Shrimp and Mushroom Angel Hair Pasta Alfredo

I owe the creation of my Shrimp and Mushroom Angel Hair Pasta Alfredo Recipe to my daughter, Stella.  We were talking the other day and she said she was really wanting some creamy pasta with shrimp.  I was going with my sister to Birmingham for her doctor’s appointment so I thought I would go by Restaurant Depot and pick up some shrimp.  Unfortunately, the only wild caught shrimp they had out was a 5 pound bag of frozen shrimp that...

Fish Tacos

  I have finally found the perfect fish for fish tacos.  I wanted to try making them with Cod but they didn’t have any at my grocery store so I  bought some pollock.  They were frozen filets but you would never have guessed it by the time I spiced up my batter.  They were the perfect texture.  Nice and flaky and with the crispy batter.  I really, really wish you could taste them from the picture!  To give you an...

Parmesan Skillet Bread

What is more yummy than a good roll?  A good roll topped with Parmesan cheese.  If your family loves cheese as much as mine does, then my Parmesan Skillet Bread will be a hit with all the cheese lovers in your family.  Everyone knows that I am a cheese head.  You can open my fridge anytime and find at least 5 or more different cheeses.  I have never found a cheese that I didn’t love.  You probably figured that out...

Kısır

Kısır is a delicious and light salad that can also be served as a meze (Turkish appetizer).  You start out with fine bulgur wheat and add in chopped tomatoes, parsley, mint, green onions, peppers, pepper paste, lemon juice and/or pomegranate molasses, olive oil and salt. You can find the pomegranate molasses online at Bakkal International or at most Middle Eastern Grocery Stores.   This dish is perfect for a picnic because it can be served chilled or at room temperature....

Kiymali Toscana or Tuscan Kale with Ground Beef

  I know I go on and on about the Buford Highway Farmer’s Market but my sister and I really love it.  I got a great bunch of Tuscan Kale this past weekend and I knew I wanted it to make Kiymali Toscana or Tuscan Kale with Ground beef.  It is a different spin on Kiymali Ispanak. This recipe is so easy that you could easily have this on the table in 30 to 40 minutes.  I will say that...

Meatloaf

Who loves Meatloaf?  Not the school lunchroom kind but the yummy, meaty, full of flavor kind!  I know I do and I had been thinking about how good it would be for dinner for several days.  Well, last night I decided to go ahead and make one.  Boy was it goooooodddd.  I served it with mashed potatoes and a green salad.  Nothing is better than some good old comfort food but for the record, it was even better today as a...

Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dip

  Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dip Since the State of Alabama was shut down by our 6-9 inches of snow, there was a whole lot of nothing going on outside.  Boredom quickly set in so what else was left to do except snack.  Luckily,  I had bought some Ruffles and Cheese It Grooves the other day.  After sitting here watching my “show”, Paramparca over the internet for a couple of hours, I decided to get off my behind and make...

Decadent Chocolate Cherry Cake

  If you have been reading my blog for a while, you might remember that one of my best friends from High School, Angie aka Ange is a Valentine baby.  Since a few lucky people had Valentine’s Day plans, I decided to make my Decadent Chocolate Cherry Cake for Angie on Valentine’s Day Eve which this year happened to also be Friday the 13th.  Since she is a Valentine baby, I wanted to make something different from just a chocolate...

Downtown Gadsden’s Annual Chili Cook-0ff

  For the past seven years, I have thought to myself (and maybe said aloud if the truth be known), “I think I will enter the Downtown Gadsden’s Chili Cook-off this year.”  Each year, something came up and I never followed through with entering.  Well, this year I made up my mind and entered.  It was held this past Saturday, February 7th and the weather was gorgeous.  The organizers of the event said that they had more entries this year...
