Brady and I were watching the show “Iron Chef” on Food Network and we saw the challenging chef use pieces of cedar paper to bbq salmon. We ended up picking some of this paper up in the barbecue section of our local home improvement store. Brady made salmon a few nights later and wrapped it in [...]

THE OFFICIAL SUPER BOWL COUNTDOWN: 4 days (including today)!!! Unfortunately for us (but fortunately for our backyard plants) I am pretty sure it will be raining in my own hometown on Super Bowl day.

It is RAINING so hard here today! I can’t even believe it. Luckily I have my trusty umbrella to assist me while needing to be outside.

This is the recipe for meatballs that I have been using since I first started cooking. I have changed certain things about the recipe over the years, so you should be assured that they are delicious! It’s great because you bake the meatballs and so they really stay moist, especially when you put them in [...]

This is a really fabulous recipe! We served our tacos with our Habanero & Avocado Salsa, lime wedges, chopped fresh cilantro, chopped red onion, and purple cabbage for toppings. DELICIOUS!!! This wet rub would work well for chicken, steak, pork or fish.
Note: This particular rub is called a “wet rub” because it is combined with [...]

This creamy sauce is amazingly delicious. We will normally use it on steaks or chicken, but is actually really versatile and could be used in any way that you see fit. My friend Crystal requested some recipes for gorgonzola chicken so I figured I would post this sauce recipe and then do some experimenting with [...]

Well, our experiment quickly changed direction when I realized that there wasn’t any pesto on sale at the grocery store. Also, we have to make a dip tonight for a potluck at Brady’s work tomorrow that involves roasted red bell pepper, olives and basil so we figured we would have some extra to use for [...]
