3 great chicken wing recipes

January 14, 2016 By betsy 4 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Taco Chicken Wings Do you have any idea how hard it is to be a food blogger when you’re getting ready to move? We’re 2 weeks out and my fridge is totally bare bones. Tonight for dinner I ate a kabocha squash roasted with curry powder, and half a can of chickpeas. That doesn’t even resemble an actual meal.

I’m really looking forward to Friday when I plan to cook up 1/3 of a bag of leftover frozen tater tots for dinner, and polish them off with the rest of my ranch dressing. I’m starting to wonder if I can market this way of eating as a new fad diet???

*makes note to research this idea further at a later date*

As you know (or should know), the blogging world is a lot of shiny, pretty things, that aren’t always what they seem. Case in point, I made these wings waaaaaaay back in September. I make a lot of things that don’t make the blog for one reason or another, but every once in a while, I just straight up forget about something, and it’s always a happy accident when I finally remember.

Mmmmmmm wings.

I wish I had something like this to eat now. Instead I’ll be over here experimenting with mug cakes and filling my belly with popcorn until the kitchen is totally empty, and I’m on my way to Oakland.

    Three fabulous choices! I can’t decide which one to try first, but I’m definitely leaning towards Tequila Lime . . .
