My husband grew up eating traditional cabbage rolls in Louisiana. It’s one of his favorite things & a new years tradition for him. I grew up eating stuffed peppers and had never heard of cabbage rolls until we married. Fast forward 10 years & we combine his cabbage rolls with my stuffed peppers for a…
Y’all already know I love soup. And I like to come up with new recipes using ingredients I always have on hand. Since we’re well into the new year & since I love black eyed peas, I came up with a “new” way to cook them – I’m calling it Good Luck Soup! How fun…

We’ve always eaten lots of vegetables but now I’m finding new ways to enjoy them fresh from the garden. This lentil salad recipe is a perfect way to get loads of protein, vitamins & minerals! Since starting our garden I have been amazed at the things I can grow in the ground. Potted plants are…

I planned dinner & cooking classes at Quattro where we learned to make a super easy shrimp ceviche that was absolutely delicious! Naturally it would be, I’d expect nothing less. We didn’t get to eat ours for our…
I love anything stuffed or rolled. So when DH said he wanted chicken for dinner I couldn’t bring myself to make plain old chicken. Instead I used it to make an easy weeknight stuffed manicotti… with a twist! Usually manicotti is stuffed with Italian cheeses & herbs – ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, etc. I do love…
My family & I love salmon. Baked salmon, sautéed salmon, grilled salmon, salmon patties/cakes/croquettes (or whatever you wanna call them), smoked salmon, salmon poke, ceviche, & of course sushi. We love it all. But in my opinion, the best way to cook salmon is hands down to baste it with butter and/or oil while cooking…
