Green Bean and Avocado Summer Salads
Pasta and greens have to be one of my favorite combinations in the world. Toss them with avocado, green beans and some dried fruit, and you have yourself a real winner. I was certainly in need of a big salad this week after all of that pulled pork (which by the way, there is […]
Grilled Corn on the Cob with Herb Butter
Well I lied. I decided to take a break from pulled pork today. Can you tell I’m getting sick of it yet? Well, I am. Last night I needed a night off from the stuff, so I made Zach and I fresh green bean salads and corn on the cob. Why you ask? Because […]
Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese
So it begins. I may have mentioned yesterday that I slow-cooked a pork shoulder roast on Sunday, so we will officially be eating pork for the next week. I mean there’s only two of us and this roast was over 7 pounds! It’s really horrible of me to complain though. The pork came out […]
“On the Grill” Potatoes and Veggies
Continuing on with all of the great recipes I love on the grill, we decided to make roasted potatoes on the grill last night. I get bored with just potatoes though, so we threw some other “yummies” into the mix as well. Squash is one of those summertime veggies that I just can’t get […]
“Herbaceous” Chicken Salad Sandwiches
I’m on quite the “picnic” theme here lately. Not that I’m complaining. I love picnic food, and the fact that the weather has been so superbly beautiful, it has me wanting to make more and more BBQ-style food. I’m sure I will get sick of it sooner or later; and once September rolls around, […]
Sweet and Savory Baked Beans
Baked beans have certainly grown on me over time. When I was small, I would do everything in my power to not touch the stuff, but with age I gained some wisdom along the way; and I finally discovered the beauty that is the baked bean. I love love love this recipe, and I’m […]
Chicken Dogs with Watermelon Salsa
Yes, I made it back safe and sound from the East coast. Thank you so much for asking! It was such a great visit, but I’m also happy to be getting back into the groove of things! Also, I missed you all like crazy! … and Cilantro. I really, really missed Cilantro (and Zach […]
Chili Rubbed Pork Tenderloin with Spicy Mango Salsa
Hi everyone! It’s been so long! Really, it has been way too long. I’m so sorry for my absence these past two weeks. Everything has been out of control crazy. I am currently visiting family in NJ, but I haven’t forgotten about all of you. As you may have noticed, I delegated some tasks […]
Steak Tacos with Avocado & Cucumber Salsa
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 […]
