Sure. No problem. 
So pardon the photography as I tried to [...]

Salsa Verde was by far, Greg’s favorite salsa of the week!  I roasted the tomatillos and peppers on the grill before adding them to the salsa.  This was the one salsa that I put in the food processor to create a puree, instead of a mixture of diced veggies.  Even with taking the time to [...]

I am originally from Texas, and my family always has traditional black-eyed peas on New Years Day for luck.  Hoppin’ John is a dish with peas and rice, usually with bacon or ham.  However, I like black-eyed peas year round because they are a great way to get protein and fiber.  This recipe incorporates the [...]

One of our ‘go to’ dinners is a quick and easy quesadilla.  No specific recipe required – look in the fridge – presto quesadilla!  Tonight we had some grilled chicken, reduced fat mexican [...]
