It’s summer which means one thing- It’s BBQ time. We always tend to go all out and barbecue massive amount of meats for our bbq parties and so, inevitably, there’s always some leftovers.

Again, it doesn’t have to be just beef, it could be replaced with pulled pork, bbq chicken or even chunks of leftover sausage. Get creative! It makes a great next day snack.
Sriracha is heavenly nectar for all spice lovers. It’s something you just can’t get enough of and no matter what you use it on/in, it always makes things better.

This is one fantastic variation that is perfect all through the winter. It’s rich and creamy with the melting brie and the sweetness of the cranberry works perfectly here. This recipe works really well with leftover Christmas turkey and stuffing too!
A fantastic veggie upscale version of the classic. This recipe uses a mix of sharp cheddar, parmesan and blue cheese for gooey perfection. If you’re not a fan of blue cheese, swap this for some mozzarella for those Instagrammable cheese stretches!
A delicious Parisian affair, the croque monsieur is definitely one grilled cheese sandwich you must try. This recipe used gruyere cheese, dijon mustard and slices of ham topped with bechamel sauce (tip- if you don’t have time to use bechamel, simply sprinkle on some cheddar to give a cheese-topped effect).
