One of the best kept secrets in KC is First Friday lunch at @novel_kc. Four delicious, seasonal courses. Make sure you have reservations! #kansascitymo #kcmo #eaterkc
Biscuits and Gravy is totally a "sometimes" food, but I love making it when we have guests in town! Recipe link in my story or below 👇 https://blackberrybabe.com/2022/11/01/southern-country-gravy/
AD: YES, you can make juicy burgers in your air fryer! I used @lauras_lean ground beef to make these delicious French Onion Sliders! 🍔 These tasty sliders are made with all-natural beef that NEVER uses antibiotics or added hormones. I topped the lean burger patty with cheese, quick caramelized onions and arugula. And, you can substitute your bun for a lettuce wrap for a low carb option that tastes DELICIOUS! #allnatural #lauraslean #1naturalbeef #betterforyou
My current obsession? Turning leftovers into new things, like this pulled pork I turned into BBQ pork nachos (recipe link in stories). How bout you? #pulledpork #nachos #foodography
I've partnered with @idahoanfoods to create my own Mash-A-Bowl recipe using Idahoan’s Four Cheese Mashed Potato Cups! Last week, I visited Idahoan’s #MashedInAmericaTour – the world’s 1st immersive mashed potato experience – at the Big 12 Championship and had so much fun! I was inspired by Kansas City Barbecue to create my BBQ Pork Meatball Mash-A-Bowl, topping Idahoan’s Four Cheese Mashed Potato Cup (made from 100% real Idaho potatoes!) with delicious barbecue pork meatballs, French fried onions and chives! Find the entire recipe below. For even more delicious Idahoan Mash-a-Bowl recipes, visit https://idahoan.com/recipes/ Michelle’s BBQ Pork Meatball Mash-A-Bowl Serves 2 Ingredients: 2 Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potato Cups 1/2 pound ground pork 1/4 cup Italian breadcrumbs 1/8 cup grated parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon black pepper 3/4 cup Kansas City-style barbecue sauce For garnish (optional): French fried onions, diced green onions Instructions: Prepare the Idahoan Mashed Potato Cups following package instructions. Prepare the meatballs: In a large bowl, add pork, breadcrumbs, cheese, mustard, brown sugar and spices. Combine well, then form into meatballs no larger than 1-inch on any side. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil to a non-stick skillet, and heat on medium-high heat. Add the meatballs, and sear for 3-4 minutes per side. Once seared to golden brown on two sides, roll the meatballs on their edges to sear the remaining surface area until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit using an instant read thermometer. Remove the cooked meatballs to a medium bowl or casserole dish and top with 3/4 cup barbecue sauce of your choice. Toss gently to coat the meatballs with the sauce. Top the Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potato Cups with the sauced meatballs and optional garnish. Enjoy!
There's only two weeks until Valentine's Day! I prefer a special dinner at home and these Butter Poached Lobster Tails check all the boxes. ☑️ Plus, they're super hard to screw up! 🦞 Search for "lobster" at blackberrybabe.com for the recipe!
