Ants on a Tree
“Ants on a Tree.” Sure, I’ll try it. And glad we did! YUM! This is a spicy/savory fried pork dish that’s Szechuan in origin but I’ll admit I totally had my way with it! Threw in a little of this, and a little of that. I think the important flavors here (aside from pork & […]

Mussels and Shrimp in Wine Sauce
So, I’ve been doing a lot of new things lately. Cooking new recipes, trying new ingredients, making new friends, finding new blogs, and yesterday, I actually joined Twitter. It was a slow day at the office, what can I say? I’ll admit I haven’t been too into Twitter since it came on the scene. However, […]

To be honest, I’ve never really eaten figs before. Sure I’ve had fig newtons, and even figs on pizza. But I’d never popped a whole fresh fig into my mouth as a snack. But I’m glad that’s changed now! I’ve been wanting to try a fig appetizer and I’ve seen lots that use goat cheese […]

Moroccan Lamb Salad
I’m so sad I waited almost an entire year to try this recipe. The same issue of Real Simple that featured the Roast Chicken and Arugula Salad recipe as part of a collection of hearty salads, also featured this recipe for Moroccan Lamb Salad with Carrots and Mint. There are a couple reasons I’ve breezed […]

Quick Pantry Tuna Burger
Last night was one of those nights where I seriously didn’t feel inspired to make anything and there was legit nothing left in the pantry or fridge. We’d already had pasta with freezer meatballs the night before, which is our normal go-to staple. But we had to go grocery shopping, and needed to eat something […]

Thai Noodles with Chicken
Last week I noticed a few Thai recipes floating around the internet and since I already had a rotisserie chicken and ingredients for a peanut sauce, I figured why not pick up some pad thai noodles and go from there? I’ve seen a few recipes that pair peanut sauce with lime and cilantro and thought […]

Tarragon Chicken Sandwiches
I absolutely love this recipe. Mom always made it in the summer with Tarragon fresh from the garden, so when I was home last weekend I cut a few branches with exactly that idea in mind. I love this on fresh croissants, or buttery pastry rolls from our local bakery or farmer’s market. It’s so […]

Chris and I are lucky that we both have moms that have fed us well our whole lives. Chris swears his mom makes the best brownies ever, and in college I remember his care packages being some of the best I’ve seen. This weekend she sent us home with the makings for Strawberry Shortcake for […]

Roast Chicken and Arugula Salad
Well it’s been a long weekend of driving! Chris and I went home to CNY for his cousin’s wedding and although it was a quick trip, it’s always nice to go home. After all that banquet food, wine, and beer, we needed a quick, easy supper that’s tasty, light, and healthy! Really, it doesn’t get […]

Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bakes
No Bake cookies are those special kind of cookies that you can have a craving for, and satisfy that craving within minutes. We usually make buckeyes around Christmas time, and these oatmeal ones are a good cookie for the summer, when you don’t want to turn on your oven. Not to mention that they’re both […]
