Three Beans Baked for Recipe Friday

Last Sunday we had an awesome picnic at church, which was coupled with an opportunity to sign up for a group service project at one of our local homeless and food shelters. Since it’s a Lutheran church it was, of course, a potluck picnic. I...

Grilled Corn on the Cob for Recipe Friday

It’s finally corn on the cob season. It’s early in the season, but there is corn on the cob available nonetheless. I bought some at the vegetable stand that I pass on the way home from church. For several years I’ve talked about grilling corn...

Taco Burgers for Recipe Friday

The other night I was planning to make tacos for dinner, but it was such a beautiful night and was hot in the kitchen so I didn’t want to cook in the kitchen. Yet I had a hankering for tacos. On my way driving home...

Red Beans and Rice for Recipe Friday

Driving home from work the other night I was thinking about what I was going to make it to dinner. I knew we were going to have leftover chicken drumsticks and pork chops that we’d made on the Traeger earlier in the week. But what...

Grilled Asparagus for Recipe Friday

Spring seems to be in hiding here in the Pacific Northwest and we had at least an inch of snow here at our house yesterday morning. Nonetheless, by dinner time the snow had melted and the sky was clear. So we cooked dinner on the...

Hummus and Crackers for (Not Really a) Recipe Friday

I don’t have any new recipe for today, but I thought I’d share my lunch adventures over the past few weeks. In my efforts to be dairy free and wheat free, as well as increase my fiber intake, I have started having hummus and crackers...
