Walking through our standard local grocery store, I noted once they had a frozen bag of assorted seafood. I’m not usually good with frozen seafood. Living where we do, we have access to some pretty fresh critters from the sea. The bag did intrigue me. This is going to sound funny but we had most…

Turkey Posole (Pozole) Rojo Mexican Soup
A happy mistake on a chilly night. Turkey Posole (Pozole) Rojo soup was just perfect.
Beers of the Summer 2018
This summer I chronicled some of my favorite beers from local breweries. Check them out plus my top three.
Bacon Wrapped Pork-loin and Jalapeno Pimento Cheese Grits with Wilted Ramps
One of my favorite meals I made all year. Bacon Wrapped Pork-loin and Jalapeno Pimento Cheese Grits with Wilted Ramps was just perfect.
Chorizo and Chicken Tacos
These tacos are simple and delicious. Cilantro, onions and a squeeze of lime is all you need.
Seared Scallops, Succotash and Tomato and Herb Salad
Scallops are my favorite. They are basically the steak of the sea. They cook in like two seconds. Prepared properly, they are crispy on top and bottom and literally melt in your mouth. Any excuse to eat them when out or making them at home is taken. These were fresh diver scallops, never frozen. Soooo,…
Turkey Burgers Done Right
You’ll love these healthy and delicious turkey burgers with an Asian flare.
Kale and Broccoli Salad with Dried Cherries, Walnuts and Maple Vinaigrette (Superfood Side)

Copycat P. F. Chang’s Chicken Lettuce Wraps
We don’t eat at P.F. Chang’s much any more. Not because it isn’t awesome, but because where it is located. Crazy traffic, crazy people in crazy traffic. We avoid that area. The two things I miss the most are the Kung Pao Scallops and the Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Even the Veggie Lettuce Wraps are awesome….
