Foodie Favorites – February 10, 2016

foodie favorites - february 10, 2016 // my bacon-wrapped life

Missing these incredible Seattle dumplings this week! Vacation food is the best food.

Hi friends! How’s your week going? We’ve been keeping super busy around here and are planning on enjoying a low-key Valentine’s Day this weekend with a fancy homemade dinner, a bottle or two of wine, and maybe some Zoolander 2 (every woman’s dream, right?!). I can’t wait!! I hope you have a fun day planned with the people you love most, too (and maybe some sexy pink donuts). Here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!

I am totally drooling over this brown butter banana pudding. I love banana pudding, banana cream pie, etc. and the brown butter absolutely takes it over the top!

My soul is craving this spaghetti pie with pecorino and black pepper. I think this needs to happen in my house ASAP!

This right here is my ideal single-gal-for-the-night meal.

Every woman in the world who lives with their man knows what I’m talking about. It’s what we eat when our boyfriends/fiancés/husbands are traveling for business or having a guy’s night. It’s pure, selfish “me” food, and as much as we love our men, it’s always something we secretly look forward to making and eating when we get the rare single-gal-night opportunity. For me, my top single-gal meals include a lot of things that Brad will gladly eat, but doesn’t really consider a real, filling (read: meat-filled) meal: avocado toast, veggie and egg scrambles, grain bowls, anything with tons of butternut squash and/or sweet potato, and anything with the word “drizzle”. I manage to check of 3 of these boxes in this meal, so I consider this basically the ULTIMATE Meg-meal. I went all out, ladies.
