Morrocan Spiced Stuffed Red Peppers

This is from Whole Food’s recipe section of their website.  I love that store. Despite being referred to around here as “Whole Paycheck’, you can find some surprisingly good deals there. I’m lucky enough to live close to this Austin based company’s flagship store in downtown Austin, TX.
 
I made this recipe last night. It [...]

Maple-Chili Glazed Pork Medallions

“Uh…You’re using maple syrup & cider vinegar?” My husband was not expecting this to come out like it did. In fact, I think he was a little scared when he saw what was going in it. I’ve got to tell you though, we both really liked how this came out. It’s a pretty interesting combination [...]

Summer Chili

This came from Lauren’s blog. I, liked her, was a little bit weary of using beer in chili as I am definitely not a beer girl. However, the beer, the lime juice, & the honey all play so nicely with the rest of the ingredients. We had this over brown rice & it was delicious.

Cowboy Chicken Spaghetti

I tried this recipe after digging through Pioneer Woman’s cooking section. I love this lady. You’ll have to check out her site. The way she writes about her cooking, her kids, and her life is so direct, comical, & just plain friendly. Plus, her recipes all seem to look amazing.
