Spicy Chipotle Shrimp Salad
Spicy Chipotle Shrimp Salad recipe Cooking Light, July 2010 This sounded really interesting, and being as it was hot as hell this week, I went with mostly salads.

Three-Step Taco Salad
Three-Step Taco Salad recipe Cooking Light, July 2003 Yeah, it was taco salad. I like the other recipe better for some reason. There were WAY too many black beans. I would cut that in half.

Caesar Salad
Caesar Salad Cooking Light, October 2003 We didn’t use egg substitute. We used two egg yolks. It wasn’t as creamy as I thought it should be. Next time I might use three egg yolks. It was pretty good, though. I think it could use a little garlic and will probably add some next time. Measuring…

Orzo, Corn, and Roasted Bell Pepper Salad
Orzo, Corn, and Roasted Bell Pepper Salad Cooking Light, July 2005 True to form, I didn’t really follow the recipe. I THOUGHT I had roasted peppers in the fridge, but I didn’t.

Day 5…Loves me some Arepas!
Yay for the last day. This has been the longest week. Or at least felt like the longest week ever. I’m tired exhausted. There’s not much in the way of “work” work to do. It’s more follow up and hoping that we can get the magic answer that we’ve been looking for most of the…
Day 3 – Black Fettuccine?
I have no idea what happened. I KNOW I scheduled it for the AM. *sigh* Great. Another morning. Another day. I hope hope hope that today isn’t negative like yesterday was. I CAN.NOT deal with another day like yesterday. I will literally curl up in the fetal position and just cry. Consequently, I wasn’t saying…
Bogota Day 1…or why you don’t get me started on politics.
In case you were wondering, no I didn’t get the same symptoms as last time. Headache, yes. Nausea, no. Feel like death? NO! Thank baby jebus!! I can’t imagine feeling like that EVER AGAIN! The rooms are lux and gorgeous. But I miss Steve. They kind of are wasted on just me. The big bed? …

Molasses does go bad…and a weekly, pantry cleaning recap
Apparently, it does. Or at least mine did. I mean, I’ve had molasses in my cupboard since the dawn of time. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bottle turn like this one did. I mean, it was SERIOUSLY bitter. Like salt mixed with vinegar bitter. I really should have gone with my gut instincts…

Gastronomique Tour de Colombia v2.3
Soooooo, today I am TOTALLY by myself today. My bubble isn’t that big and I am not sure how far I should wander. I got my days mixed up and thought V was going to pick me up today and play tourist with me. Not so much. I have a loaner phone, but there’s an error…
Gastronomique Tour de Colombia v2.2
Today I’m on my own for lunch and dinner. L flew to Miami and A and D don’t fly in until Sunday. True to my hermit self, I work through lunch and just get a sammy from the shop in the cafeteria. I ordered roast beef on pan winzer. Not a clue what pan winzer…
Gastronomique Tour de Colombia v2.1
At some point, I will get to photograph the mountains. Hopefully this weekend I can see them. It’s rained every day this week. *sigh* Speaking of which… We had a meeting at 1. Neither of us had lunch by the time the meeting rolled around and this woman just wanted to explain everything in detail…from…
Gastronomique Tour de Colombia v2.0
I miss my kitchen. I don’t understand how people can live like this!! I long for the feel of a knife in my hand, the smells of something baking in the oven. *sigh* But most of all I miss S and our furbaby! *pout* Being as I know what I eat for dinner is probably…

