TACO Tuesday FUN
It is TACO Tuesday!! I have the perfect recipe for you that is so easy and so yummy you will be making these for the next several TACO Tuesday’s!! Bakes Tacos….let me tell you….they are AMAZING!! TONS of flavor!! First, you start with the ground beef. For these tacos I kept it super simple but don’t worry it is still loaded with tons of flavor from the taco seasoning. You can use packaged or homemade, like this one. I prefer the homemade version as you can add a little spice if you want or make it super mild, I like having options. If you don’t want to use ground beef…

Dinner Party? No problem
Have you ever been with a group of friends or family and decided to have a little dinner party last minute? Well that happened to me a few weeks back. I was visiting with my God parents and my sis-in-law and we decided to have dinner all together. I had already planned on having my weeknight rib roast so it was no problem to add a few more to the table. A dinner for everyone Now I know rib roast is not something you normally make for a quick weeknight dinner, but my dad found it on sale and picked up 2 bone-in rib roasts. One had 2 bones…

Weeknight Grilling Goodness
I am all about the grill in the summer. I will do anything to not have the oven on heating up the house. So whether it is pork, steak or chicken I want it cooked on the grill as often as possible. I love it even more if the sides can be cooked on the grill as well. With this Grilled Veggie recipe, my kitchen may get a 3 month break. SO many options As I was walking through the farmers market a few weekends ago I was blown away by all the great produce. There was summer squash, zucchini, baby eggplants, peppers, onions…and so much more. I couldn’t pick…

A whole new way to Fajita
I could literally have a fajita, of some sort, for every singe meal. Yes for breakfast, lunch and dinner and maybe even a snack. As much as I love fajitas, sometimes I just don’t want to take the time to fix them…well that is until now. Peppers and Onion…OH YEAH! One of my favorite parts of any fajitas are the peppers and onions. I just love the little charred bits and the hint of sweetness and a little spice in each bite. Even better they add a ton of flavor to the meat, in this case chicken, which makes them a must have in all my fajita dishes. Careful…

One Pot of Cheesy Yummy
I love food…that is no secret. I love everything from tacos to osso bucco to chili and BBQ (I do live in Texas). One thing I am always in the mood for though is pasta and if it is cheesy pasta that is even better. Branching out a bit… A few weeks a go I was with my mom and we went to one of our favorite lunch places, Cafe Express. Normally I get their roasted vegetable tart but that day I really wanted pasta so I went with their pasta alfredo. I really loved it as it was a little different than my mortal go to alfredo. It…

Summer is in full swing and that means quick and easy lunches are a must. Something that is yummy, delicious and perfect for a quick bite in between swimming and a trip to the park…I love summer!

I also love a fancier version with apple, cranberries and walnuts… but my favorite chicken salad is this Pesto Chicken Salad. It is light but still full of flavor. I use pulled rotisserie chicken. I love how easy it is but also the flavor. Even better at my local grocery store…

A steakhouse night at home in no time
It is no secret that I love going to a nice steakhouse for a wonderful dinner, but it is even better when you can everything you love at home. ANYTIME you want!! Bringing the steak home To cook a nice steak dinner at home I like to go with a nice strip steak or a filet. I am a no bone steak kinda girl…but my rancher brother (& the other one too) is all about a bone in ribs eye. It is all up to you, just adjust cooking time as needed for thickness and desired doneness. To be rare or not? How do you like your steak cooked?…
