Kickin Avocado Burger

I love eating hamburgers. There is something about them that I can’t get enough of, and there are so many ways to make them. Here is a great tasting burger that I made the other day, and the sun was finally out. It has a great amount of avocado and the horseradish gives it a nice bite.

Doubleishly Good Chocolate Chip Cookies

I am sorry it has been a while since I added anything to my blog. It has been a crazy month or so.  I have been working on my first cookbook and I have been working on many new dishes. I have come up with almost 20 new things since my last post.  I have been working on lots of different things lately, and I have to say I have been lazy about writing posts. Today I want to share a cookie dish I came up with while my wife was out of state. After I made these cookies I decided to make a cookie sandwich treat. I thought about those cookie sandwiches that you find in the store and I thought I would really like one. With this, I made my own Monster Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Cookie sandwich.

Maynardize It

The reason why I call it Maynardize It is because it is just that. I take a lot of normal things that people see and give a whole new look and flavor to it that is not normally found. I love creating new things and making them my own style. I also love taking everyday things and adding my own flare to it that makes it stand out from the rest and from the norm. One of our frequent dinner guests said that I Maynardize food. Then we thought that would be a pretty good name for my book.
