Fire Roasted Tomatillo Guacamole
Months and months ago when I was doing a little research on tomatillos for my Salsa Verde recipe, I ‘bookmarked’ a recipe for Fire Roasted Tomatillo Guacamole.

Asian Noodles With Perfectly Seared Sea Scallops
My choice was Asian Noodles with Perfectly Seared Sea Scallops. We found such a bargain on Sea Scallops. Great big juicy sea scallops.

Mushroom Soup {with Cheesy Portobello Crouton}
Here in the sunny south we’ve been experiencing some big weather swings. Cold one day, hot the next. Seems that kind of shift leads you straight into flu and cold season. Yep, that’s right. About 1/3 of my work family is or has been sick. The only thing I could think to do was make soup. Mushroom Soup with Cheesy Portobello Croutons hit the spot.
