It’s Thursday night and that means Fast & Furious has their weekly softball game. I didn’t get a chance to make cookies for the team last week, so I promised Dennis that I would make them for tonight’s game. I love making cookies for the guys, it brings me so much joy. As I’ve mentioned,…
Spicy Tuna Melt
Wondering what to make for lunch today, I settled on a tuna sandwich. That soon turned into an idea to make a tuna melt and to make it on the spicy side. I had jalapeños to use and also pepper jack cheese that I needed to use up. I like the all white, albacore tuna,…
Marinated Mini Heirloom and Sun-Dried Tomato, Chicken and Burrata Pizza
Last night was all about Dennis. He’s starting a new position today at a new company, which he is very excited about. I’m really excited for him, as this will be a wonderful opportunity that is well deserved for Dennis. I asked him if he’d prefer to go out to dinner last night or for…
Auntie Krissy’s Guacamole
Last night we were invited to my sister-in-law’s home for dinner. It was a send-off for her oldest daughter, Alexis, who is heading to Michigan to start a new adventure … her next chapter. Her boyfriend, John, is from the midwest and would like to go back. It’s a great place to live and he…
Potato, Jalapeño and Pepper Jack Quesadilla
Tonight, I had every intention of making BLT sandwiches for dinner. Dennis usually has a PB&J sandwich on Thursday nights before his games and Kylie and I will either head to Chipotle or eat something that isn’t fussy or too much work. Well, Kylie texted me to say she wanted to visit with her cousin…
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
It’s Thursday night and that means Dennis has his weekly softball game. I haven’t made cookies for the Fast & Furious in a few weeks, so decided I’d whip up a batch for Dennis to take to the guys. A goal of mine is to come up with as many variations of cookie as I…
Sautéed Shishito Peppers
I have a recipe for the most simple side dish you can make. It takes less than 15 minutes to prepare and a serving of 7 Shishito peppers has only 15 calories. I see the bags of Shishito peppers at Trader Joe’s all the time and I’ve wanted to try them for awhile. I’m so…
Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie
This weekend, I was perusing a couple of my cookbooks just for the fun of it. I used to watch my mom read cookbooks in the family room in the evenings and it brings back good memories for me. So, on Saturday, while I was just hanging out with no other plans, I decided to…
White Chocolate Chip Chocolate Cookies
White Chocolate Chip Chocolate Cookies! Need I say more? It’s like a double dose of chocolate, what could be better? Tonight is Thursday, which means Dennis is heading to the softball field with his team for their weekly game. I wanted to make the guys some cookies and this is the recipe I came up…
Hatch Chile Fish Tacos
When I was at the market the other day, they had boxes of Hatch chiles set out and they were just $1.88 a pound. The season for Hatch chiles runs from the beginning of August to the end of September. I wanted to take advantage of these chiles, so bought four to make a sauce…
