I love this #gifted DeJonghe Garlic seasoning so much, I used it in THREE ways when I made my garlic pork tenderloin!
Inspired by Golden Steer's iconic Shrimp de Jonghe served in their Las Vegas restaurant, the DeJonghe Zesty Garlic Spice is as bold as it is rich. The robust blend of garlic, lemon, and spices creates layers of flavor that is especially delicious on chicken and seafood.
I used it first in my marinade, along with lemon juice, olive oil, and white wine vinegar. It gave the meat delicious flavor!
Next, I seasoned the marinated pork with a light sprinkle of #goldensteersteakhouse Sergio's Seasoning (a salt and pepper blend), then rubbed on the DeJonghe blend. The spices created a delicious outer crust of flavor when I grilled the tenderloin.
As the pork rested, I used my new favorite seasoning in a creamy lemon Dijon sauce that was PERFECT over the juicy meat!
I always know I've hit a meal out of the park when there are no leftovers, and that's exactly what happened here. I'm going to make sure I always have DeJonghe seasoning on hand now!
You can find Golden Steer's DeJonghe Seasoning, Sergio's Seasoning, and many more creative, upscale seasoning blends at https://goldensteer.com/ . Hit the link in my TapBio to go straight there!
I'm excited to try #dejongheseasoning the next time I make my buttermilk chicken!
How would you use this seasoning?

I ❤️ making breakfast fun, so I made these super easy Cheesy Sausage Biscuit Sticks with my deliciously juicy #gifted Johnsonville breakfast sausage links! They were the perfect way to jazz up my scrambled eggs, especially with that yummy sausage-filled center!
Brown the @johnsonville breakfast links first, then set them aside on paper towels. Preheat the oven to 400F so it's ready when the biscuit sticks are assembled.
Pop open a tube of refrigerated biscuits (the smaller biscuits, not the huge puffy ones) and flatten each one. Roll each sausage in a piece of cheese, then wrap the sausage and cheese in a biscuit.
Be sure to seal the seams well! Lay the biscuit sticks on a baking sheet and bake at 400F for 10-15 minutes, until the sticks are golden brown.
Transfer to cooling rack, brush with melted butter and sprinkle with Everything Bagel seasoning.
I'm already looking forward to making these again. Who's with me?
Keep it FUN, and keep it JUICY!

There's nothing like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, and I was #gifted the BEST mix from @zookskitchen2024 !
If you've followed me for a while, you know how much I love 🍪 chocolate chip cookies, especially when they're homemade. But it takes time to round up all the ingredients, measure, mix, and bake. And time is something I'm always short on.
Using Zook's Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix gave me my time back! I only needed to add oil, an egg, and a little water to the mix and ta-da! I had a batch of crispy, chewy chocolate chip cookies in 30 minutes!
I love that Zook's Kitchen is a small, family-owned business that values fresh, delicious food and the memories made in the kitchen. With no preservatives, using their mix is just like baking from scratch... but with more chocolate chips! 😍
Be sure to give @zookskitchen2024 a FOLLOW and check out their delicious products. I'm looking forward to trying their soft pretzels next!

When I received this #gifted package of Smart Pocket bread by Toufayan, I knew it would be perfect for Garlic Bread Pasta Pockets!
These were inspired by my friend, who hollowed out garlic bread and used it to serve Fettucine Alfredo. I knew the thin whole wheat pockets would be perfect for a lighter version.
I used a muffin tin to hold the pockets open as I toasted them in the oven (just 3 or 4 minutes at 375F). Then I spread garlic butter inside eack pocket and loaded it up with spaghetti! 🍝😊
I love that @toufayan is a family-owned business with products I can pick up at the store or order on Amazon.
Be sure to watch my stories this week to see more ways that I'm using Toufayan Smart Pockets.
And don't forget to SAVE this dinner idea so you can try it, too!

Entertain in elegance with Domaine de Canton!
This post intended for ages 21+. Please drink responsibly.
We were #gifted a bottle of the world's first ginger liqueur, Domaine de Canton. This cordial has a distinct scent of fresh ginger and adds sweetness with a bit of spice to any cocktail.
Domaine de Canton is crafted with high quality ingredients like Tahitian vanilla bean, Vietnamese ginger, and honey from Provence, France. These elements come together to create a flavor profile that can be enjoyed on its own or in cocktails.
We chose to create a @DomainedeCanton Ginger Spritz that is certain to be the cocktail of choice at our upcoming gatherings. It's light, refreshing, and sophisticated. You'll need to give it a try!
1.75 oz Domaine de Canton
.25 oz lemon juice
3 oz prosecco
1 oz club soda
3 dashes Angostura bitters
Lemon twist

Living in the northern part of the US, I don't see hushpuppies very often.
But having vacationed in the South for many, many years, I developed something of an addiction for those deep fried, spiced-just-right nuggets of cornmeal.
Imagine my excitement when @savannahclassics gifted samples of their frozen hushpuppies... especially when I discovered I can get them RIGHT HERE in the Chicago area!
Savannah Classics Hushpuppies are fluffy and flavorful on the inside (scroll to see) with that crispy, buttery outside that I love to sink my teeth into! And I can make them at home easily in my air fryer, oven, or deep fryer!
These delicious hushpuppies are available in a few different varieties: sweet corn, jalapeno, and original. Let me tell you, their jalapeno hushpuppies made the perfect side dish alongside my Jalapeño Popper Stuffed Salmon! There's definitely a reason why they are the best-selling hushpuppies in America!
Check out where @savannahclassics hushpuppies are available near you on their website:

Or hit my TapBio to be taken there instantly!
Are you a hushpuppy lover?

Today was the big release of the Minecraft Meals at McDonald's. Did you get yours?
My teenage son suggested that we give them a try, so how could I refuse?
There are two types of Minecraft Meals: Big Mac or 10 piece Chicken McNuggets with exclusive Nether Flame Sauce. Each comes with medium-sized French fries and a medium drink.
The Minecraft Meals should not be confused with the Minecraft Happy Meals for kids.
That being said, the big, exciting feature of the Minecraft Meal is the secret code that unlocks an exclusive skin in-game. There are 6 different skins, and each comes with a correlating Minecraft collectible.
The code is on a trading card that is tucked into a Minecraft crate inside the meal box, alongvwith the collectible.
I love how McDonald's went all-out on the Minecraft teeming, from the pixelated Golden Arches on the French fry box to the "crafting table" design adorning the inside of the Big Mac box.
But what I loved even more was seeing my son's grin when he got the McPotion collectible. It was the one he wanted! I let him have my Fry Helmet, too. 😊
Did you get a Minecraft meal today? Which collectible did you get?
