Mojo fajitas

Hungry yet?

This was one of the prettiest dishes! We had a couple straggler peppers in the garden and some yummy skirt steak in the fridge.  Add in some shrimp, some onions, some mojo sauce and a squeeze of lime, and life is good.

It was the weekend so the Yankee and I made this together. Into [...]

Chili

This, like a lot of my recipes, is cobbled together from so many different recipes and word of mouth that I’m not even sure where it started. It involves my Mama’s concoction of spices, though, so it’s awesome. And spicy. Feel free to tone down the spices and add more later if it looks like [...]

Homemade corn tortillas

I have a new toy! After doing a few batches of flour tortillas rolled out by hand, I realized that, um, I’m not very good at rolling out an actual circle. I bought this cast iron tortilla press from Amazon and I love it! I went with cast iron rather than lighter weight aluminum because [...]

Have you ever looked at the clock and realized it’s 5:00 and you were going to make a loaf of crusty bread for supper but now [...]

Krispy Kreme bread pudding

Or you may be thinking that life is short, and you really should eat a big ol’ mess of Krispy Kreme bread pudding.

It’s always good to [...]

Cheeseburger pie

We were drowning (drowning I say!) in frozen hamburger patties. And there are only so many burgers a girl can eat (no, really), so I decided to re-purpose some of the beef. And there was my big ol’ cast iron skillet, lying in neglect, not having been used since… um….  last night. For [...]

Fooling around with cornbread

Does this make me Sandra Lee?

My in-laws were in town and I wanted to make some cornbread to go with the tortilla soup. The Yankee likes his cornbread total Southern style, no foolin’ around with it.

The Yankee wasn’t here.

So, in the names of convenience and experimentation, and inspired by a recipe a friend [...]
