View postGrilled Chicken & Bacon Pizza with Garlic Cream Sauce is the best homemade pizza recipe EVER! Better than any frozen, take & bake or delivery. WOW! AMAZING! Don’t miss my tip for quick & easy prep time too!
I have to tell you something. When I’m looking for a recipe for a certain something I no longer do a Google search for it. I used to refer to cookbooks or magazines long ago. Then came Google & then Pinterest.
But you know what? I have been reading certain blogs for so long that I remember who made what & my friend’s recipes have become my “go-to” now. If I’m looking for a certain kind of casserole, I know who made what I’m after & I can visit them directly to print the recipe. I love it because I know that these recipes are ones I can trust, like this Grilled Chicken & Bacon Pizza with Garlic Cream Sauce.
It’s not just some random recipe I came across. Nope- it’s from someone I value as an expert & I know it’s going to be amazing. So when I had the chance to join a handful of bloggers (all of whom I visit & re-make their recipes frequently) to collaborate on a recipe share I couldn’t pass it up.

The weather here has been so nice lately. The temps are in the high 70’s to low 80’s, which means it’s prime weather for being outside & enjoying where we live.
The summers here are sort of the payoff for the 4 months of snow we get in the winter. It’s all worth it when we can have these glorious days that call us to pack up the truck & head to the lake for some family time.

Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs are an easy chicken kebab recipe that is perfect for your summer grilling parties. Juicy & flavorful, great for tailgating & more.
Man, I love grilling chicken in the summer. One of my favorite things about the warmer months is taking all the mess of making meals & moving it outdoors. It sure makes cleanup a breeze. Especially when it is a meal as easy as these Teriyaki Chicken Kabobs.
