Creamy garlic chicken consists of lightly breaded, pan seared chicken served over mashed potatoes with a caramelized garlic gravy. Need I say more? 🙂 I can pretty much eat endless variations of meat/gravy/mashed potatoes, and this one is a nice twist on the traditional beef dishes. Like any dish where I’m going to pan fryContinue reading “Creamy Garlic Chicken”

Salsa Cilantro
We eat lots of store bought jarred salsa because it is quick and easy, but homemade salsa is SO, SO much better. It isn’t even really the same thing. I will eat way more fresh salsa than I will jarred. I have previously mentioned my love for the Nopalito cookbook. Everything I have made fromContinue reading “Salsa Cilantro”
My Favorite Homemade Pizza Sauce
We love homemade pizza and there are a few different kinds I make on an ongoing basis like Detroit pizza, tortilla pizza, and my regular thin crust pizza.

Reubens + Homemade Potato Chips
Reubens are kind of the perfect sandwich. Toasty, buttery, meaty, tangy… they have it all. They are on of our favorites. I also love how quick they are to make.

Homemade Gyros Meat + Gyros
We have always been big gyros fans. They are such a quick, fresh, tasty option when eating out. It always seemed impossible to make them at home, since in restaurants they cook the meat on a huge rotating skewer. Then at some point I found this recipe with a method for making gyros meat atContinue reading “Homemade Gyros Meat + Gyros”
