I love using Asian inspired ingredients when preparing a steak. The salty/sweetness really takes the flavor of the meat to a whole new level. Flank steak seems to work best because it is a thinner cut of meat, but still has a lot of juiciness to it so…

I think everyone's mom or family member had a recipe for stuffed peppers they remember from their youth. Maybe not everyone feels this way, but I always loved stuffed peppers. This recipe is different than my Mother's, but still very very yummy. I mixed i…

I came up with this skillet supper when my children were a bit older and had suddenly become picky eaters. They really liked the southwestern flavors and I liked the short ingredients list and cooking time!

After looking up several rib recipes I decided they were too complicated and had too many steps. I made my own version. I bake them in the oven first for 15 minutes on each side and into the crock pot they go with a few simple ingredients. They fall off t…

I made this and the family really liked it. I did not cook it near as long as it said to but my oven tends to run a little hot. I also baked my meatballs for 10 min before I put them in the casserole.

I recently added a few dishes to my repertoire that are low-carb - that just focus on vegetables and protein. This is one of them. It's quick, easy, very flexible with respect to the type of protein you want to use - and incredibly tasty. Enjoy!

I found this recipe on Pioneer Woman's website and made it for Valentine's Day. It is so wonderful. My guy said it was one of the best things I have cooked for him! Depending on the size of the steaks you can probably get more serving out of the sauce.
