Holiday cooking made easy: 26 freezer friendly mains! How many of you are starting to plan for holiday cooking?

Cinnamon Bun Pie is a delicious and family-friendly dessert that's a lot easier than the original!  Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group. Ok, okay. I know. September just started and it's not even officially fall yet for another couple of weeks. But I can't help it. It was 70 degrees and rainy today, which means I'm totally going into fall mode. Goodbye peaches, hello apples. Goodbye beaches, hello pretty colorful leaves. And mostly, hello cinnamon buns. See, here's the thing about cinnamon buns. They're my ultimate weakness. Serious, can't resist kind of weakness. But the other thing about them? Well, … [Read more...]

Spicy Baked Curly Carrot Fries

September 2, 2016 by overtimecook Leave a Comment

Spicy Baked Curly Carrot Fries are a simple, easy, healthy and totally yummy side dish....with an extra dash of fun!  Raise your hand if you have nostalgic feelings toward those curly frozen french fries of your childhood. You too? I remember them fondly, and used them as an inspiration for this recipe. But then I made them healthier by using carrots, and made them tastier by adding a delicious blend of spices. But we kept the fun, nostalgic look, because who doesn't love that! I made this recipe special for my blogging buddy Chanie of Busy in Brooklyn fame, to give her some time off to spend with her gorgeous new baby girl. So head on over to Busy in Brooklyn to get this … [Read more...]

The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group Just last night, I was talking to my friend about a problem I have. While I enjoy going out to eat and trying new restaurants (if you're following me on Instagram you already know that!), there are certain categories of foods and drinks that I really can't order. The reason? I make it so much better myself. For example, paninis. I make delicious paninis myself, they're super quick and easy to make, and to be honest? Many restaurants just don't do a great job of … [Read more...]
