Sriracha Brussel Sprouts!
So, I found this amazing recipe. Rather, it’s creator found this blog via WordPress. I, then, found the Nerdsteak.com site and this recipe for Sriracha Brussel Sprouts. Readers, I don’t know if you know or not, but WordPress is its own neat community these days! When I first started blogging a year and a half ago, I always felt like I was talking to myself, but finding other blogs to read and realizing that others find this blog is pretty cool, now!
As soon as I saw his recipe, I knew I had to make it! I couldn’t find the exact spice blend that he uses at my local grocery store (I’ll look into buying it online; it looks like a cool brand of spice products), so I used what we, in this house, refer to as “Rooster Sauce.” It is the Huy Fong Foods SRIRACHA. The results were incredible!! AND, it was super easy to make!!
Directions:
Cut Brussel sprouts into halves or quarters
Coat in olive oil, tossing in a bowl
Drizzle and coat in Sriracha in the same bowl (1/2 cup or so)
Spread onto baking sheet and add s&p, to taste
Bake at 350F for about 20 minutes
Stir in more Sriracha and coconut (1/2 cup or so) and almond slivers (1/2 cup)
Return to oven for an additional 5-8 minutes!
Sooooo good!

Buffalo Chicken Crescent Roll “Lasagna”
Somedays, it just nice to put together something quickly and easily that you know the kids will eat. When you can let just a few easily accessible ingredients do the heavy lifting, it is even better! Days that I make a meal using only one frying pan and an 8″x8″ dish without messing up a cutting board, a bajillion mixing bowls and measuring cups, then I have time to actually spend with my girls! Love!
Tonight, I layered crescent rolls, chicken in Buffalo sauce, shredded cheese, repeat, repeat, repeat. “Lasagna” style! So easy!
Here are the ingredients:
2 pounds of Tyson ground chicken (cook in pan, until done)
1 cup of Frank’s buffalo sauce (add into pan after chicken is done)
2 tubes of Pillsbury crescent roll dough
3 cups shredded cheese blend (I used WalMart’s Great Value “Fiesta Cheese”)
Preheat oven to 350F
Grease an 8″x8″ glass baking dish
Layer dough, cooked chicken/sauce, cheese,
Repeat. Repeat. Ending with dough on top, covered in cheese.
Cover with foil, Bake 40-45 minutes at 350F
Turn on broiler to brown cheese on top for 2-3 minutes, if desired.
See!
Easy!
No muss, no fuss!
The kids say, “YUM!”
They even ate their brocolli, in order to be granted rights to get a second serving of the Buffalo Chicken Crescent Roll “Lasagna”!
