Pasta with Tomatoes, Zucchini & Almonds

Served with breadsticks brushed with olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and fresh ground black pepper.

Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Green Mango (Lettuce Wraps)

This is a Cooking Light recipe, and oh my it was good! Served with some doctored up white rice (cumin seeds, red pepper flakes, chicken broth instead of water, etc).

Cheese! Glorious Cheese!

Adam prepared a wonderful lunch on the weekend - fruit and cheese and wine!

We had goat cheese accompanied by blueberries, blue cheese, a vodka currant cheese, and grapes!

Thai Coconut Curry Fish Soup

Shrimp Po' Boys

Of course, not made with deep fried shrimp, as is the Louisiana way. We just sautéed ours in a bit of olive oil, and sprinkled with spicy Cajun seasoning.

Mmmmm Souvlaki

Chicken Tostadas

A healthy, homemade version.

Our First Voyage into Tofu Land

And it was good!

Adam's new favourite veggie! Seriously, I am a lucky woman.

Waldorf Salad

Mediterranean Pizza

Roasted Chicken with Parsnip Fries

... and SPROUTS!

Steak with Green Pepper Salsa

You heard me. Green Pepper Salsa.

Linguine with Spicy Red Clam Sauce

Delicious - and healthy, too!

Crispy Black Bean Tacos

Ok so this one doesn't have the black beans - they were all gone by the time the camera came out. This is just the coleslaw (with a lime juice/olive oil dressing, green onions and cilantro), feta and hot sauce.

Friday Night Shrimp Fest

The feast in all it's glory




















Baked coconut shrimp (Alana's fave!)

Slow cooker ribs, tangy coleslaw, garlic mashed potatoes and corn bread!

Spicy Chicken Panini

Friday Night Nachos

Marinated chicken, Swiss cheese, charred corn, avocado crema, chipotle mayo, and red pepper strips.

Stuffed Peppers!

Aroborio rice, green onions, garlic, tomato, feta and seasonings.

A Weekend Treat - Hot Breakfast!

Taking a cue from his dad, Adam whipped up a great breakfast this morning - hash browns, scrambled eggs (with hot sauce, of course!), crispy bacon and pineapple chunks.

Fantastic!

We Defy You, Damn Cold!

It's been so cold lately, and we needed to get away from it! Since we can't just jump on a plane to somewhere with sand and palm trees, we tried the next best thing - a summertime bbq meal!

Grilled hot dogs, German potato salad, a handful of Doritos and a big batch of rum punch.

Eaten, not outside under the stars, but huddled under warm blankets in our living room. Stupid winter.

Recipes

Hmmm. It seems we haven't posted an actual recipe in quite a while. How's this for an idea - if you ask for a recipe in the comments, we'll post it! Otherwise, it'll just be tantalizing pics.

Shrimps!
