Paremsan honey pork roast and Peanut Butter Cupcakes!!!


Today I had to work since Im off Friday for Rock on the Range!So I wanted some thing easy to cook and preferably not in the oven since it was 88 degrees today!!  So I used the crock pot! Turned out veryyyy yummy.

Parmesan honey pork roast

Pork roast
2/3c Parmesan cheese
1/2c honey
3T soy sauce
2-3 cloves garlic minced
2T dried basil
2T olive oil
1/2t salt
Spray crock pot. Add roast
Pour mix over and cook on low 7hrs. It was very good!! Paired with a salad!!!



Okay so I know I said earlier I did not want to use my oven because it was soo hot out, well I have not baked anything in a while, and today when I walked into the Columbus office I was asked if I brought any goodies. I sadly said no. SOOOO that was one reason I wanted to make some goodies and two I was bored LOL so I went for it. I have not made anything peanut butter so that was it.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

Cupcakes:
1c flour
1t baking powder
1/4t salt
6T butter room temp
1/2c brown sugar
1/2c sugar

1t vanilla
1/2c milk
chocolate chips

Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in bowl. In separate bowl mix vanilla and milk. In another bowl mix the butter, brown sugar, and sugar until smooth. Add in egg and beat until combine. Add peanut butter and beat until smooth. Add 1/2 of the flour and mix until combined. Add the milk mixture, then rest of flour mixture. Add your chocolate chips in! Yummyyy already! Preaheat oven to 350. When you put the muffins in the oven turn town to 325. Bake 22 minutes for big ones 12 for little ones. I guess turning the temp down is supposed make them turn out better???!!

Dessert and fishhhh

Today was a good day despite the rain we had the majority of the day. We went house hunting with a relator...found one okay one, but going to hunt again in two weeks! After houses hit the gym then lunch time. For lunch I made talapia. All I did was coat both sides with olive oil, then in a bowl I mixed parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Spread on both sides baked at 400 10 minutes.  Very good and quick. Of course had my roasted veggies and made a pasta side.

Dinner I met with my friend Shauna at a place by me called Pies Gourmet Pizza Bistro. I ♥ this place. They have really fancy food and gourment pizzas. They also had happy hour so we got this cocktail that was fabulous, pear grapefruit fizz yummmm. Sooo we ended up getting, Crispy fried brussel sprouts, cheese bread sticks, and Maple Burbon Bread pudding.  The pudding I had no idea what it was but holy hell it was the best thing ever. It had a scoop of coconut ice creamm too! Soo no dinner cooking toNight im full!!