Have you lost your cheese?
So, I took this online survey about cheese. I was truly hoping to just get a sample of cheese for free in the mail. Well….I’m not sure if that’s going to happen or not. Anyway, they called me and asked if I’d be willing to participate in a cheese research thingy. She didn’t actually SAY thingy, but I’ve…
8 Can Taco Soup
8 Can Taco Soup Again…wandering aimlessly on Pinterest I came across this recipe. My thoughts, “Man! That sounds cheap, easy, and yummy!” I had this great game plan in my head. I was going to make salsa chicken in the crockpot on Monday, have our usual salad day on Tuesday, then use the left over…
Ham and Pineapple Pizza
Ham and Pineapple Pizza Yeah, Hawaiian pizza … *sigh* A few weeks ago I bought this really nice small, sliced ham for a pasta salad recipe. *note to self check to see if that post is here* I only used half of it and threw the other half in the freezer. So when the new…
Salmon Cakes
Salmon Cakes So, I got a little bored with myrecipes.com and decided to search Pinterest for some salmon cakes. Can I just say…it’s really annoying to have 80billion people pin the same stupid thing with NO FECKIN DESCRIPTION!! JEBUS! These intrigued me because of the hash brown usage. I’m thinking I might alter this and…
Mushroom Rigatoni Bake
Mushroom Rigatoni Bake COOKING LIGHT, MARCH 2004 Yes, it’s as good as it looks! It honestly didn’t take all that long to prep. It was more difficult to wait for it to bake. We had salad appetizers. LOL No shiitakes at the store, so I used portabello caps instead. Yes, it was a bit redundant…
Roman-style Chicken
Roman-style Chicken Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis My introduction to this recipe was on my birthday last year. S wanted to make something special for my birthday last year. It was YUMMY even though it took me 6 hours to get home. We’ve made this together since. It’s not quick, but it is tasty and…
Shrimp Fra Diavolo
Shrimp Fra Diavolo January 2010 Yeah…a teaspoon of crushed red pepper is a bit too spicy for me. I couldn’t taste much else. I would cut back on that to make it less spicy so you can actually taste the tomato sauce and shrimp. It was quick to throw together and made for a pretty…
DiGiorno 200 Calorie Pizzas
Yeah, I know I usually do recipes, but I thought I would share this little tidbit with you. I am a Kraft First Taste member and frequently receive coupons to try new products for free. I gotta say, when I took it out of the box I was skeptical. It didn’t look like much and…
Sautéed Halibut with Lemon-Pesto Butter
Sautéed Halibut with Lemon-Pesto Butter recipe Cooking Light, September 2009 Yes, we were without internet for a while. It was sad…and boring. This, on the other hand, was very interesting. I still have some of the pesto butter in the fridge. I think it would make an interesting topping for pasta. Not that pesto on…
Salmon Croquettes with Rémoulade
Salmon Croquettes with Rémoulade recipe Cooking Light, January 2005 I’ve kind of made this recipe before, but for some reason I don’t see it on here. Note to self, buy the canned salmon in the small cans that does not have the bones and skin. O M G I had the hardest time removing all…
Three-Cheese Baked Penne
Three-Cheese Baked Penne recipe Cooking Light, May 2008 I really thought there should be more sauce to this recipe. I cooked the pasta al dente per the notes, but there really wasn’t a lot of liquid for them to continue cooking in. I would add more sauce the next time I made this. I put…
Flatbread Dough
Flatbread Dough recipe Cooking Light, July 2008 I wanted to make this recipe to go with the skillet chicken souvlaki. I wanted a flat bread to wrap the sandwiches in instead of regular pita bread which usually falls apart. So, I divided the dough into four instead of two. I don’t think I put enough…
Fresh Whole-Wheat Pitas
Fresh Whole-Wheat Pitas recipe Cooking Light, March 2009 These were bland. I’m not sure if I put in the right amount of salt. I think I did, but they were really bland and needed more. The dough was easy to make and proof. It was a little on the sticky side even after proofing so…
Skillet Chicken Souvlaki
Skillet Chicken Souvlaki recipe Cooking Light, August 2009 Using my experience with the chicken, peppers and cashews recipe, I butterflied the breasts and then thinly sliced them. Worked like a charm! There weren’t huge slices of chicken in the recipe. The chicken was a little bland. I would marinate it again in some Greek dressing…
Sautéed Sole with Browned Butter and Capers
Sautéed Sole with Browned Butter recipe Cooking Light, August 2009 YUM! O M G this was delicious! It will definitely be on the make again list. We don’t have butter, so I used ICBNB and it turned out just fine. The “butter” browned just like regular butter would have. I was concerned with this, but…
Bow Ties with Tomatoes, Feta, and Balsamic Dressing
