Yum Yum Wednesday – Grilled Cheesy Jalapeno Peppers and Recipe Flops

April 9, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 4 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I thought it would be fun to share with you recipes that I made that I felt were not blog worthy.  Either the picture didn’t turn out or they were a complete bust!!  Even the best of us end up with a flop or two or three….

Here is the first one for Butternut Squash Pizza.  I love this pizza, it’s made with pureed butternut squash, apples and onions, baked on a tortilla shell.  I have eaten this a bazillion times, but I just couldn’t get a good picture, but maybe one day I will?

Butternut Squash Pizza
This one is for Acai Blueberry Quinoa Cookies. I didn’t like the taste of the cookies, they just didn’t taste right. I felt they were most definitely not blog worthy.
Acai Bluberry Quinoa Cookies 018a
Greek Breakfast Bake – This recipe had good intentions and tasted amazing, but I couldn’t get a good shot. I don’t know what was up with my eyes, but I couldn’t get a straight picture if I tried. I will have to make this again!
Greek Egg Bake

Baked Blueberry Pancakes – Oh man was this a flop! It tasted fair, not great and certainly not worthy of sharing with you. As you can see the pancake never puffed up at all. I wonder if I forgot the baking soda?
Baked Blueberry Pancakes
Vanilla Protein Blueberry Muffins  – I don’t know what the heck happened in these muffins, but I swear the top was going to explode!   They look like alien tops!
Vanilla Protein Blueberry Muffins
Here is a funny picture. Look at the tops!
Vanilla Protein Blueberry Muffins
Snickerway Smoothie – This is one smoothie that didn’t make the cut at all. It was really too sweet and gave me a tummy ache. I think from using too much caramel extract. Way to over powering. Plus the pictures did not turn out at all. The lighting was way off!
Snickerway Smoothie
Vegetarian Taco Filling, this tasted pretty good and I did eat it all, but the pictures were off and so bright, plus it came out a tad watery. I’ll re-make this again for sure, with a lot of modifications.
Vegetarian Taco Filling
Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Granola. This recipe was not intentional. I tried to make a healthy Rice Krispie treats and didn’t have enough ingredients and it turned out more like granola. Oh trust me, it tasted great, but not healthy, nor did the pictures turn out blog worthy.
Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treat Granola
Roasted Butternut Squash and Cranberry Quinoa. This tasted amazing! I however took the pictures at the wrong time of the day and it turned out crappy. I ate this all week in a tortilla shell. I love dishes like this and I was sad when the pictures were not good.
Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Quinoa
Here is my Left Over Cranberry Sauce Bread – I had good intentions when making this bread. I thought it would be great for a what to do with Thanksgiving Leftovers. It tasted pretty good, but the color turned out blue. I have no idea how, considering I didn’t have anything blue in the recipe and even used all purpose flour.
Cranberry Sauce Quick Bread


The color doesn’t look to blue here, until I cut it open. I thought it was my eyes when I took the photos, but then I looked at a piece and sure enough it was blue in color. I didn’t want you Guys to make it and come back and tell me my bread is blue, it just seems to weird!
Cranberry Sauce Quick Bread
Re-Fried Beans – I didn’t like the taste of these at all. My Husband and I went out to a Mexican restuarant and he ordered re-fried beans with his dinner. I never order them, but he said have a taste and I did. It tasted amazing! I loved it! I tried to re-create it and even though they look ok, mine did not taste very good! It didn’t have the restaurant taste to them that I was looking for. Needless to say we didn’t eat these.
Refried Beans
I know I have more recipes, but these are the only ones I put in my DO NOT USE file. It’s fun to go through them and share with you my not so great recipes. After all we are not perfect and I get quite a few flops weekly and usually post them on Instagram! It keeps me motivated to try again!! That is one of the reasons, I do recipe re-makes. The recipes are good, but the photos could use some work. I am trying harder for better photography this year. I got a new camera, but for the life of me, I don’t know how to use it. Eck!!  I really need to read the manual!

Do you ever have recipe flops??

Ok, now that you saw a flop, let me share with you a YUM, YUM  Wednesday Recipe!!  How about Grilled Cheesy Jalapeno Peppers!  I remember the day I made these peppers!  One thing you may not know about me, but hot spicy peppers, that I LOVE, well I am allergic to them.  I can eat them, but I can’t breathe near them .  When I cut hot peppers, it actually cuts the air from my throat.  I still cut them, but I run cold water near me, turn my head, hold the peppers with a wet cloth and cut as fast as I can and then run outside to gasp for air.  It sounds dramatic, but really it kind of is.  Anyway from recipes over the years, you know nothing stops me from my precious spicy peppers.   But enough about my pepper drama, these Grilled Cheesy Jalapeno Peppers are amazing!  AMAZING!!!!!!!!  They are loaded with cooked chicken, cream cheese and Monterrey Jack Cheese.  It so creamy, slightly spicy and just darn good!  The photos need some work, but I made these back in 2012 and I can guarantee I will be re-making them again, so I will take new photos!  You can get the recipe here!

Grilled Cheesy Jalapeno Peppers

That’s it for me today! Please do share your recipe flops with me! I would love to hear your stories!!

Have a wonderful day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    My absolute worst flop was when I ran out of propane while cooking Thanksgiving dinner! Not the recipe’s fault, but since then I always check the level of the tank when preparing to cook any special meal!

      Oh no! That is horrible! I had the same thing happen during a BBQ, but not a holiday!! it’s so annoying when those kind of things happen!! I bet the rest of your Thanksgiving dinner still turned out!

