Melon Parisienne Soup and a Giveaway!
I was recently contacted to review the new Greenmarket to Gotham recipe journal by Chef Portale, and I have to say I’m very impressed. Being a city girl I do appreciate the farmers market rather then getting everything from the store. What’s cooler then talking to the...
Chicken and Green Chili Pasta
I think the only thing I would do differently is not layer the dish instead mix it all together and then top it with cheese. We did add some extra seasoning while we ate it, but it’s a simple and easy dish to adjust to your level of heat. Chicken and Green Chili Pasta...
Bang Bang Chicken Kabobs
You’ll want to set aside some of the marinade to brush on after the chicken comes off the grill otherwise you can’t taste it. Overall we liked the dish and it’s easy to prep ahead of time. Bang Bang Chicken Kabobs (Adapted from CenterCutCook.com) Printer Friendly...
Cream Cheese Pie Filling
One thing I love to serve at the holidays or for parties is this super easy cream cheese pie filling. Every year my brother and I would just sit there and eat the filling by itself and tell my grandmother not to waste time making a pie shell. You can serve it as one...
P. F. Chang’s Mongolian Beef
One thing we love to make is Mongolian beef. I get to use up some of our steer meat in the freezer and add as much spice as we like to it. This recipe is really easy to make and seems to be better in flavor then some of the others I’ve tried. I didn’t have any ginger...
Eggs Benedict Casserole
I can’t wait to make this again when we have family stay with us over the holiday’s. This is super easy and taste just like the eggs benedict without all the extra work of making them individually. Even the leftovers tasted really good. Hubby wants me to try bacon...
Green Chile and Rice Casserole
I loved this as a side dish with some refried beans for the enchilada dish I made. Instead of layering the ingredients I mixed them all together and since I couldn’t taste the green chilies to much I mixed in an extra can. Hope you have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!...
Fire Cracker Chicken Skewers with a Cooling Lime Cream Sauce
I originally made this dish for 4th of July and somehow forgot to post it. We LOVED the marinade sauce and we use it for everything now even dipping french fries in it. The seasoning coating I thought was a little much, but hubby loved it. Can’t wait to make this on...
Beer Chicken Green Chile Enchiladas
The flavor of these enchiladas where really good. I had an issue with the chile pods cooking due to the fact that I tried to short cut it by using a roasted chicken that was already cooked. Lesson learned and I’ll stick to the recipe next time. Beer Chicken Green...
Brown Butter Rum Cannoli
Lil man turned 6 months old last week! I can’t get over how time has just flown by so far. We are loving every minute of watching him grow and do new things all the time. In true Italian fashion I decided to celebrate his half birthday Italian style with a cannoli. I...
Puppy Peanut Butter Balls
My little girl turned 6 this month! She’s our first child and a big sister this year. She’s not a fan of the candles, but she sucked it up for a quick picture. These treats are really easy to make, but they do make a mess and are crumbly when they eat them. I just put...
Two ingredient Lemon Bars
Anyone that knows me will know that I’m obsessed with lemon bars. When I saw this recipe I figured it couldn’t get any easier then these. Well, I was really disappointed with this. The flavor to me was there it was the texture that I didn’t care for. I even baked it...
