A blog featuring some of my favorite recipes
Warning, baking these Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies can be quite costly! In fact, the last time I made them, they cost me $2800! You probably think I’m joking, but I’m not. As usual, I had my furry friends (Mr. Whiskers and Winston) in the […]
Have you ever tried a juicy bison burger? If not, no time like the present! Although bison meat is quite lean, there are still ways to make it juicier, which I share in this recipe. Of all the game animals Scott has brought home over […]
Let me start off by saying that I strongly feel the word “clotted” should never be used to describe a food item. That being said, this easy clotted cream recipe is the Middle Eastern equivalent, known as “gemar,” “gamar,” or “gaymer.” For the purposes of […]
I’m so excited to share this low carb grilled chicken recipe with you. And no, you don’t have to be on a low carb diet to fall in love with this recipe. I say this as I watch my Marine, eating his chicken so fast, […]
What if I was to tell you that you could make restaurant-quality sheet pan chicken fajitas right at home? Would you be interested? If the answer is yes, keep reading!
This is my quick and easy pulled pork recipe. Recipes like this one leave you “non-cooks” without any excuses. This recipe only has a few steps. This means no matter what your cooking skill or level, you can pull this off. I have faith in you!
If you are not Middle Eastern, you might be wondering “what the heck is a kofta?” Is it meat, is it vegetable, or is it some mysterious Middle Eastern ingredient? It’s actually none of those!
My favorite thing about holidays is the traditions attached to them. I guess I’ve always been sentimental, but it seems the older I get, the more sentimental I become. Easter is a special time of year, where we celebrate the fact that we serve a risen Lord.
Like I mentioned in a previous post, I am currently following a low-carb diet. This Assyrian recipe is one of my favorite low-carb breakfast dishes. It’s very simple to prepare, and amazingly good!
A couple of times a year, Scott likes to surprise Nena by bringing home octopus to be smoked in our smoker. It was during a family vacation to Hawaii that she fell in love with “Smoked Tako”, which is what they call smoked octopus in Hawaii.
Chimichurri is a spicy and versatile Argentinian sauce that can be served as an accompaniment to various meats, poultry and seafood.
I have been making these crackers every couple of days ever since an Instagram friend introduced me to a similar recipe, which can be found at her YouTube channel.
Did you know that jalapeño poppers are very easy to make? If you didn’t, stick around, I’ll teach you everything I know. If you’ve ever been on a low carb diet, you know how easy it is to get bored eating the same things over […]
One of my favorite things in the world is coffee. So it’s no surprise that I love using it in any recipe I can get away with, like this chuck roast.
A friend recently gave me some HUGE zucchini that her husband grew in their garden. In the past, zucchini bread would have been my first choice. Now that I’m doing my best to eat healthier and follow a low carb diet, I decided to go with low carb zucchini lasagna instead.
I woke up very excited this morning because today was our long-awaited camping trip! As I was pulling things out of the fridge drawer to pack in the cooler, I noticed some leftover smoked salmon that I had completely forgotten about. An idea instantly popped in my head… Smoked Salmon Pinwheels!
