Becky’s Potatoes
One of my best friends makes the most amazing potatoes over the grill! They are really simple and can be made in the oven too, by just combining a few ingredients. I’ve made them a few times since having them at her house and they come out yummy every time! Becky’s...
Lobster Risotto
Happy Labor Day!! This year we celebrated our 15 year wedding anniversary! It’s been a wild ride with plenty of ups and downs, but we’re making it! Here’s a fancy little dinner in honor of a fancy occasion (back in June because I forgot to post it!). It’s all come...

Italian Chicken
School is about to start and I’ve been trying out some dishes I can prep ahead of time and then pop in the oven and poof it’s ready. This one is really easy and I loved it. It was too much artichokes for hubby, but super easy to swap out and do green beans or whatever...

Having a good sauce on hand can elevate any quick dinner and make it extra special. At the end of the recipe there’s some variations to make it suitable for what you need. I just used a frozen parmesan breaded cod and it really cut my cooking time down with less to...
Easy Vietnamese Pho Noodle Soup
We love pho, but I’ve never made it at home. Mostly because I thought there was probably 50 ingredients in it and it takes 3 days to make! I’m just exaggerating, but I was intimidated. I did mess the dish up a little. I just put the whole package of noodles in and it...

We couldn’t get enough of these and the sauce is really easy to adjust to your liking of heat. For sure adding in my rotation of favorites! Thai Pineapple Peanut Satay Chicken (Adapted from Carlsbad Cravings) Printer Friendly Version 2 pounds...
Apple Pie Danish

Tuna Steak Marinade
People often ask what my main go to dinners are when I’m in a hurry. Seared tuna steaks are one of those meals. Mostly because I can cook them from a frozen state and whip up some instant mashed potatoes to with it. I liked this marinade and it held it’s flavor on the...
Spicy Beef Satay
Most of the time I love meat on the stick, but sometimes you just have to change up the recipe a little and make it practical. I had leftover burger buns and decided to make this beef satay into a burger instead of pretty on a stick like the original post said to do -...
Mojito jello shots
Summer is coming to an end and I’m really sad about it, even if it’s still 100 degrees in Texas! I’m ready for Fall and excited about all the new things happening this year. More details to come! We really enjoy mojitos and these shots are spot on. They are a little...
