When reading the name of this dish, you could probably guess exactly what is in it, but it was perfect Sunday breakfast. Really what had happened was that we had left over cake when we first woke up, but then realized that later, we were still hungry and wanted something that would be real food,…
Grilled Cod with Citrus Browned Butter Sauce
This recipe is more about the sauce than the cod. There isn’t anything special to say about the seasoning on the cod, but the brush of canola oil and sprinkling of salt and pepper. The winner of this is the sauce. This citrus browned butter sauce is fantastic with the richness of the…
Pineapple Avacado Salsa
You may start to see a theme right now in the recipes that I am posting. That theme would be SPRING!!! It is time for every last bit of snow to be gone and the outdoors to be nice and warm. I want to sit on my patio with a glass of wine while my…

Artichoke, Olive & Feta Pasta Salad
This is my nod to desiring spring to be here soon. Looking for light and fun things to make that will help along a warmer season. I know that it isn’t spring yet because there is still snow on the ground and it is much colder outside than you would think by looking at the…
Chicken Meatballs & Spaghetti
Normally, when I think meatballs, I think meat – good ol’ grade a beef. Usually mixed with marinara sauce and noodles. But meatballs aren’t just for hamburger anymore and this tasty chicken variation really proves that. The combination of the leaner ground chicken, flavorful pizza sauce and fresh gooeyness of the mozzarella cheese creates…
