Monterey Loaded Nacho Fries
I know for many families Friday is Pizza Night. At our house we’ve been toasting the end of the work week with a cold beverage and a tray of Nachos. Last Friday we made a big pan of roasted corn & poblano nachos with sausage and queso fresco. They were amazing. Tonight it’s Monterey Loaded Nacho Fries, inspired by our crazy good Monterey Chicken recipe.

Baked Eggs in Clouds
How have I made it this far in life without knowing about Baked Eggs in Clouds? What a fun and easy recipe. So simple that the following pictures and minimal words will guide you through.

Classic Shrimp Cocktail {with Cocktail Sauce}
We were completely spoiled last night with the gift of 7lbs. of fresh off the boat Georgia Shrimp for our birthdays. Two pounds cooked, peeled and ready for Shrimp Cocktail and 5 lbs. to go into the freezer for future Shrimp fests.

Herbed Scrambled Eggs {in Avocado Boats}
There was a cooking show on Food Network a while back that we really liked. I can’t recall the name of it, but the host would always feature the ‘obedient ingredient.’ That’s exactly what I did this morning. I bought a few too many avocados this week so I’m turning them into serving vessels. Our Herbed Scrambled Eggs were quite happy in their avocado boats.

Ceviche {with Halibut, Scallops & Shrimp}
We celebrated Shelby’s birthday last evening. When I asked her what she’d like for dinner she said “one of your amazing Ribeye steaks.” To which I gladly obliged. I wanted to come up with a fun and light appetizer to start us off. I remembered a time when Shelby and I met for lunch at a Mexican restaurant in town. As soon as we sat down she said “you’ve got to try their Ceviche.” I had no idea she shared my love for this chilled seafood salad.

Inside Out Fresh Herb Omelet
This Inside Out Fresh Herb Omelet was my Healthy Choice post-workout meal. Four weeks ago today I arrived at the office with workout clothes in hand (after taking 4 months off). I was committed to getting back into an exercise routine and knew I would need the encouragement of teammates to keep me on track. So when the lunchtime walking crew lined up to head out, I followed right along. Well actually I lagged behind a good bit, but I did it. A 2.61 mile power walk in 40 minutes.

Garlic & Herb Baked Salmon {over Spinach Couscous}
Garlic & Herb Baked Salmon over Spinach Couscous is a go-to staple meal in our house. Or at least it used to be before we became a food blogging family. We easily had this dish once a week and would have to force ourselves to occasionally change up the way we prepared salmon.

Italian White Bean Dip {with Homemade Pita Bread}
I have a treasured folder where I keep paper copies of recipes. Some jotted down on scratch paper, others torn from magazines, and lots printed from the pages of fellow bloggers I admire. This morning I found this Italian White Bean Dip recipe that I had torn from a Weight Watchers hand out….months ago. Time to revisit.

Catalina Salad Dressing
As I continue with my quest to share all the “Classic” Salads I can think of I’m branching out to dressings as well. I hadn’t had Catalina Salad Dressing in years until Friday. I had forgotten how much I love it’s sweet tangy flavor.

Monterey Chicken
I remember sitting outside at a patio table, sipping on a margarita, and soaking in the first glimpse of summer. It was twenty years ago and the name of the restaurant escapes me now but the Monterey Chicken does not.
