Holy explosion of taste! There's just something about sweet relish that is special. But there's something about homemade sweet relish that is even more special. Well, maybe I should call this a (semi)homemade relish...because it calls for sweet pickles and I didn't can it or make it completely from scratch. But the relish isn't out of a prepared relish jar, so... (Semi) … [Read more...]

Grilled Ground Chicken Burgers
Hello gorgeous. Not only is this chicken burger gorgeous to look at, it's got a gorgeous taste too. (Can you use the word gorgeous to describe how something tastes??? I think so. Don't you.)

Grilled Jalapeño Poppers
Oh, I've had baked jalapeno poppers a thousand times. (Well, maybe not a thousand, but a LOT.) They are a popular, spicy appetizer here in San Antonio and I love them dearly.

Grilled BBQ Chicken Quesadillas
If you've seen any of my other BBQ Chicken recipes in the past, you probably know that I have a slight obsession with the BBQ Chicken Pizza from California Pizza Kitchen.

(At least my … [Read more...]
