Things are moving along at the new house. However, the huge pile of beige tile we had in our garage is now down to nothing. This means we had to pull up tile in a part of our current house to place down in our new one. Now I have a bare floor that needs [...]

Beet Chili
I never thought I would ever be using beets in a chili. It's one of those ingredients that doesn't scream "chili" to me. No matter. I still have extra beets to use up and am game for something new. I am starting with a recipe from Wholesome Family Living for Superfood Chili. This chili recipe [...]
Beef Stroganoff Casserole
To say I love Beef Stroganoff is an understatement. When I was a kid, I almost always chose this dish as my dinner on my birthday. I wouldn't turn it down today, either. Why do I love this dish so much? It is creamy, beefy, and filling. I've made many different versions of this dish, [...]
Kharcho: Georgian Beef Stew with Walnuts
This recipe comes from the former Soviet republic of Georgia. Georgia became independent of the Soviet Union in 1991. There are several different regions with their own unique dishes. One of the most famous Georgian dish is Khachapuri, which is an egg and cheese filled yeast leavened bread. There are many others. If you want [...]
Turkish Beans with Pickled Sweet Peppers
I am ALWAYS looking for new recipes. However, I love it even more if I discover a new way to obtain them. As you probably know by now, I love America's Test Kitchen. Since Christopher Kimball left the show a while back, I never really followed him. That is until now. If you never heard [...]
Black Pepper Beef and Cabbage Stir-Fry
I just celebrated by 44th birthday and it made me think about how some people think getting old is something we just do. I am older, but not old. Some parts of aging, like grey hair, perimenopause, and some limitations to my workouts were expected. Do we really have to "get old". For every passing [...]
Beef-Like Stew
Since becoming a vegetarian, I still miss some of my favorite meat-based dishes. Beef stew is one of those dishes. Tony and I definitely like meat. No doubt about it. When it comes to types of vegetarians, I find there are three types: the never liked meat folks, the former meat eaters, and the junkatarian. [...]
Chili Colorado
I saw this recipe demonstrated on Bon Appetit's YouTube page and knew I had to try it. I have more meat to deal with in the freezer, so this was the perfect recipe. I am taking a recipe from Chili Pepper Madness and making some adaptations. This includes making this in a slow cooker. The [...]
Mole Chili Con Carne with Kahlua
I decided to go Tex Mex this week. Chili just sounded good. Not just any chili. Sugar Dish Me came up with a most interesting chili. She made a riff on Chili on Carne. It adds the complex flavors of mole and a bit of sweetness from Kahlua. Kahlua is a coffee liqueur that is [...]
Kenyan Beef And Potato Pilau
I was really tired on a Friday night and was vegging out watching YouTube after a long work week. While I was surfing for videos to watch, I caught a Tasty video about African party rice recipes. I love a good rice recipe. I also love a good ethnic recipe. I had never heard of [...]
