I had a friend who told me she never had tacos for dinner while she was growing up. Her mother always made elegant meals. You know the kind of meals I’m talking about….with the white napkins, fine china and all the silverware. While I was envious of the Mrs. Cleaver type, I look back now and realize, sometimes you … [Read more…]
Spring fever is a wonderful thing! Just makes you want to eat something light and healthy, like this heavenly lemon pepper chicken. There is something surprisingly refreshing about lemons, and I wanted tonight’s dinner to be just that…a spring-inspired tasty meal. This recipe also has a bit of honey, making it even more irresistible. But wait, you … [Read more…]
Last weekend we went out for dinner, Ryan ordered chicken tenders. The plate was piled so high that he couldn’t eat them all. I, on the other hand, ordered the 500 calorie grilled chicken and shrimp, which left me drooling over Ryan’s dinner. So much so, that I’ve been thinking about chicken tenders all week. … [Read more…]
My husband has been awaiting this post. What’s so remarkable is, not the ingredients, but the technique of cooking. It’s the technique that provides the awesome flavor. Usually I think a recipe is all about the spices or ingredients, but in this case, it’s the roasting that provides such an easy, flavorful meal. The key is a high blast of heat to … [Read more…]
This is one of my recipes that’s on my dinner menu rotations. I make it at least once a month, and have actually been making it for years. My recipe is a little stained and grease-splattered, but that’s when you know you got a keeper. The original recipe was for chicken, but I adapt to … [Read more…]
I’ve always been in search of a good turkey burger. Tried many variations and recipes, but have never hit on one that said, Wow!,…until now. My husband was never a fan of turkey burgers. He never liked the dry, white patty that I always tried to pass off as part of our healthy lifestyle. Well, … [Read more…]
We love to grill all year round. But sometimes its just easier to pull out the indoor grill, especially for this Pesto Grilled Chicken. I use the thin cut breasts, and when you slap them on the grill, it only takes a few minutes before you can slap them on the table. Sometimes during the work … [Read more…]
My husband found this recipe when we were on Weight Watchers. I love it because it’s not only healthy and lower in fat, it’s quick to make, and down-right delicious. Who could ask for anything more…right? When we go to the beach we often eat a few meals in, and this one is always on the … [Read more…]
The classics stand the test of time. Some things just can’t be beat…like a classic car, a classic book or a classic movie. This recipe is comforting and has satisfied my entire family time after time…a true classic indeed. It was given to me right after we were married over twenty years ago. My husband got … [Read more…]
I like this recipe because I usually have all the ingredients on hand. It’s simple to assemble, but it tastes like you spent hours! I discovered that Greek yogurt is a nice staple to have on hand. It can be used in so many recipes, and makes a good substitute for fattening sour cream (and I … [Read more…]
