Garlic Butter Chicken & Corn

This is probably one of my new favorite dishes. Creamy garlic corn topped with salty bacon and a nicely fried piece of chicken, what’s not to love? This dish is a new staple on our weekly menu! Ingredients 1-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts salt and pepper 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 5 slices thick cut […]

Bavarian Potato Salad

Potato salad is a side dish that varies depending on where you are geographically. While I love me a good ole mayonnaise potato salad with some BBQ in the south, I am obsessing over the German potato salad!

Our rule of thumb in the Brooks’ household is to have a pretty light lunch. However, sometimes that can get boring and just blah. So, I have been racking my brain trying to come up with different lunch ideas and I came up with this one! A BLT lettuce wrap, but with the addition of […]
