Happy Birthday to your mom! And is Canadian Tire not what it sounds like (a tire store)? There’s something funny about you buying a skillet there 🙂
Laura says
Hahaha…they do sell tires but also many other household products like a department store 🙂
laura says
The pulled pork sandwiches look yummy!
Thanks for hosting Laura! 🙂
Laura says
I love pulled pork in the slow cooker as it’s so super easy to throw together….my kind of meal!
April says
That cookie looks DELISH! Must try it!!
Melanie says
So happy that you liked it – such an easy go to dessert!
Laura says
I love my pan too, can’t wait to use it for other things 🙂
Andrea @ thedistractedhousewife says
I opened up this line and my immediate reaction was UUUMMFF. That chocolate chip skillet cookie about knocked me out of my chair with how delicious it looks.
Laura says
Right? I couldn’t not try it lol
Karen says
Okay, this is totally hilarious – I was making a turkey pot pie in my cast iron skillet for dinner last night and thinking that I really would like to find a recipe for making a giant chocolate chip cookie in it. And here it is!! I didn’t even have to Google it 🙂
BTW, I have 3 sizes of cast iron skillets and they are the only frying pans I use anymore. Just love love love them and they will last forever if cared for reasonably well. And Canadian Tire is definitely the place to get one when they go on sale for 65% off (that’s how I got my largest one, my mid-sized one is a yard sale find and it’s pretty old and has a great “season” on it).
Laura says
I love it when that happens! Yes I’m definitely going to buy a bigger one on the next sale for sure. I loved it!!
Haley says
Have you tried using chickpeas instead of flour? I made a flour less coco cake with chickpeas for a friend and it was really moist. Just blend the chickpeas in your blender and add to the recipe.
Laura says
I haven’t tried that but will definitely keep it in mind. I love chickpeas!
Jennifer says
Monday: Chicken and White bean chili
Tuesday: Stroganoff (with low fat sour cream) egg noodles and green beans
Weds: Gumbo (chicken, shrimp, sausage) with rice
Thursday: Homemade, baked chicken tenders and oven fries
Friday: Baked fish, rice and mixed vegetables
Saturday: Tacos with 1/2 turkey 1/2 beef
That cookie looks amazing and have spurred a major chocolate craving this morning! I started counting calories last week in an effort to lose weight. For desert, I have been enjoying lowfat vanilla ice cream with fruit.
Laura says
Sounds like a yummy week Jennifer!
Janet says
Yum! My husband has made one of those skillet cookies before and it was amazing! Glad your gluten-free version turned out tasty as well. We’re doing crock-pot pulled pork too this week. Definitely a favorite of ours. Have a great week.
scarlett says
thank you for featuring my easy crowd pleasin’ chicken! Hope you like it!!
Pat @ Elegantly, Gluten-Free says
Hi Laura —
Your chocolate chip skillet creation looks terrific! It must have a wonderful crust after baking in that skillet. I’m sure I’d love eating some 🙂
karen says
OMG…that skillet cookie looks divine and my stomach is growling so loud, but I will be strong and not each anything else tonight.
Thanks so much for linking up, off to get more ideas.
Carrie A. says
