Pico de Gallo {Put The Lime In The Coconut}
I had a salad this week that stopped me in my eating tracks. There was a lot going on with said salad. Which made my mind drift from the company at the table. No disrespect, but whoa what a salad.

Restaurant-Style Salsa
Why have I waited so long to discover how easy AND inexpensive it is to make Restaurant-Style Salsa at home, by simply using your blender?! We love Fresh Tomato Salsa in the summer when the tomatoes are abundant and delicious. But frankly, I’m not willing to pay for over-priced, not all that tasty, supermarket tomatoes during the winter months. Instead we turn to our freezer where we’ve got Homemade Tomato Sauce and to our pantry where we always have canned tomatoes on hand.

Southwest Skillet Corn Fritters {with Avocado Ranch Dip}
College Football Season is upon us. In fact, for our team it’s GAME DAY!! Since we’re a foodie family, Game Day is one more reason to create new dishes. Our inspiration comes from our opponents. Yes, we like to envision our rivals as a meal. For example if we’re playing the Arkansas Razorbacks….we might have a meal of Braised Pork. I’ve been warned that talking College Football is akin to discussing religion and politics. So instead we’ll focus on these Southwest Skillet Corn Fritters {with Avocado Ranch Dip}. We devoured them.

Carne Asada Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits}
I saw this plate of heavenly food in a magazine ad (something very similar to this plate). I knew at that moment I would either have to drive to the restaurant or recreate it at home. That’s when our Marinated Beef Tips {over Jalapeño & Corn Grits} were born.

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.

Fritos Casserole
There was no way on earth I intended to make a Fritos Casserole, never mind admit that I did and share it. It just happened. And it was good and tasty and our Facebook friends asked for the recipe. Which I made up as we went along. But here it is.

Deviled Crab Dip
I’ve been on a sentimental journey lately exploring old family recipes. I could hardly wait to recreate Mom’s Deviled Crab Dip. I actually didn’t remember it all that well, but the ingredients were so yummy and intriguing that I knew we’d love it.

Monterey Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Why not turn this favorite chicken recipe into a grilled cheese? If I can put Spaghetti & Meatballs into a grilled cheese, Monterey Chicken seemed like a natural. Grilled chicken breast with smoky hickory bbq sauce, crispy bacon, lots of cheese, sliced tomato and diced jalapeno & scallion….sounds amazing right?
