Nutty Wacky Crazy Cake
I was looking for a delicious, rich, moist chocolate cake recipe and decided to combine the AllRecipes.com Crazy Cake and Sweet Little Bluebird’s Chocolate Crazy Cake. For the icing I used the Best Chocolate Frosting recipe on AlllRecipes.com. What makes this cake crazy? (Other than this crazy cook baking it for her crazy family?) It has no…
Easy Crockpot Chicken Chili
Easy Crockpot Chicken Chili. I grew up on Texas chili, which is all beef and no beans. So when I first heard of chicken “chili” with white beans, my first thought was this does not qualify as chili. Is some New Yorker or California foodie trying to pass this off as chili to us Texans?…
Quick and Easy Chicken Posole
My first recipe as part of the AllRecipes.com Sunday Supper movement is Quick and Easy Chicken Posole. As an AllRecipes.com Allstar, we were asked to select a recipe from their healthy MyPlate recipe collection. After reviewing the recipes, I saw the Quick and Easy 20-Minute Chicken Posole, which happened to be very similar to my own…
Starting Sunday Supper Tradition
This September, I am participating, along with fellow AllRecipes.com Allstars and other bloggers, in the Sunday Supper Movement, or as I like to call it: Feasting with the Family. This is the first post in a series of blog posts related to the Sunday Supper Movement. The Sunday Supper Movement encourages families to sit…
Spicy Orange Chicken
Spicy Orange Chicken, adapted from Chef John’s Spicy Orange Wing Sauce on AllRecipes.com, is a delicious, quick and easy weeknight take-out, fake-out dish brings back a little nostalgia for us. It reminds us of this little locally owned neighborhood chinese hole-in-the-wall restaurant that had been there for years at the time we moved into our…
It’s Greek to Me Broccoli Slaw
If you follow this blog, you know that I love slaw, like Crack Slaw, and especially this Greek Broccoli Slaw! I love the colors and the flavors! It is fantastic with chicken, barbecue, picnics, and just about everything else. However, I don’t love mayonnaise in slaw. Don’t get me wrong. It tastes great. However,…
Cajun Sloppy Joe Burritos
Does this sound familiar? I’m driving home from work and start to think about what to fix for dinner. Near panic ensues; but then I remember that I browned some ground beef last night. All I have to do is add a sauce and can make Sloppy Joes. Whoohoo! Dinner Solved! However, then I arrive…
Black Bean and Feta Cheese Ugly Dip
Adapted from AllRecipes.com, this easy, versatile Black Bean and Feta Cheese Ugly Dip is great as a side to a Mexican dinner, or on top of a salad, or as a cold appetizer dip. It is easy to change it up to your taste. If you change the black beans to garbanzo beans, it becomes…
Greek Seasoned Porterhouse Steak with Cucumber and Tomato Salad
This juicy, mouth-watering, grilled Greek Seasoned Porterhouse Steak with Cucumber and Tomato Salad was adapted from the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association recipe on AllRecipes.com. It was so juicy and full of flavor that there were no left overs after this meal. When my husband’s doctor told him that he should cut down on carbs, hubby…
Chicken Mango Salsa Salad with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette
I love summer salads, especially this Chicken Mango Salsa Salad with Chipotle Lime Vinaigrette. So I’m sharing my favorite. I came up with this main dish salad as a way to use up leftovers the day after we had chicken fajitas with mango salsa. It has many layers of flavor and a fantastic homemade Chipotle…
Chicken Cacciatore
Hubby was bummed out when he came home from the doctor last week. The doctor said he needed to reduce his carbs. I was relieved to know that he is ok and only a tweak in his diet is required. Even though we (because if he has to do it so will I) have…

Sizzling Steak Fajitas
My husband and I had dinner with my sister and her husband last night. I mentioned my new blog and the recipes I had been trying, specifically the Goya fajita recipe that I planned to make the next day using the Goya Adobe seasoning I had received plus some Goya products I bought, such as…
Spicy Egg Salad Sandwich on English Muffin
I wanted something quick and easy for a light dinner. What’s better than breakfast for dinner. So I told my husband I was making egg salad sandwiches. To which he replied “maybe we could go out to eat.” Egg salad usually draws a rather ho-hum response from most. However, you have not had this spicy…
Herdez Mexican Cornbread
After making the Creamy Tomatillo Verde Avocado Salsa in my first post, now I have to use the rest of the Herdez Tomatillo Verde Mexican Cooking Sauce because it tastes so good, it would be a shame to waste. So I decided to make the Herdez Mexican Cornbread by Paula on Allrecipes.com. It has…
Antipasto Pasta Salad for Summer
It was a scorcher outside. While I sat in traffic for an hour on my way home from work, the car dashboard said it was 104 degrees. No relief in sight until about October. Too bad I can’t afford to move to Alaska during the summer. Oh, but I digress. At least I knew…
Herdez Creamy Tomatillo Verde Avocado Salsa
When I saw Valerie (From Valerie’s Kitchen) post this creamy salsa recipe I knew I had to try it. Her recipes are always excellent; and I love the new Herdez Mexican Cooking sauces, especially the Tomatillo Verde sauce used in this recipe. I expected this recipe would be good. However, when I tasted the salsa,…
