I’d like to say a few words about the Chicken Problem. No, not the one about which came first, the chicken or the egg. The one about how to keep your family from saying, “Chicken again?” when you serve it. See, as a dinner, chicken has a lot going for it. It’s cheap, healthy, hearty, and easy to fix. And most people like it – once in a while. But when you lean too heavily… read more

Creamy Thai Chicken Salad

I’m kind of on a salad kick right now. On a hot summer day, it’s just so nice not to have to heat up the kitchen to make dinner. I can stay a lot cooler making a salad, and everyone else can stay cooler eating it. The biggest problem with salads is that they’re not always that satisfying. A bowl of mixed greens and chopped veggies with a nice light dressing on top is cool… read more

Easy Banana Cream Pie Bars

I’m having a lot of fun coming up with new desserts for summertime. That means chilled, not baked, because who wants to run a hot oven in June? And anyway, a cool dessert is a lot more refreshing on a warm summer evening. After my success with this No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Dessert, I started thinking about what else I could do on the same lines. I didn’t want another cheesecake, so I thought about what… read more

Thai Cucumber Salad

Hot enough for you out there? Seems like just a few weeks ago we were all shivering through an extra-chilly spring, and now all of a sudden, we’re sizzling in the summer sun. What weather like this really calls for is some nice cool salads. And, as we all know, nothing’s cooler than a cucumber. I’ve already got one great cucumber salad recipe, this Homestyle Creamy Cucumber Salad – but I wanted a bit more variety. So… read more

Fully Loaded Burger Bowls

Summertime, as we all know, is burger time. There’s nothing quite like a nice, juicy burger, hot off the grill, with all your favorite fixings – bacon, cheese, and some nice fried mushrooms. Of course, a traditional burger also comes with one other thing: the bun. And for anyone who’s trying to steer clear of carbs, that kind of ruins the whole meal. So for all you carb-avoiders, I’ve come up with a whole new… read more

Instant Pot Beer Can Chicken

Beer can chicken – also known as beer-butt chicken or chicken on a throne – is a classic dish for grilling season. The traditional way to make it this: first, you rub the chicken all over with spices. Then, you pop open a can of beer, drink about half, perch the chicken on top, and set it on the grill as it cooks. This position keeps the bird in the perfect position so it… read more

Easy Lemon Ice Cream Cake

When I was a kid, I thought ice cream cakes were the coolest dessert ever. I mean, come on – cake and ice cream, all in one! What could possibly be better? The only problem with ice cream cake was that you couldn’t just ask Mom to make you one for your birthday or whatever. You had to beg her to buy you one from a fancy store, like Carvel or Baskin Robbins. And at… read more

Easy Beef Stroganoff Casserole

Beef stroganoff is one of those dishes that’s almost as much fun to pronounce as it is to eat. Go on, try it: stroganoff. See what I mean? It sounds like you’re talking about an old Russian count or something. Beef stroganoff actually does come from Russia, but it’s changed a lot since the old country. It started out as just stewed, cubed beef in a sour-cream sauce. But once it came over to America,… read more

No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Dessert

Dessert always poses kind of a problem in summertime. When it’s 90 degrees out, the last thing you want to do is run the oven for half an hour to bake a cake or a pie. So you end up sticking to ice cream and fresh fruit – both very tasty, but you can get tired of them after a while. This No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Dessert is the perfect solution. It’s a real dessert,… read more
