Ham is my family’s meat of choice for our Christmas Eve meal. I know a lot of families do a Christmas Day feast but in my family growing up, we always did our big meal on Christmas Eve. We keep that tradition going. We like just being able to eat left overs on Christmas day and relax! […]

I really do like black beans. I usually just buy a can, and they are always a great addition to many of my meals. I just haven’t ever thought of beans being rich and flavorful…until recently. I made the most beautiful and delicious bean discovery. Delicious to the point that my 6 year old has […]

Well, this is a winner…I don’t know what else to say. Everyone in my family loved it and even though I was full, I wanted to eat more. Good thing they were already gone. I somehow managed to get delicious, fall off the bone, melt in your mouth ribs from my very own kitchen. I’m […]

  This little dish was inspired by my friend who typically makes these in the oven. Since it was beautiful out and I was calling them zucchini steaks I thought I’d grill them! I’m glad I did, they turned out fantastic! In the words of Clare’s dad, “I’d give it a 10 star rating.” I’m […]

This dressing is so great and can be used for so many things! You can use it on a classic salad, on a pasta salad (which I LOVE), on chicken as a marinade, or even just pour it on top and then bake. Salad dressings are so great that way, don’t you think? Another thing […]

Potatoes, green and red peppers, with bacon throughout, what’s not to love? I feel like breakfast casseroles are pretty forgiving. If you have the core ingredients (aka some potatoes, eggs, an onion, maybe some sort of vegetable, etc.) then you can give or take whatever you prefer. Or in most cases for me, according to […]

I had never heard of these until this this year. A friend of mine posted her recipe of her facebook page and asked someone to make it since she wouldn’t be making them this year. I, naturally, took on the challenge! I saw a comment about these treats…something to the effect that they were a […]

I am a little embarrassed to say this, but I’m going to say it anyway. I always thought that soda bread had soda water in it, and that’s why they called it soda bread. I know this is a traditional Irish recipe that goes back however many hundreds (maybe thousands) of years. No, it doesn’t make […]

Shrimp can be simply dressed to really make a statement. Cilantro, lime, roasted garlic, red pepper flakes, and a little olive oil is really all it takes! My kids actually like shrimp…which I think is kind of weird. But I’ll take it! They like plain shrimp and had been asking for it. I was all about […]
