I love meals like this. To me, they’re “mic drop” dinners.
As in, “Womp, there it is!” (mic drop)
You can start it a half an hour before your favorite show, and be sitting down by the time the opening credits roll. This meal is so, so, simple! Continue reading
Unlike a traditional chicken pot pie, this recipe does not have a thick, rich sauce. I like to make this because it is a great way to use leftover chicken, and it only requires a few ingredients. The leftover pie will also reheat wonderfully in the toaster oven. Continue reading
Oh, that’s just what we all need. A Republican (naturally) Colorado state senator who praises all that scrumptious, finger lickin good barbecue and chicken but only to the extent that it kills the black race. What a pity that all those dangblasted grease eaters are taken out by luscious, innocuous Hallelujah chicken that’s completely safe when put in the hands of white people! And if it isn’t the sickle-cell anemia and diaUHBEETUS sent to reduce the black race to rubble, just like racist spirit guide and bigoted butter-rich cage fighter, Paula Deen, would say, then apparently it’s the chicken.

Okay, so the title of this post is a little misleading, because turmeric isn’t really “lowbrow.” But for years I’ve thought of it as “saffron coloring for the fiscally challenged.” I love to use it in rice because it makes it so bright and cheerful for pennies a batch. It’s also good for you – which makes it pretty much a win/win. Then over Christmas I was gifted with a good sized amount of saffron. Saffron! The most expensive spice in the world! I’ve been hoarding it because…well, it’s the most expensive spice in the world. Continue reading
Get it. Continue reading
This is my favorite recipe for lasagna, as it is more cheesy than it is saucy. If you are feeling really adventurous, you can throw in a few blue cheese crumbles. Like all lasagna, it is even better the day after! Continue reading
Here’s what you’ll need:
Bring stock to a boil and add orzo or rice. Simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. (Orzo is faster than rice). Season stock to taste with salt, if necessary. Continue reading
Last Wednesday, my in-laws were in town and my mother-in-law volunteered to make this recipe she had recently seen in the newspaper. It was so nice not to have to worry about feeding my guests for dinner, and it turns out that this easy-to-make recipe is also incredibly delicious. I can’t wait to try the mustard-panko crust on a pork tenderloin or chicken drumsticks. Continue reading
Well, now that the Chick-Fil-A brouhaha is dying down, you’re left still craving one of those delicious, fried chicken sandwiches. And probably down a couple friends on Facebook. What’s a hungry liberal to do? Well, we can always pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and head into the kitchen and make a sandwich of our own. And when we put our own sweat, tears and love into it, it just tastes better. Luckily, Hilah Cooking is here to help us out!! Continue reading
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you are aware that Chik-fil-A has come under fire for their long-standing support (in the form of monetary donations) of anti-LGBTQ organizations. A few days ago, the Jim Henson Company posted a note on their Facebook page that read as follows: Continue reading
