Instant Pot Shredded Mojo Pork
This meal is simple ingredients, that when combined together make for a super scrumptious meal. We're pressure cooking this pork roast with citrus juices and some lots of garlic, and a touch of smoky flavor from the ground cumin. This combo will really flavor up the pork. Once it's finished in the Instant Pot, you can shred the pork meat into the sauce and serve over rice … [Read more...]
Instant Pot Garlic Parmesan Chicken
This is a fantastic and easy to cook dinner in your Instant Pot. It's a "2-phase" kind of recipe because we need the chicken to have some time alone to cook, as it takes much longer than the baby potatoes. If you added the baby potatoes at the beginning of the pressure cooking cycle with the chicken, they would be completely overcooked into mush. You don't want that. The … [Read more...]
Hashbrown Egg Casserole
I love holiday mornings! I love the laziness, I love the laughter and I love the fun. Whether it's Thanksgiving, or Christmas, or Easter, or whatever other holiday, I love to serve a late breakfast/brunch with a delicious egg casserole. I love these specifically because they can be made the day before and they get better with "age." And they are an easy option for holiday … [Read more...]
Slow Cooker Creamy Taco Soup
Y'all. This. This is a fabulous soup. It's your basic taco soup...with a little extra taco seasoning and a swirl of sour cream right before you serve it! It needs more taco seasoning because the sour cream tames it down a little. So we're adding a touch more than if it didn't have the sour cream. Balance. It's all about the creamy-spicy balance. Let … [Read more...]

Like … [Read more...]

It's a lovely and light "meat and potatoes" meal that will tempt all the palates at your table. You can use a cooking wine or dry red wine for this roast. And please...please...please...pretty please...with … [Read more...]

Grilled Cajun Salmon
Yes, salmon is expensive. It's a treat for our family and I'm trying to make it more and more, as fish is so healthy and the omegas and good fats do the body good. All of my boys adore salmon - partly because it's a treat and partly because I know how to doctor it well. ;) This is well doctored and perfectly grilled salmon! (It's not at all as spicy as it looks...that red … [Read more...]
