or dressing.

Mazola Corn Oil

For my recipe for National Cholesterol Awareness month, I wanted to make a healthier spin on a classic chicken taco. For my version, I was envisioning grilling the chicken instead of frying it and coating it with a crunchy batter, substituting a crema made with mayonnaise and sour cream for plain Greek yogurt, using corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas, and using Mazola Corn Oil instead of a different cooking oil such as vegetable, canola, or peanut. Additionally, instead of a slaw that is bogged down with sauce, I decided to simply mix fresh lime and red cabbage together to add a little extra crunch and flavor to the tacos.

Chicken Tacos

Easy Taco Recipe

To give the tacos more flavor, I decided to make them chipotle chicken tacos with a bit of spice and flavor. You would never know that these tacos have lower cholesterol!

Chicken Tacos

Mazola Corn Oil is great because it is a heart-healthy*, all-purpose, and cholesterol free cooking oil that can be used for anything such as baking, grilling, sautéing, stir-frying, or even adding to a marinade. *See Mazola.com for more information on the relationship between corn oil and heart health. Mazola Corn Oil has four times more cholesterol-blocking plant sterols than extra virgin olive oil and one and a half times more than canola oil. I used it in both the marinade for this recipe and in the pan to keep the chicken from sticking. Mazola Corn oil has a neutral flavor that allows the ingredients you are cooking with to shine through, plus it has a higher smoke point than most cooking oils at 450 degrees. I had no idea that cooking oils all have different smoke points and that if you exceed them, they can negatively affect the food’s flavor and nutritional value. You can reduce cholesterol and saturated fats in your diet by doing simple substitutions like using Mazola Corn Oil instead of butter!

    then place in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to marinade.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine remaining lime juice with
    the cabbage. Mix and then refrigerate until ready to serve.
  3. Pour about 1 tablespoon of Mazola® Corn Oil into a large pan over medium heat. Place marinaded chicken in the pan and cook about 8-10 minutes, mixing occasionally, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Notes

*I used a can of chipotles in adobo sauce. This is usually available in most grocery stores Spanish foods department.

Instant Pot Pork Stew – Tender and delicious pork stew made in just 40 minutes! Tender pork, carrots, and potatoes are filled with flavor!

With fall just around the corner, I’m getting so excited about all of the cozy recipes I get to make such as casseroles, soups, and stews. My favorite recipes are those that are not only cozy, but quick and easy to make so that I can focus on spending more time with friends and family and less time in the kitchen.

If you hadn’t noticed, I LOVE Smithfield® Pork. Between my spicy pork ramen, cuban sliders, and cajun pork pasta, I have made a lot of recipes with their pork.  I love the versatility and different ways it can be prepared so that it can fit into just about any dish! They focus on being real fresh, real flavor, real fast with their fresh and flavorful all natural ingredients that are always made with 100% fresh pork with the perfect marinades and seasonings!

When I saw Smithfield Rotisserie Tenderloin at my local Walmart, I was immediately excited to try it. I thought it would be perfect in a pork stew recipe to serve at my upcoming cabin trip with family. To make it, I thought using my instant pot would be a great way to speed up the recipe and reduce the amount of dishes needed since I could saute and cook the soup in the same pot.

I found the Smithfield Rotisserie Tenderloin right in the fresh meat department with all of the other pork cuts. Make sure to check out their other varieties too!

Now to make this pork stew, you only need a few ingredients – Smithfield Rotisserie Tenderloin, chicken broth, 2 carrots, 2-3 cups of baby potatoes, minced garlic, and ½ of a yellow onion. This is a flexible recipe that you can always add more to such as additional seasonings such as thyme or a bay leaf or extra vegetables including mushrooms or celery but that’s entirely up to your preference. I found this to be a simple and delicious stew as is! It ends up so tender and delicious, you will love it!
