Oh boy. Seriously, I was wondering if I'd ever have it in me to blog again. I felt like a college kid who skipped class one day . . . and then the next day . . . and then it was a week. How did I miss blogging for almost two weeks?! Dudley calls me a blogoholic, but I've felt so guilty about missing blog posts and dates and being such a bad blogger that I haven't even looked at a blog. Well, I suppose it doesn't help that things have been just a little off-kilter here in Singleton-ville. Things to do, places to go, and people to see.
I made these pumpkin pie muffins, chosen for the CEiMB group by
Oddball Oven Mitt, a couple of weeks ago, and they are so delicious. They're just the right amount of sweet and I love the texture. The only thing that I changed was to up the spices a tad, but that's just because I love spicy pumpkin breads. These are seriously wonderful pumpkin muffins, and I will definitely make them again. You definitely wouldn't know that they're "healthy" muffins just by tasting them!
OK, now I have to do a little rewind. My bloggy friend Marthe, of
Culinary Delights, chose
Easy Chicken and Mushroom Quesadillas for last week's CEiMB pick. I made these quesadillas last week, photographed them, but didn't ever have time to post them here. I love quesadillas. Growing up in Texas, we always had tortillas in the fridge, and one of the first lunches I learned how to make for myself as a child was a tortilla with cheese on it. I didn't know that I was eating a cheese quesadilla, but I ate a lot of tortillas with cheese on summer vacations growing up! I didn't have time to cook the chicken, and I don't really rock on mushrooms, so I made a few changes to these quesadillas. I subbed onions and sweet bell peppers for the mushrooms, and I made these veggie quesadillas with spinach, mushrooms, and peppers. I had some asadero cheese that I used in these quesadillas. If you happen to see it at your grocery store, be sure and grab some. Asadero cheese is the best, easiest melting cheese I know of. I think it's a form of oaxaca cheese and it also goes by the name queso quesadilla, go figure. These quesadillas were delicious!
