Let me start by saying… when you make this appetizer, be sure to have the recipe handy to pass along to others. It’s a favorite of so many! I asked a co-worker to share this with me probably twenty years ago. This a great appetizer to make for “game day” – the big Super Bowl game is coming soon and if you want something fabulous and something you can prepare the night before – look no further! Now… on to the recipe! Continue reading “Game Day Recipe Favorite! Tortilla Cheddar Rollups!”

I made this recipe on a cold day when something warm and comforting sounded divine. I ran across this recipe (Pinterest to the rescue!), I made a few changes to suit our tastes, and will make this again minus the cheese and will try using brown rice (measurements will be different, so don’t substitute brown rice in this recipe, it cooks for a longer period of time). This recipe was delicious! I’m glad I ran across it!

I posted a recipe that Samantha’s mom (*read story below) shared with the group for Artichoke Chicken (originally from AllRecipes.com), and WOW – is it ever an amazing and very easy recipe. This is the perfect side dish to go along with it. This recipe comes together quickly, thanks to Trader Joe’s Organic Brown Rice found in the freezer section. Approximately three servings and three minutes in the microwave. Toss with the mixture below, and WELLA! The nuttiness of the brown rice and mushrooms are a perfect combination!

We stopped at this restaurant for the first time on Fred’s birthday this year. We’ve always heard rave reviews, and I can see why. The food was excellent as were the people, and it sure is more fun when the place you visit has a good vibe to it.
Minero has an excellent vibe. Continue reading “Add this restaurant to your list: MINERO – Charleston, SC and Atlanta, GA!”

There is a story to this recipe, which I will explain in a bit. The recipe? Artichoke Chicken. This recipe sounded fabulous to me, since I like artichokes, chicken (and artichoke dip!) So I gave it a whirl and WOW! A quick mix of a few ingredients, spread on top of chicken breasts and popped into the oven. *Poof* MAGIC is served! I kid you not!

Not fancy, but delicious. That’s how I would describe Bowens Island, a fabulous restaurant in the Charleston, SC area, very close to Folly Beach (for those of you who are familiar.) Continue reading “Stunning Views and Fabulous Food at Bowens Island – Charleston, SC”

Thanksgiving has so much to do with traditions – family traditions of recipes made year after year, decade after decade, generation after generation. My Grandma’s Chocolate Pie (to die for!) is one of those recipes! It can be tricky when you want to make some of your favorite recipes to take with you when you aren’t having Thanksgiving at your house – so these recipes are all easily portable – and do not have to be reheated, an added plus, especially when the oven could potentially be very full!
