It’s grilling season! It’s grilling season!
That’s exactly what I felt like shouting the first night that Shawn and I cooked dinner outside. We’ve repeated our outdoor cooking almost every night since. I love grilling outside. The scent of cooking food wafting through the air, the sounds of crackling inside the grill, the wave of heat [...]

How can you go wrong with chicken, bacon, cheddar and barbecue? You can’t! This dish is as easy as it is tasty, and better yet, it looks impressive (which is one of my favorite things: when something is easy but looks like it can’t be). My husband raved about this. My son gobbled every bite. [...]

This is a yummy, crispy chicken with just a hint of tanginess. It’s excellent with cous cous and Swiss Chard with Tomato and Feta (to see a picture of the chicken, click that link). You could also serve it over a green salad with a bit of Greek dressing.

When the going gets tough . . .

I held a mini-tasting in my kitchen for some family members this weekend. I test cooked about seven recipes for the book and several were clear winners, getting instant cheers.
