Several years ago, we subscribed to Cooking Light, and this Saturday evening’s recipe, Garden Vegetable Pasta Bake, is slightly adapted from a recipe in the March 2006 issue we received, Garden Style Lasagna. A couple of years after getting married, we decided to incorporate some vegetarian meals into our diet. We love meat. We probably […]
I am excited about the recipe we’re serving this Saturday evening for a couple of reasons: there are so many health benefits of eating salmon, it is my most favorite seafood recipe and it is one of my TOP 10 favorite recipes of all time. If you are always looking for more salmon recipes to […]
6 Tips for How to Save Money in College I loved college. Some of the best years of my life and lots of great memories come from that time. Financially, it can be a challenging time, however, especially in a struggling economy. With this Saturday evening’s recipe, we also have some ideas for how to […]
This Crockpot Hamburger Soup has the same flavors as one of our favorite recipes, Old Fashioned Pot Roast (which I also make in the crockpot). The Well-Fed Children do not care for pot roast due to the texture of the beef (stringy and chewy), but The Lucky Wife and I love the flavor of potatoes […]
We are bringing this week’s recipe to you as the beginning of a series we’re starting to showcase crockpot recipes. We have found Sundays to be a perfect day for the convenience of a crockpot meal, put together Saturday night or Sunday morning and ready just in time for lunch when we get home after […]
I created this Saturday evening’s recipe out of our family’s need to be gluten-restricted. Everyone knows that the best part of a good home made chicken pot pie is the crust. But when you are gluten- restricted it is hard to enjoy. So I came up with a pot pie that is for the most […]
This Saturday evening’s recipe, Poor Man’s Stir-Fried Rice, is yet another “open up the cabinets and use what’s available” creation. If you have followed our blog for any length of time, you have probably realized that our family loves rice in its many forms. We also love Asian flavors of any form. This dish is […]
This Saturday evening’s recipe can be eaten as goulash or soup (add more broth when serving) and is a super quick and easy meal to put together for your family. Recently, I made this soup using the ingredients listed in the variation below. The flavor was milder and surprisingly, we found that we actually preferred […]
This Lowcountry Fish Stew recipe is another Gullah Cuisine dish, and if, like us, you’re always looking for new ways to incorporate more seafood into your diet, you will really enjoy this one. I created this recipe out of ingredients we bought on sale when grocery shopping this week. Normally, this is made with catfish, […]
This Saturday evening, we’re serving up a favorite Gullah Cuisine recipe, Frogmore Stew, (also known as Beaufort Stew AND Lowcountry Boil), at least for The Lucky Wife and me. The Well-Fed Son thought the corn was spicy but loved the shrimp and sausage. Go figure. The Well-Fed Daughter, with her inexperienced palate, did not care […]
Everybody and their brother has a recipe for vegetable beef soup. The recipes vary as much as the cars that you see on the highway, but MINE is different. ;) It is different because it isn’t really, technically my recipe. It has its origin with my mom. I made vegetable beef soup a few times […]
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 […]
