This is a hearty vegetarian taco filling. Since most vegetarian taco fillings are based on beans this makes a nice change. Plus it is super quick to make, since the most time consuming part is chopping all the veggies and dinner can be ready in 20 minutes.
Creamy Chicken Florentine
Creamy Chicken Florentine. The recipe was a big hit, and it was a great way to put together a fast, healthy meal. I walked in the door after picking my daughter up from her dance class, and dinner was on the table 20 minutes later. All I had to do was boil some […]
Indian Beef Curry
I love Indian food, and this is a flavorful beef curry that isn’t very spicy. You could add chili peppers to it to make it hot, but I think the spices blend well without the peppers. I usually use my pressure cooker to make it since it cuts the preparation time from about 2 hours […]
Roasted Sausage, Potatoes and Beans
I like this recipe because it is very easy to make, and colorful. It tastes good too, but meals are always more appealing when they look pretty. Another variation I’ve made with this recipe is to use shrimp instead of sausage. It is much healthier made that way, but more expensive to make. If you […]
Bangers and Mash Recipe
This is a popular British recipe. I read British murder mysteries sometimes, and this keeps being mentioned as something they eat, so I decided we should try it. It is basically sausages, served with onion gravy and mashed potatoes. I think to be really authentic it should also be served with green peas, but since […]
Tomatoes and Green Onions with Tuna
We eat a lot of pasta in our house, because it is quick and the kids like it. The standard tuna with noodle casserole is too heavy for me, but this one is less creamy and has more vegetables. The other thing I like about this recipe is that I almost always have the ingredients […]
Pomegranate Pork Tenderloin
I made this last week based on a recipe at allrecipes.com, my favorite online site for getting recipes. I had to change it up because we were out of some of the ingredients, but it turned out pretty good. The sauce made a nice addition to the meal, since pork can get kind of […]
Clam and Corn Chowder Recipe
Late we have been having lots of soups, they just seem to go well this time of year. This is a recipe for a typical clam chowder, but with corn added in. I like the corn since it adds another taste to the chowder and makes it unique.
Butternut Squash Soup
I made this for dinner on Halloween and it was delicious. I’m not a huge squash fan, so I like it when recipes add extra flavors so the squash flavor isn’t too overwhelming. We served this with pumpkin bread and it was an excellent and seasonal Halloween meal.
Zuppa Toscana Recipe
My oldest daughter is a senior in high school this year, and we have been doing college visits almost every week this fall. Two weeks ago we stopped at The Olive Garden to eat after a college visit and I had Zuppa Toscana soup and loved it. I can’t believe I’ve never had this soup […]
