I love biryani rice because it’s jam packed with flavor! I didn’t have time today for the more traditional version, so I took a few shortcuts. Namely using ground, dried herbs. The flavor wasn’t lacking (even though I had to omit some spices) and the husband absolutely love it! It’s definitely not a traditional biryani,Continue […]
It’s a bit dreary today and tomato soup sounded so good! I had some fry bread leftover from yesterday’s Fry Bread Tacos and they absolutely amazing dipped in the soup. You can easily replace any of the herbs that you don’t like with more of the other herbs, just be careful with thyme. A little goesContinue […]
I keep a stash of homemade burritos in the freezer for my husband to take to work if there aren’t any leftovers from the night before. I decided to pop one in the air fryer to make a chimichanga. So good! Pork Filling: 2 lb Pork Butt Roast 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika ½ teaspoon AnchoContinue […]
I found some rice! It definitely wasn’t what I expected. I’d never even heard of Bamboo Rice before. Upon more research I found out that it’s medium or small grain white rice that’s been infused with young bamboo which can give it the green color and adds several vitamins. You learn something new everyday! ItContinue […]
I love Shrimp! I’m not a huge seafood fan, but shrimp is definitely something that I regularly indulge in. Grilled or smoked being my favorite cooking methods. This dish goes brilliantly with Cilantro Lime Rice or Grilled Veggies! 2 lbs raw Jumbo Shrimp — Marinade: 3 large Limes; juiced and zested 2 teaspoons Salt 1Continue […]
It’s been a rough day and this was so needed! Between the stresses of the holidays and daily life, this is a nice pick me up to help set you back on your feet. I only drink this cocoa on stressful days before Christmas. My only regret is that I didn’t have any cream toContinue […]
Last night’s (and tonight’s) dinner. Jerk Chicken Gyros. I normally cook them on the smoker, but my handy-dandy skillet did the trick. I used up the last of my Jerk Seasoning mix, so it’s definitely time to make some more. Jerk Seasoning: 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder 1 teaspoon Onion Salt ½ teaspoon Smoked Paprika 1Continue […]

I haven’t had pork chops for a while. 😋 Time to change that! Baked Montreal Pork Chops & Creamy Rice. It’s a quick, easy recipe that doesn’t need babysitting. My favorite kind of meals! Pork Chops: 4 large Bone-in Pork Chops 2 Tablespoons Montreal Steak Seasoning 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder —Continue […]
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve made Vietnamese Spring Rolls or Gỏi Cuốn and Spicy Peanut Sauce. I normally make them with shrimp, but Chicken sounded amazing. I also had some of the sweet and sticky sauce leftover from last night so I made a small bowl of Ground Beef & Broccoli. Chicken: 2Continue […]
I love plantains! I used to pan fry them, but my air fryer does the trick brilliantly with almost no oil! ❤️ I’d only ever had them with sea salt, garlic and Parmesan so I decided to switch it up a bit and make an interpretation of Maduros. They were pretty dang good! Air FryerContinue […]
It’s pretty chilly, so this amazing soup really helped fight off the cold. Homemade soup is so much richer and more flavorful than the canned variety. Plus, the leftovers make an amazing tuna casserole. 1 lb Mushrooms; chopped 1 medium Onion; chopped 3 cloves Garlic; minced ½ cup Leek; chopped ½ cup Flour 8 cupsContinue […]
The side dish from day 4 of my #pantrychallenge The Old Bay Onions Rings I made as a midnight snack last night and the side for the Baked Buffalo Drumsticks! I was concerned that the Sprite would make them too sweet, but I was so wrong. They were so stinking good! It fried up asContinue […]
