Walking into the grocery, I had no ideas…until I noticed pork tenderloin on sale. After a long weekend we really just wanted something light and refreshing. This coconut jasmine rice is very light and the edamame adds a bit of crunch. This is an easy, light meal. HA, too funny! After writing this entire post,…

Pork Chops au Poivre, Mushroom Ragu, Wilted Baby Spinach and Creamy Polenta
Quick, easy and delicious…unless you don’t dig on swine, there is no reason not to make this meal. I’ve been making this meal in different variations for years. I finally remembered to snap a photo (let’s not get into how bad of a photographer I am). Can’t you just call it pork chops with pepper?…
Sweet Corn Soup and Grilled Cheese with Bourbon-Bacon Jam
Yes, that’s right Bourbon-Bacon Jam. Make this now if you like bourbon and bacon. I got the basis of this meal from Bourbon Country magazine (Go figure, right?). I was obviously intrigued by the bourbon-bacon jam, but really the whole meal sounded great. I tweaked it a good bit, like I served the soup warm…
Herb, Garlic, Lemon Roasted Chicken with Tuscan Farro Salad
Another example of “on hand” ingredients thrown together to a great result. The chicken is good. I’ve made it a ton. The salad, well I thought I had totally made it up until I started Googling it on the interwebs. It turned out to be a pretty common Tuscan thing, so there you have it….
Squid Ink Pasta and Fettuccini Frutti di Mare
We love seafood and we love pasta. If you’re like us, then you’ll love this dish. Inspiration #1. My wife has a thing for bread and pasta. She craves carbs. One of our favorite local Italian restaurants, Giovanni’s (in Greenville, SC) serves this outstanding Frutti di Mare (fruit from the sea or seafood). I wanted…
South Carolina Shrimp and Grits
A southern tradition, shrimp and grits is perfect any time of year. This is my version and a little non-traditional but delicious all the same. Definetly low-country based, my version uses Poblano and Serrano peppers instead of bell pepper (more traditional). Bacon (a food group and complete sentence on its own). More traditional recipes call…
Baked Gnocchi with Prosciutto and Spinach
This was an experiment gone so right. Try it, tonight. With mostly items on hand, the recipe kind of came together. I had some gnocchi from Rio Bertolini’s that had been in the freezer for a while and I didn’t want to waste them. I had a mostly full jar of Mario Batali’s Arrabbiata sauce….
My Ultimate Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwich
I use any excuse to use Niman Ranch Applewood Smoked Bacon. It is one of my favorite products. Combine that with Applegate Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese, local eggs, arugula and fresh ciabatta bread. This is my favorite breakfast sandwich right now, by far. I don’t eat breakfast very often. I’m lucky if I get a…
Chicken, Shrimp and Udon Noodle Soup
My take on chicken noodle soup. This was an unbelievable throw together meal. The weather was chilly and we wanted something soothing and comforting. What’s more comforting than chicken noodle soup? I had some leftover rotisserie chicken, frozen shrimp, and box of udon noodles that had been in the cabinet for a while (I’ve been…
Seafood a la Wando
If you are here for the recipe to Hank’s Seafood a la Wando. Skip this one and try my REBOOT, it is MUCH better. Seafood a la Wando (Reboot) One of my favorite dishes in Charleston, SC is the Seafood a la Wando at Hank’s Seafood. I have had it many times and it never…
