Mango Crock Pot Chicken
Posted by catherine in Main Dishes on 30. Jun, 2010 | 3 Comments
“Hi. I’m Mango Salsa. You can find me at the local Costco if you live in Utah. Maybe elsewhere if you’re lucky. Look for me in the refrigerated section. I’m pretty good with just chips, but I rock out when you mix me with chicken and Dr. Pepper (I know a certain blogger who [...]
Pancakes
Posted by catherine in Breakfast on 29. Jun, 2010 | 0 Comments
Ahhhh….pancakes. My favorite breakfast food. Right along with bacon, eggs and sausage. And Winchell’s donuts, which we have none of in Utah.
No, I don’t eat that way for breakfast all the time. Or even most of the time. But a girl can daydream, right?
So, back to pancakes. It took me many years to perfect [...]
Pasta n’ Cheese…not from a box
Posted by catherine in Main Dishes, Side dishes on 28. Jun, 2010 | 0 Comments
Don’t get me wrong, I like the fakey flavor of the macaroni and cheese you can find in a blue box. I’m oddly comforted by Kraft Dinner, as our Canadian friends call it. I’m not, however, thrilled with additive-laden ingredient list. After some experimenting, I finally figured out how to make this using simple [...]
How’d I do that?
Posted by catherine in Blog, Random Thoughts on 25. Jun, 2010 | 0 Comments
I’m always amazed by those folks who write massive volumes of cookbooks. And slightly suspicious. I mean, how can one person come up with all those original recipes?
Now I know. I think.
I never thought in a million years I would have enough material to put together a website with my own recipes. After [...]
Pico de Gallo

When given a choice, I’ll take this delicious concoction over plain ol’ salsa any day. Fresh tomatoes and cilantro make a huge, huge difference.
I’ve tried a million versions and settled on one that seems to work well for our family. I love tomatoes and so this recipe will seem very heavy on this fruit-called-a-veggie. I [...]
Chicken Curry

[I wish I had a picture of this beautiful dish that has a lovely shade of summer yellow! But alas, my camera went AWOL for the day]
This past weekend I dared to make Curry Chicken for the very first time. Or Chicken Curry. I don’t know what you’d call it since I’m a novice when [...]
Vita-Mix blenders
Posted by catherine in Tools on 13. Jun, 2010 | 0 Comments
It’s summertime, which means I’m using my Vita-Mix blender more than my oven these days. The abundant fresh produce just begs to be made into a smoothie. I also love to use my blender for soups, dips, batters, and the list continues. I even grind wheat in my Vita-Mix. This little amazing piece of gadgetry [...]
Hummus

A simple dip using basic pantry ingredients. Except for the raw sesame seeds. You’ll need to make a trip to Good Earth for those.
Here I go again. . .

Another website in an busy blogosphere. Why?
