Grilled Lamb Chops Kudos to my hubby who made dinner this evening. He grilled these Lamb Chops, and if you’ve never had them, this is the perfect recipe to try. Our first experience was at the prompting of my son who bought us a Lamb Chop marinade for Christmas. We’ve been hooked ever since. This…
Greek SaladI crave this salad and often bring it for lunch as it travels well and always delivers. The classic taste of tangy feta cheese and salty kalamata olives pairs well with the fresh crunch of English cucumbers and sweet-hot red onions. The store-bought dressing, Seeds of Change Greek Feta Vinaigrette, got it right with…
Broccoli Ham and Cheese Fritatta Being that several members of my family are not big fans of egg bakes or quiche (both of which I love), I created my broccoli ham and cheese fritatta to be thinner than the classic. It’s so easy to make and you can vary the ingredients to taste. Try it with…
Creme Brulee When you think of Creme Brulee you think of a special occasion, right? Me too. And it is special…but once you learn how to make it, you’ll serve it for any occasion. And it gets the oooooh’s and aaaaah’s it deserves. I watched a video by the French Culinary Institute where they showed…
White Turkey Chili I woke this morning to rumbling thunder amidst the “chilly” Spring air which prompted me to make a steamy bowl of white turkey chili. Two kinds of beans and crisp vegetables surrounded by a light broth of smokey-sweet spicy goodness. It’s hearty, filling, and real comfort food for this lazy Saturday afternoon. The…
Pulled Pork Enchiladas The pulled pork in these enchiladas makes the dish. We made two spicy pork tenderloins the night before and planned the leftover for these enchiladas. The pork tenderloin’s we like to use are smaller, thin, and all natural. Don’t purchase the ones that are pre-seasoned or flavored as they have so much…
Carrot Cupcakes with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting These cupcakes are kept moist with pureed pears and shredded carrots while the blend of cinnamon and nutmeg adds a unique spice-cake flavor. Top it off with lemon cream cheese frosting for a sweet creamy finish. Ingredients: ¼ cup canola oil ¾ cup packed light brown sugar…
Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts Chicken breasts stuffed with a delicate blend of spinach, ham, and cheesy goodness all topped off with a zesty tomato sauce and melted cheese. Serve over a bed of thin spaghetti noodles. A glass of Cabernet is a nice accompaniment to the meal. Ingredients: 1 Tbsp olive oil 1 Tbsp Butter 1/2…
Thai Basil Chicken I was craving one of my favorite Thai dishes from a local restaurant which I haven’t had since going gluten free. I set out to re-create the dish recalling the spicy sweet sauce coating the tender chicken slices, Jalapeno peppers, broccoli flowerets and the unique flavor of fresh basil leaves that balances…
Chicken Souvlaki Souvlaki is a popular Greek sandwich consisting of grilled meats with vegetable toppings wrapped in a pita bread and topped with Tzatziki sauce. The flavors are fresh and bright with the zest of tangy lemon and garlic, the smokiness of grilled chicken, and the final drizzle of a creamy cucumber sauce and feta…
Grilled Chicken Wings Who doesn’t love chicken wings? Wings are a favorite weeknight meal in our home. They are crispy, spicy, and full of flavor. Slow roasting on the grill results in a tender wing that falls off the bone. The credit goes to Mr. Spinner, The Grill Master, and wings are one of his…
