We just had a Teriyaki Madness chain open up here in Great Falls and everyone loves it! I have to say I thought it was pretty decent myself. However, I’m a do it yourself gal in the kitchen and when you cook up almost 8 pounds of pork shoulder, grill 5 pounds of squash, 12 […]

Dill Pickle and Horseradish Potato Salad
At home we just call this “Jen’s Potato Salad”. Jen is my bestie, next to McGyver she is my soulmate. How lucky I feel to have a friend that I can share, unabashedly everything. Besides being a great confidant, she’s a pretty awesome cook too. When we were stationed together in Germany she made her […]
Icelandic Fish Balls {Fiskibollur}
I know, snigger, snigger she said fish balls. I don’t think I’ll ever out grow my juvenile sense of humor. Fish balls-must be a small meal…Icelandic fish balls-must be cold… Okay so I won’t give up my day job. Evidently having 4 boys and a husband in the family has affected my funny bone. Ball […]
Layered Greek Dip {Secret Recipe Club}
It’s that time again, and whew I made it! Last month I was a week off and totally messed up my Secret Recipe Club reveal. For those of you visiting the first time. SRC is a food bloggers club where we are secretly assigned another blog and make one of their recipes. Then we all […]
Corn Fritters with Avocado Salsa – SRC Reveal
I think this is my first food post since Secret Recipe Club last month! I’m delighted to say that this recipe is a great one to come back with. If you haven’t heard me talk about SRC before, it’s a bloggers club that works a lot like a Secret Santa. Each member is assigned another […]
Lobster Verrine
For Valentine’s Day, it was Lobster Palooza at our house (expect several more recipes). I wanted to make something special, out of the ordinary and luxurious. Then lobster tails went on sale…we bought 10. That’s 10 tails for 3 people, nearly ridiculous, but only nearly. The tails were small, not langoustine small, but definitely on […]
Happy St. Patties Day – A Daring Cook’s Challenge
No, I’m not having any holiday confusion. I know it’s St. Valentine’s Day but it is also The Daring Cooks challenge for this month…patties! Get it…Saint Valentine’s Day, Patties…heart shaped patty? The Daring Cooks’ February 2012 challenge was hosted by Audax & Lis and they chose to present Patties for their ease of construction, ingredients […]
Sofrito with Beans and Rice
Sometimes I just know what I want, I crave it, think about it, plan it, prepare it and eventually devour it with delight. Other times, it’s all about whatever I have left in the fridge that absolutely needs to be used up. Other times, meal decisions are based on time, and way too many times […]
Sun Dried Tomato, Artichoke and Goat’s Milk Brie Tart
Have you ever noticed how some foods are just naturally beautiful? Or that the colors of the Italian flag make you hungry? There is something about the red, green and white combination that is so utterly and visually mouthwatering!
Venison Sausage and Chestnut Stuffing
“Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose” Jack Frost has certainly been nipping at our noses here Montana, actually, I think he’s been biting our noses off. Our grounds are snow covered and in the last week we’ve had temperatures as low as 7°F. “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire” […]
