Some nights it is just easiest to throw everything into the oven at once and with one dish have all of dinner ready. Luke's meatloaf is one of those dishes but between chunks of cheese and torn pieces of whole wheat bread it was getting to be higher in calories per serving than we were…
Autumn Apple recipes
On Tuesday I said I'd share what we'd do with all the apple fest apples. Here's everything apple made with those crispy northern spy's: 1. Apple Chips First thing when we got back last Saturday I got out my new hand-dandy apple slicer and peeler and cut up 3-4 apples. Seperating them into rings I stuck…
Crock-pot Chicken Enchilada Soup
Adding to my fall favorite recipes (see fall food round up) is a new crock-pot soup recipe I've been working on. Much like our Lime Chili Chicken Soup (crock-pot lime chicken chili soup ) this one is inspired off of a Chili's restaurant soup. I have always like the Chicken Enchilada soup. After awhile I start to…
Fall Recipe Round-up and Competition
Today we are in Syracuse for the first time on a business trip. Luke will be attending a state wide nursing teaching day and since I am still waiting to hear back on the job interview last week (see a teacher without a classroom), I figured I'd come along and explore the area. I am…
Gluten-Free Low Cal. Chicken Marsala
Luke loves mushrooms and I can't say I dislike them either so awhile back I decided to try to make chicken marsala at home. If you don't know chicken marsala is a typical Italian dish in which the chicken is parmesan crusted and pan-fried served over angel hair pasta with a creamy mushroom sauce (usually made with…
Greene’s Gluten-free Granola Bars
On weekday mornings it's just easiest to grab a breakfast bar and a cup of coffee when starting the day. But because I have food allergies to barley and tree nuts, finding a breakfast/granola bar that I can eat can be a challenge. Usually gluten-free bars create texture with tree nuts and bars without tree-nuts often…
Raspberry Cheesecake Popsicles
About two week's ago I shared my second popsicle recipe of the summer (see Tropical Banana Creamsicles). In that post I hinted at trying two new recipes but only gave you one. (Did anyone read that post carefully and notice this detail?) Well here's the second one. I happened upon one of those rare occasions…
Greene’s Tilapia Fish Tacos
So short update before I begin sharing the yumminess. This week we have had temperamental internet access and have kept busy decorating, glueing, folding, and as anticipated running to the crafts store again and again. Countdown is now T- minus 2 days until my brother's wedding!!! Today we transition from work to festivities with a…
Homemade Pico De Gallo
Last week I gave you the recipe for our some like it hot: kicking mac n' cheese and awhile back I posted a picture of a new summer time meal: fish tacos (see stars hollow, fireworks, and minions) both use an essential piece: my homemade pico de gallo (which I promised last week I'd share the recipe for). I make…
Some like it Hot: Kickin’ Mac n’ Cheese
Who doesn't enjoy good old fashion mac n' cheese? Luke and I love our pasta but we also like our food hot (let's just say Luke's "medium" salsa would be a kick in the pants for most). So I couldn't help adding some kick to this classic comfort food. But what do you do when…
