Amy's Epic Kitchen

Respect is key, disagreement can be done with respect.

I have been very much out of commission since COVID came into all of our lives...

Just wanted to do a quick post regarding some specials that some may be interested in!

Gift sets and baking sets for your littles that are low sugar and introduce the joy of baking, gifts for the cooking lover in your life and an amazing set to put a delicious turkey dinner on your family’s table this holiday season!

These are all available while supplies last, so don’t wait long or they’ll be gone!

5 Tips for a better burger — E P I C U R E Grilling season is here! Before you fire up the BBQ, keep these tips in mind for cooking a Better Burger. Go lean   Choose lean, not extra lean for a really juicy burger. If you’re looking for something leaner, consider grass-fed (beware though, it can be costly). Gras

This is probably my favorite Epicure blend! It makes delicious fresh Pico for tacos or a Cafe Rio style salad with my leftover Pulled Pork.
I also love it in my morning omelette or just on scrambled eggs. I’m learning new tricks for it every week!

Our own emotional intelligence will matter far more to our success in life than our IQ, but our educational system rarely focuses on anything but the latter.

An Adult’s Guide to Social Skills, for Those Who Were Never Taught It’s a shame so few of us are taught the basics of how to interact constructively with each other. If you never were, we’re here to help.

The weather is changing... the cool air is moving in and we may even have snow on Sunday!🌨
After a busy night shift at the hospital my brain needs something easy, but I don’t want to turn to prepared processed foods full of salt, preservatives and god knows what else!
I whipped up a pot of chili today using my own recipe, but used the Cha Cha Chili seasoning instead of digging through my spice cupboard.
It was a winner! The hubs, the blue eyed boy and myself threw some sour cream, shredded cheese & crushed up some tortilla chips on top... and done! Comfort food that is real food!

I am the worst at remembering to take a photo of my food before I eat! 😩
Served on a bun tonight with some Asian slaw, every plate was empty of their sandwich before I snapped a pic.📸
I cooked a 5lb. shoulder roast which is waaaaay too much meat for my little family, but it’ll be divided up & frozen in smaller portions. I’m already drooling over the future tacos🌮 this will become!
