The above photo may very well be the best food shot I’ve ever taken. I have a few others that I think are really good, but this one takes the cake. And to think, it was totally unplanned. I think I shared this in a previous post, but if I didn’t, I’ll share it again. […]

Pesto Double Grilled Cheese & Tomato Sandwich Recipe
I’ve always had a reputation for making stunningly good grilled cheese sandwiches. Just ask Laura. She loves them. The way I go about making them is a bit different than most people go about it. While the traditional grilled cheese sandwich consists of two pieces of white bread with some yellow cheese situated between them, […]
Broccoli Slaw Wraps with Feta, Cream Cheese & Olives Recipe
It’s been a while since Laura and I have eaten any type of a wrap. Back a few years ago, that’s all we would eat. Of course, that’s before I began digging around in the world of food. Now, there’s far too much out there to enjoy beyond wraps. I think the primary reason we […]
Garlicky Spaghetti with Kale, Lemon & Romano Cheese Recipe
The gardening season is upon us. From here on out, as much as I can, I’ll be incorporating what I grow in the back yard in my recipes. This is an extremely exciting time of the year for me because every morning, I get to walk outside to see how much our crop has grown […]

Thai Curry with Butternut Squash, Chickpeas & Cilantro Recipe
Curry, by far, is one of the most dynamic and tasty things you can put in your mouth. Every single time I eat curry, I’m astonished at what I’ve been missing when I’m not eating it. And to think, it’s not a terribly challenging area of cuisine to undertake. Actually, it’s very simple. For the […]

Orecchiette & Broccoli in Brown Butter Sauce Recipe
Up until a few days ago, I had no idea what orecchiette was. Come to find out, it’s merely another shape of pasta. It sort of looks like small shells, but it’s a bit thicker with more firmness. It’s made up of the same exact ingredients as most other pastas, so I could have easily […]
The Real Deal Egg Salad Sandwich with Veggies Recipe
I’ve been a fan of egg salad sandwiches for most of my life. I’m not sure what it is – probably the fact that they taste great and are off the beaten path. I don’t eat them very often and when I do, I always enjoy. The thing is, I’ve oftentimes wondered how to take […]
