Canarian Potatoes (Papas Arrugadas) with Mojo Rojo Sauce
These little potatoes rocked my taste buds! Why wouldn’t they? I mean, salty potatoes with a spicy pepper and olive oil sauce? So dang good! These papas originate from the Canary Islands, and I’ll be honest, I’m not sure these are truly authentic. I’ve never been to the Canary Islands nor have I had […]
Creamy Sriracha Noodles with Turkey and Mushrooms
Easy weeknight dinner comin’ atchya!

Puff Pastry Baklava
I’m going through a couple of “obsessions.” The first is my discovery of puff pastry. As I mentioned in the Cheesy Lebanese Kofta Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers post, I’m pretty much the last person to the whatever’s the “latest thing” party.

Tandoori Sriracha Chicken Skewers
Spicy sriracha sauce and yogurt marinade with zesty sweet ginger paste and Indian spices. Raise your hand if you like chicken skewers! I have both hands up! Plain chicken can get a little boring, so this is a no-fuss way to give some major “whoa” flavor to your bird. This recipe can’t really get any […]
Peanut Butter and Banana “Elvis” Hummus
Peanut Butter and Banana Hummus makes one super amazing, tasty sandwich! Yes, sir-eee it does! Elvis apparently loved peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Oh, and make that fried….. add a few slices of crispy bacon while you’re at it. I’ve never personally made the King of Rock-n-Roll’s beloved sandwich quite like that, but I can […]
