Marinated Grilled Lemon Rosemary Chicken

This was the entrée for my Impromptu Dinner Party. The sun awakens from a restful slumber and shines its golden rays of light through the herbs growing in my kitchen window.  About a month ago, Brent’s mom gave me basil and a parsley plant because she felt our kitchen needed to be filled with some [...]

Impromptu Dinner Party: Brent & Ty Take Over

After returning home from a wonderful trip in Toronto, the last thing I wanted to do was eat in yet another restaurant.  I craved a home cooked meal and the comfort of relaxing in the backyard, without the annoyance of servers asking us if we were American based on what we ordered.  While trying to [...]

Jumbo Chicken Meatballs

I opened the refrigerator door to be greeted by a fresh package of ground chicken that was originally intended for homemade pot stickers.   However, after a long day of super important meetings, the last thing my caveman fingers wanted to do was pleat hundreds of delicate rice paper wrappers.  I wanted an easy meal that [...]

Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Super Bowl parties are not about executing culinary greatness.  They’re about football, beer, commercials, and whatever you can shove in your face.  I can’t tell you how much crap I got for posting a recipe that called for precooked meatballs, as I did with the Sweet BBQ Meatballs post.  I believe the phrase was, “Oh [...]

Have you ever received one of those gifts that you knew had good intentions, but secretly wondered the real meaning behind them? Like the time you received a big basket of hair care products for dry and damaged hair. Or the time a distant relative spent months knitting you a special sweater. Only to find [...]

Orange BBQ Shredded Chicken Sandwich

This post is going to be short, sweet and savory.  I love really good barbeque.  There’s a strange feeling of satisfaction when I lick the tangy sauce from my fingers just after taking an enormous bite.  The challenge with great barbeque is it takes time…lots of time to get it just right. Well, with a [...]

Chicken and Dumplings for Two

When I decided to buy a few goldfish several years back, I thought it would be a breeze. To make things even easier, I automated the feeding process by buying an electric feeder that easily clamped to the side of the tank. It was a brilliant invention that I thought would be the best $10 [...]

Cheesy Chicken and Spinach Stuffed Shells

Ever have one of those weeks when you wished you could have something prepared in advance to be baked later?  Well if your week is as busy as mine, then this recipe is a perfect option.  The entire pan can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.  [...]
