Thai Shrimp Coconut Curry
We love getting takeout, and one of our favorites is Thai food. Sometimes nothing beats the ease of picking up dinner on the way home, but often it is worth saving some money and also healthier to make it at home. This Thai Shrimp Coconut Curry tastes even BETTER than...
Cheesy Baked Ziti
Baked Ziti is delicious but CHEESY BAKED ZITI is even better! This is such a great family dinner and makes some of the best leftovers EVER! Sometimes I make this just to have the leftovers! Just start by browning the meat with lots of garlic. Throw the sauce...
Marry Me Soup

Quick And Dirty Birria Tacos
Birria Tacos are THE THING! They are based on the sauce (or consommé) from Birria Stew, a fabulous dish from the Mexican state of Jalisco. The meat is flavored with the sauce, the tacos are cooked nice and crispy and THEN the tacos are dipped in the sauce with each...

Best Chicken Salad EVER
I have served some variation of chicken salad over the years...at parties, luncheons, wedding receptions and so on. It's always a hit. Make lettuce wraps, sandwiches or serve with crackers. After many years and many adjustments, HERE IT IS. The BEST. I don't...
