So as you know I got the chance to sample all of Artisana’s Butter. One night I decided to make a Coconut Butter Brown Rice. I mixed in some seared chicken and peas. The combination was outstanding. The coconut butter gave this dish sooo much flavor that you’ll go back for seconds. I will be sharing a lot more…

Fried Pork Chop topped with Mango Salsa
Fried pork chops are super delish. So I was thinking “what would go great with fried pork chops?” Something fresh and light. I decided why not make a fresh mango salsa (which by the way goes great with chicken, tofu or seafood). To go with this dish I also placed some horseradish sauce to give it…
Grilled Pizza
It’s grilling season as we all know. So why not try something different. Pizza!!! YES, you heard me pizza. A lot of people are scared to try this on the grill but it’s acually pretty easy and fast. Take some pizza dough, roll it out, brush on some olive oil and place on the grill. Flip over within…

Mike’s Bayshore Takeout
Another spot that we enjoy while in Cape May, New Jersey is Mike’s Bayshore take out. The Owner/Chef there Mike makes all his food from scratch with so much flavor and love. His seasonings are amazing, and he brings a lot of them back from Egypt. The smell and taste of the foods are one of kind. …
Cod Fish Stew
This cod-fish stew is light and amazing in flavors. I added some baby potatoes, black olives, fresh tomato, chicken stock, onions, garlic and fresh basil. The flavors burst in your mouth with every bite. One thing I forgot to add to this dish was was a slice of a baguette of bread to use for…
Deep Dish Homemade Pizza
Tonight I decided to make a deep dish pizza in this new pan I got to make it. I’m a BIG fan of thin crust pizza but I guess we have to give the thick dough some LOVE too. I went to my local grocery store and picked up fresh frozen pizza dough placed it in the…
Florentine Burger topped with Ricotta Cheese Sauce
It’s summer time, so bring on the burgers. This is one of my favorite burgers that I have made so far this year. Ground meat is mixed with sautéed onions, garlic and baby spinach, then topped with a Ricotta cheese sauce and additional fresh baby spinach. This burger is sure to make your mouth water. The bread…
Loin Lamb Chop with a Sun dried Tomato Risotto
I love Loin Lamb Chops. Tonight I made some with a Peach preserve, horseradish cream, mustard powder and a little orange juice for the glaze. On the side I had some Sun dried Tomato risotto, and a mix of yellow and green zuchinni and muchrooms. What a lovely combination this was. A very light and summery…

Lasagna Love!
Last night I made a different kind of lasagna. Instead of your typical ricotta cheese I made a bechamel sauce. Also made my homemade meat tomato sauce. First you drizzle some olive oil and then some meat sauce then a layer of the lasagna. Follow that with some bechamel sauce with some parm cheese. After that continue with lasagna, meat sauce…
Chicken Topped with Fresh Tomatoes and Onions
I took some chicken breast, dipped it in some egg and whole wheat flour. Next, I placed it in a hot skillet with olive oil, drained it on some paper towels afterwards, and placed it on a bed of herbed couscous. Finally, I topped it with fresh stewed tomatoes, onions and fresh parsley. Another light Spring/Summer dinner. Nothing like feeling light…
