At this point, I can call myself a dedicated soup fan. In all honesty, it doesn’t get cool enough to really enjoy a warm, piping bowl of your favorite soup down here in Houston. It cools down to a mild 50 degrees and we call that winter. Well, I don’t care. Im going to eat […]

First― let me start by saying i’m not going to call this a “Recipe”. An awesome idea, Yes; but a recipe, not quite. This Bruschetta BLT Sandwich is a perfect change up to they classic BLT. For the sake of convenience, I used a jar of bruschetta (GASP) but if you are so inclined, you […]

  I recently got the opportunity to volunteer with the Periwinkle Foundation and host a fun  kid- friendly cooking class at their day camp! We made three delicious snacks without the use of an oven or stove and the kids had a great time.   The Periwinkle Foundation is located here in Houston, Texas and […]

I have been saving some of these recipes just waiting to share them with you all! This Chicken Tortilla Soup has been tested, tweaked, and tried time and time again but I’m proud to say I think […]

This isn’t really a recipe but more of a failproof formula to delicious BBQ chicken pizza. So, the IDEAL bbq chicken pizza might include smoked chicken breast, a homemade crust, and a slow simmering sauce but that’s just not feasible most of the time. ( I am working on publishing my homemade pizza recipe for […]

Blackened Fish Tacos I love tacos. At first, it was just ground beef tacos, then I branched out to chicken, well now I love fish tacos. Particularly flaky white cod, served in warm tortillas with crunchy cabbage and a smooth avocado sauce drizzled on top. Always avocado sauce. I used Atlantic cod, seasoned it with […]

To all my Kansas City readers: HAPPY RED FRIDAY! In honor of this weekend’s upcoming home game, I thought I would share a new tailgating recipe. Bacon Cheeseburger Hatch Green Chile Sliders (I’m really working on more creative names, I promise.) Basically, it’s a sweet Hawaiian roll, stuffed with a mini hamburger patty, roasted Hatch […]
