This has easily become one of my husband’s favorite meals…I think he really loves the sweetness of it but it’s not overpowering. Mackenzie definitely can’t get enough of it either — but she’s a little rice monster anyway so she’ll eat anything that has rice in it....
This turned out quite well despite me being a bit concerned about it during the cooking process. If you don’t have flavorful tomatoes, it’s just not the same but hubby said it tasted very similar to an arrabiata he eats often at one of his favorite restaurants, except...
A couple years ago, I got a fantastic collection of recipes from Southern Living called Southern Living’s 30 Years of Our Best Recipes as a gift from my mom. I have only tried one meal from it so far which was fantastic, but I decided to use a few more recipes from it...
So I was thinking about various gadgets that are great to have in your kitchen and came down the list to the tortilla press. I know for many this would be an absolute waste, but we eat a lot of flour tortillas here (almost weekly taco nights) and at about 25 cents a...
As the name suggests, this dish has a sweet side to it with a big kick of spice for those who like it hot. One could pair it with white rice or give our version a try – left-over penne noodles thrown in the pan once everything was cooked. I think we will definitely...
On its own, this dish is a little bit bland. But we were trying to find a dish similar to what they serve in Miami at a restaurant called Pollo Tropical. This is not it but it was still really good. A much more Mexican flair than I expected. The original recipe calls...
I’m not sure I’ll try this recipe again. The roast was extremely dry so were were very thankful for the gravy. The onions cooked way down and were a bit too mushy for my liking in the end but they did pick up the wine flavor which was nice. I made some modifications...
Successfully not posted anything about the meals...doh! But I do have a pretty good excuse. Stefan and I have been quite under the weather for the past week. And although couch-locked most of the time because we were just too tired to move from the cold that Stefan...
This may look like your ordinary lasagna – but don’t be confused. It’s faster, easier and to some, maybe even tastier! We tried the Easy Italian Pasta Bake last week and thought it was awesome although it was very bland. In its defense, I imagine they leave out all...
We actually tried the recipe quite a while ago but I’m trying to turn over a new leaf or something so I figured I would finally post about it. Red Pepper Salmon Pasta seems like a bit of a strange combo when you read it but it actually turned out quite good. I used...
