Alligator Etouffee

I can't think of a better day to share this recipe with you all than today.  It's been 12 years ago today since my Dad passed away. I thought it would have been so much easier by now to deal with his passing and accept it but I am convinced that it never gets any easier despite what people tell you. You just move on I suppose... My Dad was a Cajun through...

Burrito Bake

I love this burrito bake recipe for so many reasons. It’s easy to make.  If you can mix soup and milk together and grate some cheese you are basically done! It’s fast! Just a few turns of a spoon then some baking and you’re done. It’s inexpensive! This recipe will cost me about $4.00 maybe less! It’s delicious and better yet you can make it ahead of time. This recipe...

Chocolate Smoothie Dessert (Dr. Oz Recipe)

I recently saw this recipe online. I knew I had pretty much everything on hand so on a whim I made up a pitcher full. The recipe is delicious but dare I say it had a bit too much chocolate in it. I thought the flavor was a bit overwhelming. Next time I make it, and believe me there will be a next time, I would only add a ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder. It’s not...

Brisket Tacos... Repurposing Leftovers!

I made an amazing Coca Cola Brisket last week. It turned out better than I could have ever imagined. One of the things I did with the brisket was I made brisket tacos. I never really thought about a brisket taco until a few weeks ago when I was at a restaurant that had them on the menu. Brilliant! What a great way to use up some leftover brisket. I hate when food...

Coca Cola Crock Pot Brisket

This recipe turned out fantastic. We actually ended up using it for two different meals. This is the brisket that keeps on giving! I got a 12 pound brisket for $10 and we have gotten at leave 6 meals out of it.  I couldn’t be any more pleased with this recipe. I have one more quarter of a brisket that I plan on using exactly the same way. We all loved it. Not only...

BLT Wraps (Paula Deen)

This recipe is delicious! I really loved it. I made it a little different than the directions listed below. I made the dressing in a large bowl then added the chopped lettuce and the bacon to the bowl so that everything was evenly coated I thought it would taste better to have everything combined together. Then I added the salad mixture to tortillas and topped with tomatoes...
