Breakfast this morning was delicious! Next time I’ll coat the berries with flour to keep them from sinking to the bottom. It was still really tasty! There was a deep crack on the top so I filled it with some lemon cream cheese frosting. The joys of experimenting with new gluten free recipes. 1 ½Continue […]
I love elk meat. It’s lean, tender and slightly sweeter than beef. It can be an expensive meat to buy from the butcher, but it’s well worth it! Marinading it in buttermilk really helps to get rid of any gaminess the meat may have. 4 large Elk Steaks or Chops Salt and Pepper to tasteContinue […]
When I was vacationing with my family in Maui years back everything was served with this amazing Macaroni Salad, locally referred to simply as Mac Salad.

I LOVE this sauce! It goes great with rice, pasta, chicken, shrimp, beef, vegetables and just about everything! But my all time favorite dish to serve it with is Fresh Vietnamese Spring Rolls.
