Tj's Maui Wowie Tuna Burgers

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

I got this recipe during a shopping trip at Trader Joe's. They are REALLY good. You can find the teriyaki in other stores, and I think it's important to use this brand. We double the recipe and use three eggs, as that seems to hold things... MORE»

Chicken Breasts in Tarragon Cream

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

This is one of those recipes you will want to bust out for a special occasion or when you are having company. It's been so long since I made it, I can't remember what we served with it. Perhaps some baby potatoes with butter and parsley, and a... MORE»

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

I have enjoyed corned beef and cabbage on St. Patty's day my whole life. I can't remember where I found this recipe, but it's the best I have ever had. My very picky mom completely agrees! The mustard sauce is a nice touch but can be completely... MORE»

Squash and Chickpea Moroccan Stew

I have not had a chance to try this yet. From Ask Aida's "Light & Healthy" episode. You can substitute veggie stock for the chicken stock to make this recipe vegetarian, and of course you can opt not to use the yogurt to make it... MORE»

Cherry Apple Coconut Rice Pudding

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

This dish, created by a dietician and a mom, is an ideal alternative to purchased baby food and the same old toddler-friendly snacks. From mothering.com. I am guessing at the servings because that information was not given on the original... MORE»

Turkey Chili Cheddar Burgers

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

This is adapted from another recipe I found. We love it. I am sure it would be good with beef too, but we use turkey breast because it is so much lower in fat. We serve these on a wheat bun with mayo and tomato....maybe some fries on the... MORE»

Crock Pot Black Bean Burritos

(4 reviews) Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

This recipe is insanely high in fiber and protein, but very low in fat. It has become a family favorite and we have it almost every week! We love this on warm flour tortillas (high fiber if you can find them), and serve it with fresh avocado,... MORE»

Basil Oil

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

This is perfect for those times when you want a hint of basil but don’t want to overpower the flavors of whatever you serve it with. Try dipping bread in it, tossing it with steamed green beans and sea salt, or pouring it over a cold summer soup,... MORE»

Too Much Chocolate Cake

(2 reviews) Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

I am posting this for safekeeping as it is our family's favorite cake recipe. It is very similar to a few others here on Zaar but IMO it's the best! The mini chips don't sink to the bottom, but regular chips will do just as well. I prefer to... MORE»

Bison Marinade

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

I'm guessing I got this from Emeril, as it mentions "essence" in the recommended cooking preparation. All I remember is that it is REALLY GOOD. I don't have a size of cut for you but I seem to remember that we used a flat-cut roast. MORE»

My Favorite Salad

(1 reviews) Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

I just love this. You can alter it to your taste with the choice of nuts, but I think that sliced almonds are perfect. I serve this with dressing Kittencal's Balsamic Vinaigrette, after omitting 3/4 of the oil. All of my amounts are estimates, as I sprinkle the... MORE»

The Manhattan

Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

Rye whiskey is the connoisseur's starting point, but bourbon is not without its merits. Martini & Rossi Rosso (sweet vermouth) is recommended. Store it in the refrigerator. Some bitters and a simple garnish and you have a fantastic... MORE»

Skillet Lasagna

(2 reviews) Posted by Melissa and Her Pants  

Meatloaf mix is a combination of ground beef, pork, and veal, sold pre-packaged in many supermarkets. If it's unavailable, use ground beef. Sometimes I also use ground turkey. Use a 12-inch nonstick skillet with a tight-fitting lid for this recipe. MORE»
