About six months ago, we were trying to figure out what was going to be for dinner, but I was feeling uninspired. Maybe that isn’t something that I should admit on this blog, but it happens to the best of us. Days can get long and balancing everything from work to home to cleaning to…

Manicotti
Growing up, my mom would make this Manicotti on special occasions. We all loved this meal – wonderful flavors, very filling and great re-heated (if there are any leftovers). I can still picture the large kitchen island and me and my brothers fighting over the spinning chair when waiting for dinner. We had many meals…
Sauteed Mushroom & Kielbasa with Ravioli
This perfect weeknight meal isn’t anything special by way of creating anything from scratch, but it IS a great way to elevate your standard pasta and sauce combo from the store. For me, it is the best type of meal after a long day of work – slice a few things, boil a few things,…
Sesame Honey Soy Chicken Breast
There isn’t much to tell about this quick weeknight dinner. Just four ingredients coming together to make your dinner an easy one. I had made this with the Peanut Sauce and Soba noodles in the span of 30 minutes. It is so rewarding to make a really satisfying meal in a short amount of time….
Grilled Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms
I don’t know how many times I will say this throughout the life of this blog, but I LOVE GRILLING SEASON!!! It seems like every year I get really excited to grill and share – as evidenced by the Lamb Burgers, Vietnamese Shrimp Pops, Grilled Romaine Salad, Pineapple Salsa, Grilled Mozzarella Bread …and so many…
Flour Tostada Tacos
You will all be getting this a little late, but this was our tribute to Cinco de Mayo at our house. I made a poor attempt at homemade refried beans. And by poor attempt, I really mean that they stunk. The flavor was there, but I didn’t get the right texture for this – so,…
Asian Pork Meatballs
There are many things that go into this four bite treat of a meatball and all of them are delicious!!! For some reason lately, I’ve been craving the hot zig of Asian foods. This meatball totally hit the spot on that. I think one of the biggest reason that I enjoyed these is because of…
Chicken Pot Pie
I know that I have said it before, but there is a certain satisfaction that comes from making a really good recipe for your family. Especially when that recipe is comfort food related and you haven’t made it before. Most of the Chicken Pot Pies I have had in my life have come from…
Baked Cod with Artichokes
There are some days that the only thing that sounds good is a dish that is filling, but really light and refreshing. That day for me was the day after Christmas. After all of the wonderful rich food of the holidays, I was seriously craving something simple and healthy. Although, I have cooked fish…
Honey Soy Porkchops with Light Salad
There is nothing better than cooking a great meal for family and everyone REALLY enjoying it. Could’ve been that it was a great summer evening as well. This meal was simple to put together and great to present. It was one of the few times I was cooking with the other white meat (pork),…
