Review: Chicken & Veg Stir Fry with Udon Noodles – Anne Burrell

Chicken and Vegetable Stir-Fry with udon noodles – Anne Burrell Recently my husband was out of town for a couple of weeks and I might have binge watched America’s Worst Cooks on the Food Network, ya now…maybe. OK, I did! I had never seen the show and enjoyed it, the mentors do a great job teaching basics like knife skills, definitions, and styles of cooking. I have been holding my knife wrong and now when I stick my finger out on the the blade I can visualize Anne Burrell

Roasted Green Pozole with Chicken & Grilled Mexican Corn – Date Night In

I just got a new cook book! Date Night In by Ashley Rodriguez, creator of http://notwithoutsalt.com/ . It is a lovely book about nourishing your relationship through making a special date night in. I have only tried 2 recipes, and 1 drink recipe, so far and will let you know how the others go, but these two were great. The book is broken down into Spring, Fall, Summer, and Winter and each section contains subcatagories of menus with a variety of cocktails, salads, soups, m

One Pot Chicken and Potatoes

Sometimes you just need something simple and one-pot-meals are the way to go! I am discovering that there are many meals that can be done this way. Today we are looking at chicken and potatoes, but if you are interested in a pasta dish try this one from Martha Stewart. One Pot Chicken and Potatoes Time: 1 1/2 Hours Ease: Simple Meal: To show you how simple one-pot-meals are I just threw this one together last night and you can do it too! I used: 4 skinless Chicken Thighs 1

Shrimp (almost) Tacos with Mango Slaw and Roasted Carrots with Carrot Top Gremolata

Sometimes things just don’t go the way we plan. This meal was one of those times! To start with I am not making one big grocery trip any more and trying to be more diligent to use what we have and plan more carefully and for the most part it is working. We are spending less and generally eating more healthy meals. BUT, it means we do not have many groceries in the house. I was all ready to make dinner, when I pulled the shrimp out, freshly bought shrimp, and it smelled aw

What’s for Dinner? Pampered Chef Lemon Pasta Chicken Toss & Black Bean Pumpkin Chili by Ki

Summertime is full of vacations, staycations, running around and general busyness and can feel like we lose touch with each other, but with all of the parties, BBQs, picnics, pool parties etc. It provides us with so many different ways to connect. So while summer is different from the rest of the year I encourage you to take advantage of the chance to connect, reconnect and just hang out with one another and build relationships as well as memories, so while this is a busy ti

What’s for Dinner? Meatless Monday BBQ Veg Burrito Bowl, Rosemary Chicken & Sweet Potatoes

This week I was sick. I managed to make three meals and then spent the rest of the week sucking down hot tea with honey and lemon and inhaling essential oils. I stressed over coming up with extra meals for all of you and then decided the best thing is just to tell it like it is. Let’s face it, we all have weeks like this or weeks where there is just too much going on. When you have weeks like that and manage to get even one meal made and on the table I applaud you! Judge

Pinterest Meals: Potato & Cauliflower Pierogies, Swedish Meatballs, Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Cups

Do you remember what pinning something to your board used to look like? The picture above is my non-electronic board, still in use. However, I have moved into the modern age and have a great time Pinning awesome ideas for meals, dreams, DYI things, etc to my boards. Pinterest is great, mostly! It can suck you into it and then hours will pass before you know it. But, they are fun hours. This week I thought I’d try some of those yummy Pinterest meals we all pin to our bo

What’s for Dinner? Taking it Old School – 5 Meals from the 1969 Better Homes and Gardens

When I was 20 I was given some new cookbooks and I found that they had great ideas, but often said things like “open a jar and add….” I wanted to actually cook, not open a jar, where were the recipes! I remembered the great sweet and sour sauce that my mom made when my brother and I were kids, I could drink that stuff. I wanted to make things like that. So I asked my mom and she said the recipe had com from the “Old Better Homes and Garden New Cookbook” and I went on a sea

What’s for Dinner? A Taste of Great Britain: Shepherds Pie, Moussaka, Curry, & Steak &

There are a few things that you can’t get here in the USA or they are hard to find; Pimms which is an alcoholic drink they love over there, lemonade which is fizzy and not as sweet as ours, a good pasty shop just to list a few. So for those things, I guess I’ll have to go back. oh, and Primark and Marks & Spencer, and Pret a Manger and Yo Sushi. and, and, and, ok, ok, I have to go back! But you can make some of the wonderful things we tried. This week’s meals are an attem

Reviews: Momofuku, America’s Test Kitchen, Pressure Cooking for Dummies

One of the ways we comfort each other in times of sadness, sickness, and new birth is food, lots of food. Being from the south means you are guaranteed fried chicken, biscuits, sweet tea, and usually deviled eggs. Not to mention lots of pie. This week was no different. Lots of “down home” goodness, cooked and brought with love. Thank you to everyone who took such good care of our family!
