Prep time / Cook time - too damn long! My husband sends me links to all sorts of recipes he wants me to make. Mostly I ignore them, or put them in the back of my mind, soon to be forgotten or replaced by something else. I finally decided to [...]
Another recipe I altered to be more to my liking. But ultimately just a relatively quick dinner to make after a long day that pleases everyone and usually leaves a few leftovers. Prep time - 10 minutes / Cook time - 30 minutes Kosher salt 1 medium onion [...]
My husband wishes he could eat potatoes in some form for every meal, and he loves sandwiches. So for Father's Day this year, I invented this- a breakfast sandwich that manages to squeeze hash browns into the layers for a true "everything except the kitchen sink" approach. If I had some bacon when I [...]
This meatloaf has become the preferred version in our house. Nothing wrong with the tried and true original, but there's something satisfying about starting this early in the day and either coming home to a delicious smell (pre-Covid) or enjoying the scent as it fills the house while I'm on work Zoom calls. It's [...]
When I found this recipe online, I knew I would need to alter it to be more in line with my family's taste buds. I reduced the amount of mustard to mellow it out and removed some ingredients altogether. Now it's one of our favorite dishes, especially in the cooler months. Prep [...]
Cheeze-its are pretty good by themselves, but when you make them this way they'll disappear faster than ever. I usually make a double batch (just double the recipe here) to make sure everyone gets a few handfuls. This is an especially great thing to bring to a potluck or have on hand for watching [...]
When we order Chipotle, my daughter gets a bowl of just rice and meat. But Chioptle still charges the same as if it has every ingredient in the bowl. Not worth it! I figured I could do better for cheaper and sneak a veggie in there as a bonus. This recipe is the result [...]
No real story with this one, just a new thing we added to the dinner rotation. Next time, I would probably substitute egg noodles for the orzo so each bite could be a combination of the meat, sauce and pasta. Orzo made that tough. Prep time - 15 minutes / Cook time [...]
Skirt steak is a hit or miss kind of dish. Often times the meat comes out chewy and not tender. It can be a workout for your jaw to make it through your serving. But I've found that by using this marinade, and a heaping helping of time, this version of skirt steak is [...]
Nothing spectacular or revolutionary here, just a reminder that when you have some ham, a few eggs and some random vegetables you like, you have everything you need for breakfast!
