When I think of tacos, I think of something that just melts in your mouth and makes a huge mess. My Dad used to always say, “The messier the better”. This statement seems to hold for tacos all the time. Hence, I bring to you the ultimate pork taco packed with three different sauces just …

We love steak and we don’t eat it very often. Sad, right? I think it’s sad at least. I originally wanted to make duck tacos for this recipe because duck is absolutely awesome, but I could not pass up the rib-eyes I saw staring me in the face the other day (a lot of foods …

Whether you are hosting a picnic or attending one, I’m sure you have some cooking to do. If you aren’t cooking, I’m sure you will be picking up something pre-made at your local grocery store. I’m here to stop you from doing this! You will be surprised at how easy and affordable it can be …

We love a good crab cake around here. I really think that a really great crab cake is hard to come by. They are so often made with too much bread (panko or some other binding agent) or sometimes it goes the complete other direction, and they aren’t made with enough of the “extras.” Extras …

Fettuccine carbonara: it only makes sense…perfect sense. It’s such a beautiful day, but it is certainly the calm before the storm. We are expected to get quite the whooping tomorrow, and carbonara is the perfect way to “celebrate” it. Well, in Zach’s case, carbonara is a cause of celebration. He’s strange and also an atmospheric …

So in preparation for the winter weather that is headed our way, we decided we would soak up as much “grill time” as humanly possible. It’s a good thing I planted all those veggies and herbs. I’m sure they will just love the snow! Just kidding, I promise to bring them inside. Good thing I …
