Build a Better Burger
Who doesn’t love a good, juicy burger right off the grill? While the traditional lettuce, tomato and onion are great toppers, I enjoy thinking outside of the box when it comes to building a delicious burger. This week at the store we put together a display in the produce department with lots of different fruits … Build a Better Burger
Chicken Chilaquiles
I haven’t met many people that don’t enjoy a hearty Mexican dish. When Josh and I traveled to Mexico last March we ate chilaquiles every morning for breakfast. Although it’s commonly even for breakfast topped with an egg, I love it for any meal! It’s so comforting and it’s one of the easiest meals you … Chicken Chilaquiles
Chicken with 40 Garlic Cloves
April 19th is National Garlic Day! Garlic is not only healthy for you, but it adds flavor to so many dishes. Try this dish for a delicious date night or Sunday dinner.

Sweet and Spicy Apricot Glazed Pork Loin
I’m a big fan of any food that is sweet and spicy. This recipe especially stands out! The pork is tender and juicy and the glaze is super addictive.

Any variety of fresh shrimp will do for … Louisiana Gulf Shrimp Jambalaya
Blackened Tilapia Sandwich with Cilantro Lime Mayo and Fresh Mango Salsa
Right when we thought it was getting warmer, here comes another dump of snow! Somewhat ironic that the very same day we started our tropical sale at work. I love any food that makes me feel like I’m on a vacation. To help the customers get a taste of paradise, I prepared a blackened tilapia … Blackened Tilapia Sandwich with Cilantro Lime Mayo and Fresh Mango Salsa
Moroccan Spiced Skirt Steak Tacos
I figured it was only fair to my meat lovers to post what I made for dinner tonight. Red meat is sometimes seen as an unhealthy choice, but it doesn’t have to be. This meal uses lean beef which fills you up quickly and provides less than 10g of fat (mostly the “good for you” … Moroccan Spiced Skirt Steak Tacos
Fish Tacos with Spicy Mango Salsa
After days of heavy eating, I start to crave a lighter meal. The day after Christmas we decided to make fish tacos which has turned into one of our favorite meals (even my fiance’s grandparents loved it!). The filling ingredients are very versatile – you can use any firm fish that will stand up well … Fish Tacos with Spicy Mango Salsa
Braised Short Ribs with Cheesy Polenta
So this year, Thanksgiving turned into a two day event. The first day we had the traditional turkey dinner and sides which was delicious, but additional family members were coming to visit the next day and I wanted to cook something decadent but completely different. Braised short ribs are just that. The red wine sauce … Braised Short Ribs with Cheesy Polenta
