Ever on the quest for new recipes, I was flipping through my cookbook Southern Living: 30 Years of Our Best Recipes and came up with the following meal: Balsamic marinated chicken with beer rice and sugared carrots. The balsamic chicken browned beautifully while...
Pressed hot ham & cheese sandwiches – the ghetto way
We decided to have Media Noche the other night, but unfortunately I’m a dork and forgot to put half the ingredients in the sandwiches before we started pressing them. They still turned out awesome (partially in thanks to some REALLY good kettle chips which I’m going...
Healthy blueberry muffins
I’ve mentioned the muffin baking craze I’ve been on these past months but I’m always on the look out for recipes that are not loaded with sugar and big chunks of chocolate. Sure they taste awesome but I send them to work in the morning with Stefan and he doesn’t need...
Chicken & gravy with biscuits – Ultimate comfort food
Comfort food. There’s something special about it and everyone has their own special somethings that can just make the darkest days seem bright. We could have used a bit more comfort food around here the last few days. And now that Stefan is finally home again and...
Ham & Cheese Breakfast Muffins
I’ve been trying to come up with new and interesting things for Stefan to take to work for breakfast, and for us to have on the weekends before we start on our projects. I thought these might be an good change from the fruit based muffins and breads I have been making...
Chocolate Banana Mocha Muffins
These have become the new favorite muffin in the house. They are insanely good. Really moist and full of flavor. And when you get a chocolate chunk – YUM! If you have a food processor, you will find these very easy to make. Perhaps too easy. I tell myself they’re at...
Monday Meal Planning: We aren’t bikers but we love how they cook
I've been trying meal planning for maybe a year now. The concept isn't hard: sit down once a week, every two weeks, once a month (whatever works best for you) and write down a bunch of recipes. The recipes can be new, old, something you discovered...whatever...
Tex-Mex Chicken Tequila
I made this recipe a few weeks ago and froze half of the sauce. It tastes very similar to the Cajun Chicken Pasta we love to eat since it has the same basic ingredients, but I think with fresh jalepenos from our own garden this could be a really great dish. It’s just...
I have to say it was a good day
I'm not sure where the sun disappeared to today. The forecast was calling for a nice spring day with temps in the low 60's (15°C.) It was about 50 and overcast instead, but at least there was no rain. We got the day started with a trip to Hagebau, the little home...
Rice with broccoli & carrots recipe – An aspiring chef
While my mom was visiting us here in Germany, she reminded me about something I used to make all the time when I was in high school. My interest in cooking was really starting to blossom then, although I still didn’t really get into cooking until we moved over here –...
