It is hard for me to convey just how spectacular the combination of these flavors are. The only thing I have been able to come up with is, thats so good, you will want to eat it even when you are pregnant and so sick the though of a sip of water…
Simple Grilled Venison Burgers
Oh my stars. It is a very good thing that you are behind your computer/iPad/iPhone device and not sitting next to me as I type this because I would embarrass my self my drooling in front of you. Buuuuuurgeeeeeers are gooooooooood. A good friend of mine back in IL shared some venison…
Cucumber Stackers & Packing Kitchen Essentials
Yes, I am sharing a recipe of sorts, but that isn’t what this blog post is really about. This blog post is about two things: The magic of what you can come up with when faced with limited kitchen utensils, and what you should pack so that you at least have those…
Grilled Cheese Panini Sticks
Technically, I don’t know that I can call these ‘grilled’ cheese panini sticks, as they are not on a griddle, but are in fact, made on a panini maker. In any case, this is what my family has decided to name them after eating them over and over the last few weeks….

Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
As Thanksgiving, the holiday of food, approaches, everyone is looking for interesting/original/uncomplicated items to add to the menu. But wouldn’t it be nice if the new recipe you tried was so easy and so delicious, that you just ended up making it all the time? I think that would be a beautiful…
Spicy Meat & Cheese Roll-Ups: Back to School Post #5
One of my favorite things about food are the associations that you make with it. A certain dish or meal that makes you think of a time or place in your life, triggering a memory. I love that. This is one of those foods for me. Years ago, while catering with two…
Grilled Steak W/Balsamic Drizzle & Bleu Cheese
Years ago-and I just realized how many posts I begin with those words-I watched Giada make something similar to this recipe. I like my steak straight up and pure; grilled with just salt and pepper, but every once in awhile, I recognize that change might be good. I try to embrace change…
Mediterranean Quinoa Salad
There are so many things I love about this dish, that I just…like…I can’t even deal. This might sound weird, but the fact that I finished this recipe just in time for summer is really the best part. Because now I, and of course you, can enjoy it all. season. long. *sigh*…
Loaded Black Bean Quesadillas
Greetings! Sorry I have been MIA for a week! I have been cooking and baking up a storm but it has been mostly new recipes and experiments. We were out of the state for several days and I literally didn’t even have time to sleep, let alone get any blogging done. Our…
Upside-Down Sausage & Mushroom Pizza Casserole
Quite simply, sometimes a recipe will just surprise you. Much like the skinny jean craze. I didn’t see that coming. Anyway, I was watching Food Network about a million years ago, and saw Robin Miller make a version of this dish. What I liked about it was that it used a few shortcuts…
Chicken Tamale Casserole
I never really noticed how unflattering casseroles are until I started photographing them. Can I have a show of hands please? Who else has this problem? Anyone? In spite of that, this recipe is just too good. I absolutely have to share it with you guys! In these pictures, it is hard…
Caramelized Onion Crostini
A little over a week ago I posted a How To recipe for Caramelized Onions and promised to post an additional recipe using them. Well, I wasn’t fibbing! And I have even more ideas-ideas up the wahzoo!-so brace yourself for a sweet onion overload. Something on the list below has got to…
Open Faced Tuna Melt
Hi all! Just a quick post to clue you in to one of my most favorite comfort foods. Gaze upon the Open Faced Tuna Melt. Now, for any of you reading this who happen to be my siblings, I realize you may think of this dish as unremarkable. We did, after all,…
Vegetable Enchiladas
As I was making this dish, it occurred to me just how often I use black beans. I was writing this blog post in my head while I was cooking, something I do quite a bit in the kitchen, and I was kind of trying to pick an approach. Generally, I have…
