Saturday we had waffles for dinner - pathetically easy bisquick waffles, which I enhanced with some corn. I ended up with a couple cans of corn a few months ago from someone else's groceries that ended up in my bag, and this was a good use for one of ...

I got this great recipe from Jaden's Steamy Kitchen, and she found it in Noodles Every Day: Delicious Asian Recipes from Ramen to Rice Sticks. This was a bit more effort than your average stir fry with the added step of noodles, but the flavor was just great! ...

A day late and a dollar short, but here's some jambalaya in celebration of Mardi Gras. I suppose it's Mercredi Gras for us :-P I got the inspiration for this version from this recipe (originally from Cooking Light, April 2005). I tweaked my version ...

This is another iteration on calzones. This time I cut up some Isernio's Chicken Italian Sausage links into rounds for the protein. These were great, and we both thought that with a can of diced tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce, this would be great on pasta as ...

Hardly worth a post, as these aren't even really a recipe, but they're one of my favorite sandwiches, nonetheless. The bulk of the lettuce and tomatoes let me enjoy bacon while practicing some form of moderation :-) I had these for breakfast today, enjoying one of my ...

This is a tasty Italian dish inspired by my mom's spaghetti sauce. Feel free to use your own marinara if you have some on hand. I'm just out and need to make another batch to freeze! The Barilla sauce is really pretty decent, though, and works well ...

This is a take on a Chinese-American dish that appears on most any Chinese restaurant menu. My version is heavy on veggies and light on the sauce, making it quite a healthy dinner that's very tasty to boot. If you can't find Chinese black vinegar, balsamic makes an ...

Pays d’Auge is a region of France near Normandy famous for its apples and Calvados apple brandy. This baked chicken dish of mine is inspired by that region. This recipe has been percolating in my head for awhile, and tonight I gave it a go. It was another ...

As promised, we're going another round with stuffed pork. This time I got a pork loin roast and butterflied it. We did go with an Italian set of flavors, which I think worked out very well. Shaun and I thought it was company quality! I'm quite ...
