Rosemary & Thyme Crusted Prime Rib Roast

March 31, 2012 4 Comments

The last time I ate prime rib was at Christmas, when we were visiting Dan’s family. It was amazingly delicious, and I’ve been wanting to reproduce it in my kitchen since then. But, prime rib roasts are huge and it’s just me and Dan in the house most days, so I haven’t really been too…read more »

Baked Chicken Roll-Ups with Light Mushroom Cream Sauce

March 16, 2012 8 Comments

So Dan has abandoned me for the snowy slopes of Tahoe this weekend. Yeah. Weather’s finally getting really awesome in Virginia and the guy voluntarily leaves all this warmth and sunshine for a place buried under six feet of snow. [Shakes head] Dan’s idea of fun may be rolling around in a big pile of snow,…read more »

Rosemary Fried Chicken

February 19, 2012 13 Comments

Planning a meal for a dinner party is always kind of stressful for me. For one thing, I’m constantly worried there won’t be enough food, so I inevitably over-cook. I blame that on my mom — at Christmas one year she underestimated her guests’ appetites and had to resort to stealthily reheating leftovers from the previous night’s party…read more »

Crock Pot Chili

November 29, 2011 12 Comments

Hello, all! Hope your Thanksgiving was as fun-, food-, and family-filled as ours. Well, maybe not quite as much “fun” — I certainly hope nobody else was stuck at the airport for 9 hours on Turkey Day. But that’s a story for another day. Today I want to talk to you guys about Crock Pot Chili…read more »

Omurice (Japanese Omelette Rice)

November 9, 2011 4 Comments

Dan and I have been eating a lot of cookies lately. Cookies for breakfast, cookies with lunch, cookies in between meals, and cookies for dinner. Who’s surprised? That’s just what happens when we buy jumbo cookies from BJ’s, and then I go on a baking spree.  Not that we’re complaining, of course — neither of us…read more »

Chicken Pesto Pizza

November 4, 2011 7 Comments

I’m guest posting again on Milli’s blog today, and I’ve decided to share my recipe for Chicken Pesto Pizza. When I was working at the courthouse, one of my favorite things to get for lunch at the Judge’s Dining Room was the Chicken Pesto Sandwich. Grilled chicken, thick slices of fresh mozzarella and spinach sandwiched…read more »

Chili-Garlic Marinated Chicken

November 2, 2011 Leave a Comment

Have you ever gone to a Chinese restaurant, looked at some of the menu items, and thought “who the hell came up with these names???” Sure, the dishes probably sound more delicious in Chinese, and we all know that things get lost in translation…but still. Surely someone could come up with a more appetizing name…read more »

General Tso’s Tacos

October 26, 2011 4 Comments

OK, so my original promise to my friend Peng was that I’d take the General Tso’s chicken I made a couple days ago, wrap it in a flour tortilla with some fried rice and kimchi, and create a “ChiPanda Burrito.” Despite my reservations about the deliciousness of such a thing, I was gonna make it….read more »

General Tso’s Chicken

October 24, 2011 39 Comments

My friend Peng has been bugging me to make General Tso’s chicken for several months now. He lives in California and is really into the Asian-Mexican fusion thing, so he’s fixated on the idea of a General Tso’s burrito with fried rice and kimchi. I don’t know how I feel about that, but I’m nothing…read more »

Perfectly Mouthwatering Pot Roast

October 7, 2011 2 Comments

So apparently The Pioneer Woman has upped the ante on being awesome and landed herself a show on the Food Network. And yes, she is just as adorably quirky on TV as she is on her blog, her cowboy husband is a hunk, and her kids are frickin’ angels. I want to be her when I grow…read more »
