Hawaiian Roll Pizza

It has been a little while since the last post. Lisa and I have been busy keeping our little boy Dean happy.  With keeping Dean happy, sometimes we get gifts of food to help make things easier. My sister-in-law, Amy, brought us some gumbo-ish food with King’s Hawaiian Rolls.  Lisa really liked the rolls, so…

Spicey Turkey Rice Casserole

While working on a grocery list for the week, I noticed we had plenty of Zantarain’s rice boxes.  I thought in my head that sometimes people use meat and rice to create a casserole.  I searched on All Recipe’s site for rice and casserole and found a Spice Baked Rice recipe and looked it over. …

“Homestyle” turkey sausage meatloaf

Well, it’s that time of year again. The night begins earlier, the weather gets colder and thoughts of warm comfort food flood my brain. One of my favorite comfort foods is meatloaf. I know some people frown at meatloaf, but if you love a hamburger how can you pass up a hamburger that’s in loaf…

Home-Style Chicken Dinner

My father-in-law gave us a package of Perdue chicken breasts.  Since we needed to get them cooked, I found a recipe in Betty Crocker‘s magazine called Casseroles & One-Dish Meals called “Home-Style” Chicken Dinner.  I followed the basic recipe.  I excluded the sweet potatoes and add the McCormick Grill Mates, because I like the flavors…

Polynesian Stir-fry Chicken

Polynesian Stir-Fry Chicken This recipe is derived from a pork recipe in Taste of Home’s Comfort Food Diet Book.  The recipe called for pork, but I used chicken breast tenderloins instead.  The other recipe also called for peanuts, but I left them out.  You can add them if you’d like.  This recipe was so good,…

Crusty Dijon chicken

Lisa decided to find another recipe in the Taste of Home Magazine that she used for the Asian Mango Chicken.  This time, using the Dijon-crusted chicken breasts recipe, we would be breading the chicken.  I don’t think I’ve crusted anything beside zucchini and French Toast, so this was a new cooking method for me as…

Easy perfect steak

A little while back I bought some McCormick Grill Mates.  I used a few packs for some chicken recipes and they worked great for adding extra flavor.  Since the weather has gotten better, I thought it would be a good time to warm up the grill.  The local Kroger had a sale on steaks, so…

Dean and and I are trying to cook healthy low calorie dishes now since I’ve gained 20 pounds since we married back in October.  20 pounds!  I found this Asian Mango Chicken recipe in the December 2010 issue of Taste of Home magazine.  It turned out delicious! Here’s the recipe: Ingredients 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves…

Three on Three Chili

My work is having a potluck and the only thing I could figure out to bring that wasn’t already on the list was some chili.  Not exactly a side dish, but at least it will be something I won’t mind bringing back home and finishing off. The great thing about chili is, it is very…