Bow Ties with Tomatoes recipe Cooking Light, July 2009 My farfalle fell apart. And no, I didn’t overcook it. It fell apart even though I made it a little more al dente than usual. The last time I made farfalle it shredded to pieces, so I was trying to prevent that this time. Yeah, didn’t…
Sole with Tarragon-Butter Sauce
Sole with Tarragon-Butter Sauce recipe Cooking Light, January 2007 Again, we used flounder. There wound up not being a lot of “sauce” when we were done. Watch it carefully, as it took less time to reduce than in the instructions. We didn’t use white wine, but it would have added a nice layer of flavor…
Parmesan Herb Baked Flounder
Parmesan Herb Baked Flounder recipe Cooking Light, JANUARY 2004 Yeah, not so much. Either there wasn’t enough mayo or there wasn’t the right kind of parm, but the mayo that you “spread” on the fish wasn’t spreadable. It was a paste. So, I added more mayo. It tasted like fish salad and not parmesan herb…
Spanish-Style Shrimp with Garlic
Spanish-Style Shrimp with Garlic recipe Cooking Light, MARCH 2006 These were really good!!! I think they could be a good appetizer, but CTM didn’t agree. I also thought the garlic was going to burn, but I constantly stirred the pan and it sort of toasted instead of burned. I’m sure that’s the key to it…
Chicken Thighs with Olives and Tomato Sauce
Chicken Thighs with Olives and Tomato Sauce recipe Cooking Light, March 2009 Yet again, I just CANNOT bring myself to shell out $4 for a jar of loves, so I used jumbo California olives. You couldn’t really taste them. I’m sure if you used kalamata or oil cured olives, you would. So, the recipe calls…
Grilled Lemon-Bay Shrimp
Grilled Lemon-Bay Shrimp recipe Cooking Light, August 2004 Yeah, still couldn’t find the skewers. *sigh* I’ll have to get some today, though. I had anticipated finding them last night, so I soaked all the bay leaves I had which was okay. I used them in the pot when I boiled the shrimp. Best of intentions……
Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki Sauce
Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki Sauce recipe Cooking Light, March 2003 Since I couldn’t find the skewers, we didn’t make kabobs with the chicken and zucchini. We just grilled the breasts normally. Usually, when there’s lemon in the marinade, I don’t usually taste it. For some reason this time I could taste the lemon, but not…
Parmesan Zucchini Sticks with Smoky Roasted Romesco Sauce
Parmesan Zucchini Sticks with Smoky Roasted Romesco Sauce Cooking Light, July 2008 I made these, but we really didn’t eat them. I tasted a couple and they were okay. Nothing really to write home about. The sticks need longer to cook than in the recipe. I may bring some in tomorrow as a snack and…
Jamaican Chicken Thighs
Jamaican Chicken Thighs Cooking Light, May 2005 I don’t think I’ve ever had jerk style seasonings before. It was easy to make, though. I ground up the ginger and the allspice, beause I only use whole spices with the sweet stuff. Then I mixed in the rest of the spices, making sure to add twice…
Blackened Halibut with Remoulade
Blackened Halibut with Remoulade Cooking Light, APRIL 2008 I love blackened anything, so this was perfect! CTM sprinkled the spice on the fish and we fried them in a nonstick skillet. He cooked them PERFECTLY! The spices were just enough to coat three tilapia fillets and just spicy enough. This one will be on the…
All-Star Pork Meatballs
All-Star Pork Meatballs This is a SparkPeople.com Recipe These were really good! They make 6 HUGE meatballs. I think the next time I make them, I will probably make 12 regular sized ones so I think I’m eating more than I am. They were quite tasty and the glaze on top was yummy!! Definitely on…
Spicy Tilapia with Pineapple-Pepper Relish
Spicy Tilapia with Pineapple-Pepper Relish Cooking Light, APRIL 2007 We had this Tuesday night. That’s our light night as I WI on Wednesday mornings. It was really good. I made some cumin rice to serve with it. I would, however, use crushed pineapple in juice instead of the chunk. The chunks were just too big….
Fettuccine Alfredo
Fettuccine Alfredo Cooking Light, JANUARY 2007 I wasn’t sure about this recipe. I think it needs just a little more Parmesan than called for and maybe a little more milk, though. The sauce was rather thick. Or maybe just a splash of FF half and half. It was rather tasty and we served it with…
Baked Ziti Casserole
Baked Ziti Casserole Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2007 YUM YUM and more YUM! We doubled the recipe was we had about double the ground turkey. It was our first REAL experiment with ground poulty that he wasn’t all eh about. YUM! It’s look weird when you’re putting it together, and it was a little soupy when…
African Chicken in Spicy Red Sauce
African Chicken in Spicy Red Sauce Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2006 Okay, so there are A LOT of spices in this one, but if you do ANY kind of baking AT ALL you have them on hand anyway. I keep that Berbere in my pantry ready to go for the next round. The first time I…
