March 7, 2016 Chews and Brews

Also, I had to get rid of half a squash and…

I have used it in salads and pasta like sausage and butternut squash sauce pasta. Cooking with acorn squash isn’t foreign to me, but doing anything…

February 22, 2016 Chews and Brews

Roast chicken is pretty much a staple in my house. We often will roast a chicken, have dinner and use the leftovers to make salads or sandwiches for lunches during the workweek. I have been playing around with the many spices and herbs I have from Silk Road and came up with this interesting blend that made an irresistible herb rubbed roast chicken!

January 21, 2016 Chews and Brews

Tomorrow, January 22nd, is National Southern Food Cooking day and it only seemed proper to pull together a round up of the tastiest southern food cooking there is out there!

Turkey Ramen Noodle Bowl

January 3, 2016 Chews and Brews

Ahhh, Christmas and New Years is over…. and I still have a giant container of turkey meat in my fridge to use up.

I was trying to find a creative way to use up some of the turkey meat, besides throwing it in the freezer and forgetting about it until summer… Before the Christmas break I went to a new…
