A few years ago my husband discovered a delicious Thai restaurant in town, and he immediately fell in love with their curry. He kept telling me we needed to figure out how to make it. I kept putting him off because Thai food is not always my favorite. Then last fall my little sister made us this delicious chicken vegetable curry. It is amazing. It has a little sweet from ...
A couple years ago I posted a recipe for pork schnitzel with mushroom gravy, and it is delicious. I have found another equally delicious schnitzel variation to share. And let's be honest, you can't ever have enough schnitzel in your life. We made this weeks ago to celebrate Germany's win in the World cup, and it was so incredibly delicious. Ingredients: 1 1/2 lbs pork chops 1/2 ...
I love Indian food! I didn't know this until I was an adult and willing to step outside of my comfort zone to try some new things. I used to be a super picky eater. I would spend the first 5 minutes of dinner methodically picking out the onions my mom cooked into whatever meal she had prepared. I flat out refused to eat beans of any kind except for green beans. All that changed ...
This summer we visited some family in Georgia. It was my first trip to the south, unless you count a layover in the Atlanta airport. As we were planning what we would do on our trip, I said the the only things I cared about was visiting a plantation and eating southern food. Luckily, we got to experience both of these and much more. It was such a great trip. The southern food ...
We always hear about quick and easy recipes for weeknight meals. Well I don't know about you, but sometimes I feel like I need something even quicker and easier on weekend nights. The weekends just get so busy and then all of a sudden I realize we still need to eat dinner. This crouton chicken became my quick and easy weekend night dinner this weekend. I got this recipe from ...
I love shrimp! We don't eat it very often because it is a little pricey, but every once in awhile we splurge. This time around it was in celebration of my birthday. On my actual birthday we stuffed ourselves with a humongous breakfast, and we couldn't eat for the rest of the day, so my birthday dinner was pushed until today. It was worth the wait! We got the recipe for ...
There are some nights when I am really excited about making dinner and I want to spend extra time making something nice. And then there are most of the other nights when I just want to make something fast. This recipe is one of those quick recipes for busy nights. Luckily it is also delicious. It has a little bit of spice to it, but not too much. It's one we make a ...
Earlier this week I was really feeling fall. The temperatures dipped below 90 degrees for just a minute and I was ready for some soup! I love soup and I miss it all summer long, but eating soup in 100+ degree weather is just ridiculous. Now that it is starting to cool down and I am getting antsy for soup. This delicious white chicken chili recipe came from my younger sister. ...
I love to eat fried foods. They are delicious! I know they are really bad for you so I do draw the line at things like deep fried Twinkies. As much as I love to eat somewhat heavily fried foods, I do not like to make them. My house ends up stinking like oil for days. Plus I am trying to set a good example fore Sweet Girl about eating semi healthy meals. Please don't go back ...
I am the mother of two amazing kids and I am married to an incredibly sweet and smokin' hot guy. I taught elementary school and preschool before leaving to become a stay at home mom. Now I'm embarking on the adventure of a lifetime and learning how to be a mom.
