Cheesy Lebanese Kofta and Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
Oh red pepper how I love thee and how I love finding ways to cook with you. You’re so tasty and so photogenic! I’ve had this recipe on my long mental list of “things I want to cook for the blog.” I wanted to merge my love of the red bell pepper with the flavors […]
Italian Giardiniera
The past few days have been unseasonably warm and that’s certainly fine with me. I’ve enjoyed opening the windows, going on long walks, and drives with the windows down and sunroof open. But it’s not lasting long as temps will be dropping to freezing. Boo! Two thumbs down. I’ve got Spring fever! And I think […]

Indian Shrimp Coconut Curry
If anyone knows me, they know I’m not a seafood person. Maybe it’s because I grew up in Oklahoma and Texas…. No, that’s not it. My parents eat seafood- some of it. I just never got into it. I’m sure not having an abundance of fresh seafood around me contributed something to my disinterest in […]

Easy Enchilada Sauce
Sometimes the canned stuff has it’s place and some times it does NOT- especially when it comes to enchilada sauce. For me, canned enchilada sauce is pretty much acceptable for using it in things, but not at all for enchiladas. Just my opinion. Maybe it’s because I don’t have many options near me when it […]

Spicy Ramen Noodle ‘Macaroni’ and Cheese
I had to do this. I couldn’t help myself!!! This just came to me out of nowhere, although I’m sure I’m not the first to do it. I go bonkers for mac and cheese. I love spicy. I love ramen noodles- I like the texture of them. I like simple and quick. Is anyone with […]
