I’m a sucker for pork. My favorite is a pork chop coated in bread crumbs and fried in a pan. Remember the good old days when you would load a pan full of butter and oil and fry pork chops and chicken to your heart’s content? Those days are gone. These days I save myself and my [...] This recipe comes from Debbie, my coworker and fellow foodie friend. Debbie and I work for our local school district in their technology department. When Debbie attended a meeting where our food services department served a quinoa salad, she just had to try it. In fact, she made the same dish twice [...] I am fortunate to have two wonderful cooks who contribute recipes for me to share with you. Debbie Hough is my coworker and friend, as well as fellow foodie. If you follow my blog, then you’ve heard her name several times. My mother, of course is just that – my mother and a wonderful cook. This recipe comes from [...] Quinoa Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette Quinoa again, you say? I’m afraid so. If you follow this blog, you know that quinoa is one of my favorite foods.

It really is possible to enjoy the holidays without paying for it in January. To keep you going during this busy holiday month, you need a power breakfast. Oatmeal is [...] Tasty Brown Rice and Broccoli When I think back to the days when I was raising my kids, I wish I had done a better job of cooking nutritious foods. My idea of rice then was a box of quick cooking white rice. Hmmmm. I realize we do the best we can at the time, and [...] Nutty Quinoa and Artichokes Last night I needed a side dish that would fit into my cooking with color challenge, so I took out my go-to quinoa, and started hunting through the pantry for some veggies to go with it. If your goal is to improve the nutrition in your diet, maybe lose some weight, you really [...] Want a quick way to get heart healthy salmon on the table? Try this recipe from Real Simple. It uses a very easy glaze of brown sugar and soy sauce, and yet the combination broiled with salmon is fantastic! We added some shrimp and grilled it with the same glaze. Yum! Sweet Soy Glazed Salmon with [...] Rice Cooker I adore my rice cooker! Okay, that’s probably a bit dramatic, but it really is one of the best appliances I’ve ever purchased. Under $25, it makes the best rice. Light and fluffy. The best part is that in the long run, I save money because I don’t spend it on flavorless instant rice. I [...]
