Goat Cheese with Pasta

Goat Cheese with Pasta

I picked up a bunch of asparagus at the grocery store recently with no idea about what I was going to do with it.  I don’t really like asparagus but recently we were trying to eat healthier, so when I was in search of a lunch dish that wasn’t a sandwich, I turned to pasta … Read more

Shredded Beef Chimichangas

Shredded Beef Chimichangas

I don’t know if you will believe this craziness, but until recently, I wasn’t a fan of Mexican food. Or at least I didn’t think that I was before I tried Shredded Beef Chimichangas. Perhaps I was mistaken. I just never craved, it didn’t sound good. Maybe that’s because the only Mexican food I ever really had … Read more

Chicken Meatballs in Garlic Tomato Sauce

I am so glad that I tried these Chicken Meatballs in sauce, and I didn’t do classic Marinara but experimented with garlic tomato sauce and served it greek style – with pita.

Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Everyone has their own idea of what “comfort food” is and should taste like.  For me, it’s warm, savory, and filling like chicken and biscuits casserole. That’s very country style, comfort, down-home, ready to be shared with friends dish for me and many Americans. This chicken and biscuits dish would probably fit the bill for … Read more

While at work today I was trying to think of something to make for dinner tonight (this week we’re trying to eat a bit healthier, so I planned for a Keto dish). And I was having a hard time. I knew we were having chicken, but what, exactly, was the question. So I checked my … Read more

Chicken Cheesesteaks

Chicken Cheesesteaks

I’ve had this Chicken Cheesesteaks recipe for a while and hadn’t made it, so after a long day of shopping last weekend, this was the perfect thing to throw together.

Buttermilk Roasted Chicken

Oh, roast chicken. You are a sight to behold in all your glory.  With crispy skin, juicy interior, and flavor throughout, you are magnificent. And I shy away from you. Why? Because you intimidate me.

Pasta with Pancetta and Peas

Pasta with Pancetta and Peas

As I was looking through some magazines, I saw this recipe for carbonara and did something that I never do. I went to the store RIGHT THEN and retrieved the needed ingredients for  dinner that same night. I am not really a more-than-once-a-week-shopper. I make a meal plan, shop once, and don’t go back to … Read more
