Another installment of food on a stick, thanks to inspiration from buddies Matt & Adam and their book titled...uh...On a Stick...which is always more fun to eat than food on a fork. Plus you get to play sword fight with the sticks after you eat (you do that too,...
We've been kabob happy lately, and it's all because of this man: click on photos to see where we were! and this man: My kids want to be Adam when they grow up. These two men wrote this book: Get this book! I know you'll love it! Chicken and Waffles on a Stick? hells...
I'm not normally into cute food. I'd rather have my food look delicious and say, "Eat. Me. Now." Cute food makes me a little sad and guilty when I take that first bite, especially if the food has an adorable smiley face on it. Poor disfigured thing! Am I right?! ...
We splurge on filet mignon a few times a year, it’s the most expensive cut of steak because it’s incredibly tender and you can only get about 9 filets per cow. Instead of buying the filet mignon piece by piece, we always get the entire tenderloin and spend the time to...
*waving hello!* Hey guys! I'm still in the middle of getting the new house ready and packing boxes in our old house. We're almost done painting every single wall, baseboard and ceiling trays. Three more days until the big move! I'll post some photos later today. Lots...
I’ve been fortunate in my life to meet some of the greatest people who have influenced food in a major way, from television chefs like Martin Yan to cooking greats like Jacques Pepin. But the person who I’ve enjoyed meeting the most is Marcella Hazan, who happens to...
For our family, if there ever was a PERFECT cut of steak, it would be the bad-boy Porterhouse steak. It's big. It's massive. One giant hunk will feed our family of four. But before I get into our love for Porterhouse (because I'll get carried away and will forget...

The anatomy of the perfect salad for me goes something like this: happy produce + vivid colors + variety of shapes and textures + big crunch topping + light, tangy dressing For Scott and the boys, it's: cheese + cold, crispy lettuce + cheese + crunchy croutons +...
The recipe for Skirt Steak Tacos is simple and only takes 20 minutes from start to finish. Instead of drowning my taco in a heavy salsa, I like to keep it simple and fresh with diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, crumbled Mexican cheese and a slice or two of avocado. A...
We planted a few citrus trees in our backyard 7 years ago, but shhhh....don't tell anyone in my neighborhood watch program because technically us homeowners in this lovely planned community are not allowed to plant anything that's not on THE LIST OF APPROVED GREENERY...
Chimichurri is an Argentinean condiment that I love slathering on grilled steak, especially skirt steak. While the recipe varies from town to town, family to family, the basics are olive oil, parsley and oregano. Other ingredients, like red wine vinegar, garlic, and...
Sticky, sweet, salty, spicy ribs that are so crazy simple to make (the only cooking equipment you need is tin foil and an oven!) We normally enjoy our baby backs fall off the bone - they are so tender that when you lift up the bone, the meat really does fall off. But...

Wednesdays are the craziest days in our household. Not only do the boys get out of school 2 hours early each week, but Tae Kwon Do classes start at 5:45pm. Because the boys take separate classes, they normally don't get out until 7:30pm which means dinner has to be...

Flank steak is quickly becoming one of my favorite steak cuts, and it's taken me this long to really fall in love with it because I normally opt for the skirt steak when shopping flatter cuts for grilling, tacos, fajitas, etc. It wasn't until the price of skirt...
Introducing the McGowan family! Angie and her family are fellow Floridians and they publish the popular Eclectic Recipes blog and the fact that she has a recipe category called "Spanglish" wins my heart. Oh and that cute little boy, Julien, she's got there wins my...
Normally, when I make curry dishes, whether Indian or Thai, I start with a shortcut - a ready-made curry spice paste that I can find in most grocery stores. But making the curry spice paste from scratch is just as easy, tastes infinitely fresher and the flavors of the...

Chicken lovers, unite for the summer! Why is chicken the ultimate summer protein? Well, not only is it incredibly versatile, but it also cooks quickly, so you don't have to create a sauna-like environment in your home in order to make it. (No one wants that in...
With inflation on the rise, more people are attempting to budget. This can be hard to do with the temptation of fast food and easily accessible eats from food delivery apps, but home cooking not only saves you money, 8 out of 10 times, it also results in healthier...
During the hot summer madness, the last thing a lot of want is something heavy and greasy that might weigh us down further. That's why low carb bowls are some of the most perfect summertime meals. They're all about getting freshness without compromising on flavor,...
