Snackin’ with Sarah Sellers: Mini Veggie Tarts

Posted on February 16, 2012 | 1 Comment

Season 11 is flying by on American Idol and we’re already down to 70 hopefuls. Tonight they’re headed to Vegas for some sin city fun and of course the drama that only Idol can provide. So for tonight’s recipe I thought I would follow some inspiration from a few of my favorite Vegas chefs.

All season long I’ll be dishing out themed recipes for Lyndsey Parker’s (Yahoo! Music) Reality Rocks blog! This recipe actually serves 8 tarts but in a moment of brilliance I pulled the hot pan out of the oven with a damp towel (yes I’m a genius) and instantly dropped the entire tray of tarts. Thankfully there was only one casualty and a few burned fingers! Try it out (the recipe…not my kitchen fail) they taste like mini veggie pot pies.

Snackin’ with Sarah Sellers: Spicy Pimento Cheese Bites

After last week’s nausea inducing episodes it was good to get back to some good ole fashion singing on American Idol tonight. Hollywood Week is quickly coming to an end as we get closer to another year in Vegas and one step closer to the live shows (my fav)!

Every week I’ll be cooking up plenty of snacks for your Idol viewing pleasure and for Yahoo! Music blogger Lyndsey Parker’s Reality Rocks blog (sorry that was a mouthful). So while everyone is getting their appetites back from last week I thought I’d whip up a delicious and incredibly simple appetizer. Give it a try…it’s stick to your ribs good!

Snackin’ with Sarah Sellers: Grilled Avocado with Black Bean Corn Salsa

Last night we got to see the great talent in Colorado and tonight American Idol is headed to my home state TEXAS! So needless to say for tonight’s Snackin’ with Sarah Sellers I felt right in my element.

I would consider myself an expert on all things tex-mex, and nobody (in my very biased opinion) does Mexican food better then Texas. So for tonight’s episode in Galveston/Houston I thought I would make a beach friendly appetizer that stays true to the best cuisine a girl could ever ask for.

American Idol is officially in full swing and tonight they’re headed to Aspen, Colorado for the second week of auditions. I was a little confused at first since the audition city posted on the website is Denver, so I’m assuming the call back rounds were held in Aspen. Nevertheless I cooked up a Colorado inspired appetizer for tonight’s episode.

Lyndsey Parker of Yahoo! Music was gracious (and adventurous) enough to include my recipes on her weekly reality music blog, Reality Rocks, for Season 10 and now Season 11. It definitely makes my last stab at Idol worth it that much more (see my audition here).
