Groundouille Turkey Chili

Since I forced Lisa to pick something besides lasagna and chicken for dinner and we decide to do something a little more healthy, she found something based on ground turkey.  Lisa searched on-line and obtained a Ground Turkey Chili recipe from Cooks.com.  Being that I like to make dishes my own and the fact that I…

MexiMojito Cajun Chicken

After a couple of bland meals, Lisa decided that she would find something that would appease my spicy palate.  She decided on a Cajun Chicken Pasta dish from About.com.  Since I’m not a huge fan of pasta, I suggested that we use rice instead of pasta.  Of course, Lisa is probably still a little leery…

Blah-ccoli casserole

Last night I cooked a broccoli casserole dish that I got from Paula Deen’s web site.  We cooked some chicken breasts in a skillet, sliced them up, and added them to the mix.  The result: Blah Maybe I was expecting too much from broccoli.  Maybe that kind of casserole is supposed to be bland.  It…

Beefcake (Meatloaf)

One of the first things I cooked for Lisa was some meatloaf.  Meatloaf is one of my family favorites; at least among the Logan men.  It isn’t something that is served up very often, but it is a very fulfilling meal.  As a bachelor, cooking simple meals for one, that I enjoyed, were high priority. …

Rosemary Butter Sauce Chicken disaster

I picked out a recipe from Taste of Home magazine’s website, and tried it on Dean last night.  It was so bland that Dean had to resort to Cholula Hot Sauce to spice it up.   I ended up saving mine for chicken salad which I ate today for lunch. It can help achieve an erection…

We’re married!

On Sunday, my Dean and I got married in Beaufort, NC.  It’s a small coastal town with gorgeous bays, inlets, and beaches.  Both of our families attended and we had a wonderful dinner afterward.  Dean’s mom and nieces cooked everything.  They made a sweet potato casserole that was delicous.  I’ve got to get that recipe!…

Kick ‘n Smoked Chicken

Due to my work schedule, I am more likely to get home before Lisa.  And on Tuesdays, Lisa is more likely to get home much later than I do.  Being that yesterday was our first “work day” together, we are still getting used to our schedules.  Knowing that Lisa would be exhausted from work and…

Something sweet for my sweetie

Pumpkin Cheescake & Mountain Dew Cake on the horizon… When I’m flipping through the cooking magazines, I can’t seem to veer my focus away from the desserts.  I’ll need to stay away from those before the wedding, so I can make sure I fit into my dress.  I don’t want to look like a stuffed…

Fasta Pasta microwave pasta cooker–a time saver

The Fasta Pasta microwave cooker (http://www.fastapastacooker.com/) was a real time saver for me when I made my lasagna for my fiancé recently.  All I had to do is place the 9 uncooked lasagna noodles into the Fasta Pasta microwave cooker, fill the water up to level 4 line, and set the microwave to cook on…

Cheesagna!

Cheesagna is a lasagna for cheese lovers like me.