☕️hello, hello! I’m sharing with you my Chin ☕️hello, hello! I’m sharing with you my China that my Mom gave me. As a child I always loved this set. My Mom got these by saving the stamps you would get from the grocery store with purchase. Each piece of China had a stamp value. So once you collected enough stamps you could pick up another piece of the collection. Needless to say, my Mom collected a lot of stamps and I have the whole set to serve 12 people.☕️

Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room a lit Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room  a little bit. I took out my Easter decor and gave it a more neutral look and did some switching around. Plus I added a Samantha Sue, who is laying down in the photo. lol
🍓
One of my favorite pieces that I added was my new @krumpetshomedecor sign. I love the style of the sign with the shiplap white wash look and of course the cute strawberry and daisies that add a pretty pop of color.
🍓
The sign is also reversible. It also says Life is Sweet on the other side without the strawberries and daises. The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week.
🍓
You can get free shipping and an additional 10% off with my discount: PBANDP.
🍓
What is your favorite summer fruit?

Hello and happy Wednesday! Thank you for all your Hello and happy Wednesday!  Thank you for all your kind words about the dentist. All he had to do is cement my crown back on. He said your crown has sticky with clear stuff on it. He said I don’t think it’s the old cement?  I told him I ate a white Trader Joe’s jelly bean and I thought I got it all off. He was laughing.
🌿
It’s that time of year for house plant care. While your plants are waking from dormancy, it’s time to feed them, repot them if needed and give a trim if applicable.
🌿
I also water my plants about every 7-10 days, depending on the plant. My coffee plant, fern, violet and my mixed plant container needs watering more. The key to know when to water is check the soil. I use a water meter probe and  you just stick it in the dirt. If it’s dry, I water. If it’s moist or wet, I’ll check again in a few days. You can get a water meter at Lowe’s, your local nursery or Amazon. It’s my number 1 garden tool. We use it on outside plants too.
🌿
I’m also sharing with you my cute little tea towel that I got from @e.h.designco. Her shop is closed right now because she’s moving, but will be open back in June.
🌿
Okay, go check your plants!
🌿
What’s your favorite house plant?

Happy Tuesday! Well today’s the day! I head to Happy Tuesday!  Well today’s the day! I head to the dentist. Wish me luck. I hope they will be able to glue my crown back on. I hate going to the dentist! Ugh!
🌸
Today I am sharing with you my new plates and bowls that I got from @sonemone_official. I just love them. The shade of blue is so pretty and I love the vibrant colors on them.
🌸
The bowls are huge and would make a wonderful soup bowl or salad bowl. The plates would be beautiful served with a charcuterie board. They are microwave and dishwasher safe. They would be so pretty on a summer tablescape.
🌸
Are you ready for summer decorating?

Happy Good Friday! So happy the weekend is here. Happy Good Friday!  So happy the weekend is here. It’s been a glorious week with warm temperatures and sunshine. Next week it’s supposed to cool off dramatically, so I am going to enjoy it while it’s here.
💕
I wanted to get one last Easter tiered tray in before Sunday. Everything you see here is from small shops. I tagged all of them in the photo.
💕
This weekend I’ll be taking a break from IG to work in the yard and to do some decorating so I have some new content to share with you. Though with Easter almost behind us, I’m unsure what I’ll do next? But I do think I’ll stick with the yellows? But we’ll see.
💕
Have the most wonderful weekend and Easter holiday!!

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind us and now we are in April. March flew by in a blink of an eye.  I can’t get over how fast the month went. It’s crazy.
🌸
My excitement for me today is trying to get into a dentist. My crown on my implant fell out yesterday when I was eating a jelly bean. The last place I want to go is the dentist. Yuck!
🌸
I’ll admit engagement in March on IG has just been awful. But I am so thankful for you. Thank you for stopping by and liking my photos and your sweet comments. You always make my day. Let’s hope April is better for all of us.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos of March. You guys picked some good ones. The first photo of the Easter tablescape is my favorite tablescape I’ve done.
🌸
Do you have any plans for this weekend?

Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 bunnies into this picture, if you count the bunnies on the pillow. Can you find them all?
🐰
This is probably my favorite spot to decorate. About a year or so ago, I had no idea what to do in this area. I struggled so much. It’s just an odd space. Then I bought the white bench and it instantly became so much fun to decorate.
🐰
I loved the bench so much, I bought a second one to go under the other window. That bench holds my plants. I have other awkward spaces in my home that I would love to add a bench, but my husband would kill me if I got another. I can overdo things when I like something. Like bunnies and pumpkins. lol
🐰
Do you have something that you can’t resist to buy?

Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vigne Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vignette. I told you that I’m trying to squeeze them all in.
🐰
Let me tell you, I must have taken a bazillion photos of this vignette. I moved it all over my house. I have the worse time photographing greens and yellows together. I have the same issue with sunflowers too.
🐰
I was inspired by this vignette by the cute little Fresh Dyed Eggs sign from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. I love the little sign so much. She makes the cutest little signs.
🐰
I had fun putting together the shallow pot with moss and the birds nest. I added my little daffodils to it to look like they are popping out of the pot.
🐰
Is there something you try to photograph that gives you a hard time?

Happy Monday!! I can’t believe next weekend is E Happy Monday!! I can’t believe next weekend is Easter, so you know what that means? I need to get in as many bunny pictures as I possibly can.
🐰
Who am I kidding? You’ll probably get a lot more bunnies in the coming weeks. In all actuality, I keep most of my bunny decor up all year, unless it screams Easter.
🐰
This weekend was a busy one for me. The first real warm weekend we’ve had all year, so I spent a lot of time working the garden. I’m actually kind of sore, which is a good thing. Nothing like the sun shining, warm air and playing in the dirt. My favorite thing.
🐰
What do you look most forward to when the weather warms up?
