Pati Jinich is one of my favorite Mexican chefs. I love how she blends here Mexican cuisine with American that makes it more than just Tex-Mex. It is in a world of its own. One of her creations is a tamal casserole. I love because it's better than a tamale pie because it's actually made [...]
Let me know in the comments what things you had to give up in your diet that was really hard for you to do. Since the time I started this blog, I have mentioned the food I have had to give up in my life. It started around 2007 when I started getting gastrointestinal distress [...]
This week I had a hankering for my favorite enchiladas, enchilada verde. I used to make these all the time. Shredded chicken, monterrey jack cheese and sour cream with tomatillo salsa. They are also time consuming to make. And they contain dairy. This week I found out that I had to delete some more items [...]
We've finally had the hard frost we've been waiting for here in Michigan. If you haven't heard we have had an unusually high amount of cases of eastern equine encephalitis or EEE.

However, it has too much salt and isn't the best for you. I actually became inspired by a small restaurant in Kalamazoo, Michigan called [...]
This started out as a recipe that caught my eye while scrolling through Facebook. Typically when a recipe uses the word "crack" in the title, it means that it is deliciously addictive. So when I came across a recipe for Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Crack Chicken from Plain Chicken, I had to stop and take [...]
I'm going easy again this week. We are still working on cars. Tony and I are modern YouTube mechanics. We both have some knowledge of cars. The only difference is my dad made me get my hands dirty and do the work, while his dad did not. So we pool our knowledge, look up stuff [...]

I picked this recipe this week because it was simple and from a cuisine I don't do very often. I have done a few African recipes, mostly North African. Digaag Quimbe is an East African recipe for coconut yogurt chicken. I found a recipe for this from Bon Appetit. While this is a chicken stew [...]
