This is my go-to meal at any Mexican restaurant. I do not like them heavily breaded and fried but rather grilled or lightly fried. This light meal reminds me of hot Texas summers and nothing washes it all down better than a cool margarita. Grilled Fish TacosRecipe Source: Barbeque Nation 2 teaspoons ground ancho chili…

Indian Cooking Class – Part I
Two gals from church have been wanting me to teach them how to prepare an Indian meal. They were relentless in their persistence and yesterday we finally held our class.:) Between the three of us, it took four and half hours to prepare the meal. Indian food is delicious but certainly is time consuming! Here…
Chicken Tacos
I’ve been accused of having recipes that are too difficult and not easy enough to prepare in a weeknight. Who, moi? Well, you complained and I listened. These chicken tacos have three ingredients and uses a crockpot…it doesn’t get any easier. You can always adjust the spice level by adding chili pepper or some chipotle…
Valentines Day Supper
I don’t know if it is because we are now parents or the fact that we live in a town where we don’t have many people to call upon for babysitting but it seems like the last couple of years have been very low key for us for Valentines Day. Gone are the days of…
Birthday Party Fare
My son turned two a few weeks ago and we had a small party for him at the house. We served a small lunch and cake for dessert. I got the recipe for these hamburger sliders from Jessica Seinfeld’s cookbook, Deceptively Delicious. The burgers were very moist and delicious! We served them along with these…
My Favorite Pot Roast
I found this recipe in my Everyday Food magazine and I’ll never use another recipe again. It is completely easy and we love the gravy that is included. We usually have this alongside mashed potatoes, green beans and homemade rolls. Slow-Cooker Pot RoastRecipe Courtesy of Everyday Food Magazine Serves 8 1 tablespoon cornstarch 8 medium…
Friday Night Supper
I hosted a few ladies from church this past Friday night for a womens ministry event. Instead of opting for having all of us meet at a restaurant, they met at my house for dinner. I made pork roast and potatoes and the other ladies brought the side dishes and dessert. This is the easiest…
Guest Post: Ravioli Lasagna
Happy New Year! It’s been a while since I’ve posted a recipe because I was enjoying two glorious weeks at home with family. While there, I enjoyed authentic Indian food courtesy of my mom, great Kansas City barbeque, and unique ethnic cuisine. I loved having the options available and it was great not to have…
Arroz con Pollo
Every culture seems to have its own variation on a chicken and rice dish. The Spanish have paella, Indians have biriyani and there is the ever popular chicken and rice casserole with condensed soup and cheese that Americans enjoy (not a fan of that, by the way). I realize this recipe is not authentic to…
Roast Chicken
This meal requires some preparation but well worth it. Not to mention the smell of roasting chicken is wonderful as it permeates through the kitchen.Perfect Roast ChickenRecipe Courtesy of Ina Gartennocoupons 1 (5 to 6 pound) roasting chicken Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 large bunch fresh thyme, plus 20 sprigs 1 lemon, halved…
