The key to this crispy tillapia is using seasoned Panko and seasoned fish fry. We served it with seasoned sweet potato fries and a green salad, and it was such a hit I had to make it again a week later. Continue reading
OK FOOD SLORES! Here is your First Ever Crasstalk Recipe Contest First Ever Winner! We had some formidable, formidable talent! Would Homoviper NurseWrestle Tacky_Tick? Or, would Greenwitch_Refugee try to cast a spell over the Shes_a_Rainbow. OR, maybe the Grand Inquisitor would drill Ross, MissLinda, BaldwinP and the others. Because nobody expects the Grand Inquisition. Continue reading
The photo of my fajita made my husband sad, because he thinks that sour cream is the devil’s dairy product. But, to many of us a fajita isn’t complete without a little dollop of the creamy white stuff. And I’m not going to fib – this fajita wanted a little mellowing out because I made the pico de gallo extra spicy. (The chicken wasn’t slacking in the heat department either.) This is an excellent recipe if you are fighting off a cold because the spiciness of the fajitas will clear your head and the lime juice will bolster your Vitamin C intake for the day.

I looked through several cookbooks, but even Martha Stewart (c’mon MARTHA!) let me down. So I decided to make something up, and the results were out of this world. I will share this super duper easy recipe with you because I can’t keep something soooo good hidden from the world. Continue reading
I used to be a pretty big fan of Zatarin’s Jambalaya. I thought it was easy to make, and was pretty tasty. However, the last time I made it I found it very salty, and I resolved to make jambalaya from scratch. Continue reading
At the risk of sounding like a yuppie or a hipster, I was at the farmers’ market yesterday and bought some gorgeous artichokes. This was the first time I had ever tried cooking artichokes, and I tried to recreate the amazing grilled artichokes served at Houston’s. What I realized is that artichokes are sharp and will stab you, but they are easier to prepare than I thought. These make a great appetizer, and you will put the mustard aioli on everything you eat that evening. Continue reading
