Today I'm just sharing a few good recipes of mine. These are all things I've made many, many times and are ones my whole family enjoys. And shock of all shocks...they're not from Pinterest! These are actually from long before I discovered Pinterest. So, enjoy! The Best Damn Turkey Burgers It's grillin' season! Whip up these burgers and toss them on the grill and you will not be disappointed. This recipe originally came from Cooks.com and was called Cajun Turkey Burgers. However, they don't taste "Cajun" at all (they're not spicy)...but they are awesome. Truly. If you think turkey burgers tend toward the tasteless hockey puck variety, try these and it will change your mind. I swear. And they're easy. 1 lb ground turkey (get lean, not extra-lean...you need a little fat in it) 1 egg, beaten 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/2 tsp ground red pepper 1/2 c. seasoned dry bread crumbs (y...

Okay. So I've been remiss with my posting. For some reason the last couple of weeks have been crazy...but for no good reason. This week is the craziest of all, but I told myself I wouldn't let me get too far behind on things. And that's sort of working. I mean, I'm here typing, aren't I? Anyway, after some recipe missteps two weeks ago, it was nice to have a completely successful recipe week last week. Out of four new recipes, none were losers! Hurray! The Healthy Chicken Paprikash was quite good...though I will make a few adjustments next time. The Blackened Chicken with Avocado Cream Sauce and Cilantro-Lime Quinoa was quite awesome...again, I will make minor tweaks. We really enjoyed the Lazy Sunday Casserole...though "casserole" is not the right word for it...it is oven-roasted veggies and sausage. Good, nevertheless. And the Crockpot 3 Bean Turkey Chili recipe made an incredibly easy pot of chili that is easily customizable to individual tastes. Plus...

Hello food friends! I hope this post finds you all well-fed and happy...and either with a nice glass of wine or a good cup of coffee in-hand (depending on the time of day you're reading this...though, who am I to judge). As you all may remember, I tried out three new recipes last week. And, I'm here to report that it was with mixed success (enter: baseball metaphor)... The Home Run I had one home run, and that was the Crockpot Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin. It was a total hit with everyone. My husband couldn't stop talking about it and my 3 year old asked for more three times. ("More chicken and sauce," she kept saying...all meat is chicken to her, but the point is that she loved it! Especially the sauce.) Even the leftovers were great. So, I highly recommend this recipe. I also plan to try both the rub and the glaze on other things...I think it'll be great on chicken, pork chops, probably even salmon. Here's the recipe... Crockpot...

Just a short food post to let you know what's on the menu this week. I don't have any recipes to share yet because everything I'm making this week is new...and I'm not sharing a recipe unless I've tried it and liked it. And, it's a short menu this week due to both a plethora of evening activities (fun stuff, like dentist appointments. weee!) and a robust stock of leftovers from last week's "big pot meals." So here's what I'm trying out this week... - Chicken Enchilada Pasta - Melt-In-Your-Mouth Chicken with broccoli and mashed potatoes - Crockpot Brown Sugar and Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin with carrots and cous cous All of these recipes I found from different blogs and websites via Pinterest. My recipe pinboard is out of control, so my goal is to try at least one or two new recipes from it each week. Though I'm not exactly batting a thousand, my Pinterest recipe track record is pretty good, so I have high hopes. I'll l...
