May 7, 2012 by Leave a Comment
This week’s recipe, Easy Slow Cooker Pinto Beans and Smoked Sausage, was developed for convenience. I got tired of the hassle of having to soak pinto beans overnight and then stand over a pot as they cooked. So out came the crockpot for a good ole overnight attempt. The result: Delicious. Most people season pinto […]
Marinated Lentil Salad {Published by Yahoo! Voices}

This is a recipe The Lucky Wife adapted from one she had been given by a former co-worker. I am not a big fan of salads, but this is one of her favorites. And it was also a recent request by The Well-Fed Son, who is only 5 years old. We’ve never seen another young […]
Southwestern Smoked Pork Stew Recipe
October 16, 2011 by 2 Comments
This dish was inspired by a soup I had about 15 years ago in a southwestern style restaurant, named South by Southwest. I believe they called the soup Tumbleweed Stew. This restaurant’s soup was wonderful; however, it was thin, brothy and lacked, in my opinion, ingredients. My version is packed with goodies and is more […]
One-Pot Recipe: Stovetop Hoppin’ John
September 25, 2011 by Leave a Comment
This one-pot recipe is yet another product that originated out of our experience with the elimination diet for food sensitivities. It is a simple, hearty and well-flavored dish, so much so that we feel it is a keeper regardless of what type of diet one is on. Traditional Hoppin’ John is field peas cooked with […]

September 18, 2011 by Leave a Comment
This Saturday evening’s one-pot recipe was created while our family was on an elimination diet for food sensitivities. The ingredients are an odd combination, to say the least. While on the elimination diet, the array of ingredients one can use is very restricted. Our nutritionist provided us with a list of what she would allow […]

Mexican Stir-Fried Rice

Well the family loves Mexican/Southwest dishes, there is just no denying this fact. This dish literally was made up by opening the cabinets one night and brainstorming. There was too much month at the end of the money, and The Chef needed a supper that did not require running out to the store. This creation […]
Turkey, Leek and White Bean Chili

Chilly weather calls for…..you guessed it…..Chili! (Corny dialogue, I know). This recipe is a true “throw it all together and see what happens” recipe. It is quick, easy, and good. You will notice that no onions are used. Chili without onions is like a steak without a baked potato. Well, the alternative may surprise you. […]
