Shrimp Tacos with Jalapeno Slaw

Shrimp Tacos with Jalapeno Slaw

    Right now, in my mind, I am on vacation. I am not actually on vacation, I am somewhere towards the beginning of what will eventually turn into the busiest, most stressful, and exhausting month of my life. The month of May has now been dubbed Hell Month. Do you ever have one of those months? Where you just stare at your calendar in disbelief and wonder how all of this got ...

Chinese Beef Lettuce Cups

Chinese Beef Lettuce Cups

My guilty pleasure is Asian cuisine. More specifically, Chinese takeout. Back when we lived in Atlanta, I kept the local Chinese restaurant very busy, especially after the twins were born. I ordered so often that the delivery guy began to comment on how big the kids were getting and would notice when I didn't call in an order for a while. They even recognized my voice when I ...

Tex Mex Tortilla Salad

Tex Mex Tortilla Salad

It seems I have gone AWOL from this poor little blog lately. These things happen. For the last month, we have been hopping from one activity to another. Dance and T-Ball on Monday, Taekwondo on Tuesday and Thursday, T-Ball again on Friday. Of course there is also work at the winery, writing for the newspaper, and lets not forget laundry. The never ending laundry. The garden is ...

My thoughts on Food Magazines and Baked Chicken Fajitas

Baked Chicken Fajitas

Baked Chicken Fajitas are suuuppper easy to whip together for a delicious weeknight meal. And its healthy too!      I don't buy food magazines very often. Those things are so expensive. I have a hard time paying $10 for a monthly publication which is mostly ads and recipes I will never cook. I also have a hard time throwing them away. I mean I paid $10 for that thing! I am ...

A Blast from the Past – Chili Beef Salads

I am a child of the 80's. When I say "child" I mean I was born in the 80's. You would not find me dancing to hair bands in my basement while combing my bangs into a perfect sphere that would reach the door a good 5 minutes before I did. Although I did have a perm ( briefly) and a t-shirt tie with stirrup pants and some Keds. Oh...and I loved "the Boss". Boorrrn in the ...

The Money is in the Mixes – Homemade Mixes

Homemade Mixes

When I go shopping, I shop mostly for items that are versatile and can be used in a variety of different recipes for a variety of different dishes ( except for the training pants I still buy, which are only good for one thing). I also try to spend as little as possible while still being reasonably healthy. But like most people in the world I am also busy ( or lazy on occasion) ...

Shredded Beef Fajita Tacos

I love it when a plan comes together. It rarely happens to me. Things always change or something unexpected pops up, but every now and then everything turns out just as good as you wanted them to, maybe even better. It is a wonderful feeling, even if that plan is only dinner. So the plan was to cook the Braised Beef in Red Wine and then follow that up with some shredded beef ...

The End – Pork Tacos

So, just in case you are just now tuning in, I have been making meals from one pork loin that I cooked on Monday. Last night was the very end of the pork loin, and it was just as tasty at the end as it was at the beginning. To catch you up the first meal was a Spice Rubbed Pork Loin, then we moved on to a Mostly Moo Shu Pork Stir Fry , and then last night wrapped up Pork Week ...
