This soup was perfect timing for this week as Jen (my wife) and I have been fighting off some semblance of colds and sinus crap. There's nothing better than a nice hot bowl of soup to warm t… Read More

This week I went with another Jamie Oliver recipe. The last time I blogged a Jamie Oliver recipe it was a wildly successful post and dinner. I had to try his meatball-making technique, one t… Read More

Oh man it's great to be back on the blog! So much to say, and yet I have to keep reminding myself that I don't have to say it all in a single post. A lot has changed since my last post inclu… Read More

So I decided to give Chef Michael Smith another shot and make another of his recipes. Even though I wasn't a big fan of his Coconut Crusted Chicken it did taste better leftover. The flavors… Read More

Okay, so Chef Michael Smith is a well-known, celebrity chef pretty much across the globe. I'm not sure how famous he is here in the states, but just because I had never heard of him before d… Read More

I've been reading a book called The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. It's quite fascinating, even though it reads like a dry documentary in print, especially if you have a particular in… Read More

Regretably, it's been a really long time since my last post. I work full time, odd second shift hours, which means I'm not home to make dinner. When I am home to make dinner I usually make p… Read More

I say first attempt because this is just a simple something I threw together for dinner last night. The only thing that doesn't make this a vegan lasagna is the cheese, and of that I think I… Read More

Much to the chagrin of Jen and Lily, I occasionally enjoy a Moroccan/North African dish. It's something about the earthiness of the individual ingredients combining to create new and surpris… Read More

My family and I are switching to a vegetarian, whole foods diet for health and weight-loss purposes. I'm pretty excited about it, and it's amazing to me how much food I eat during a sitting… Read More

I've been on a Jamie Oliver kick lately. Honestly, I've never paid much attention to him, thinking he was just another TV chef, until one morning I watched one of his 30 minute meals shows… Read More

A few months ago I was picked to check out some Melt buttery, organic spread, and here I am today doing it again. I love this stuff! I've tried using it with daily cooking and baking as well… Read More

This was an easy and filling dinner for company Saturday night. As a side, I made some breadsticks brushed with a homemade herb butter using half of my pizza dough recipe. And honestly, I sp… Read More

Time management has become more difficult since my "part time job" has been scheduling me for full time hours (without the full time benefits, of course). And so my ability to cook decent me… Read More

I get the urge to bake about as much as I get the urge to cook. I found this little recipe in a Food Network Kitchens cookbook and thought it would be fast and easy. Well, it is, sort of, bu… Read More

It's been some time since I've had the time and energy along with the urge to do some creative, experimental cooking. I wonder if foodies that don't cook know what kind of planning it takes… Read More

People approach me all the time and ask, "Hey Noob! You got any good recipes for dog food?!"
Actually, no they don't. Nobody, except Daisy, has ever asked me that. When she was a puppy I tr… Read More

A couple of weeks ago, I was contacted by Miranda, who does promotional services for Melt, and she sent me a couple of free samples. I first discovered Melt over at Dinners, Dishes and Desse… Read More

Drop the seasoning packet! Nope, you're not going to need that anymore; save your ninety-nine cents.

Jen and I have become recent fans of Dave Ramsey, and one of his popular expressions is going on a "beans n rice; rice n beans grocery budget." This is a great way to save about $10 a week o… Read More
