My kids have a thing for hot dogs. Actually they have a thing for any kind of processed meat, or what I like to call “pink” meat. Hot dogs, sausages, Spam (in case you didn’t know, Hawaii is the Spam capital of the world). Healthy diet huh? I try not to make it too […]

I found this recipe watching Rachael Ray’s 30-Minute Meals show on the Food Network a while back when I was on maternity leave with my son. It looked so simple and I had all of the ingredients in my fridge (except for the phyllo). I tossed it together for dinner that night and just served […]

This recipe comes from Rachel Ray’s Cooking ‘Round the Clock cookbook. I love pasta salad and usually make a more simplified version with rotelli pasta and Italian dressing, but had to try this because it sounded so good! Dr. DreamyMcSteamy and I really enjoyed it and it made a nice light dinner […]

We all enjoyed this dinner a lot, although I have to confess that I made some substantial changes to this recipe. Instead of tuna I used canned chicken (I have an aversion of seafood so I will not eat it or make it), fresh thyme took the place of tarragon (could not find […]

I had tested this Rachael Ray recipe with hopes that it would make a good camp meal. The Turkey Kebabs were very easy to prepare and smelled delicious while cooking but unfortunately, the end result was not that good. As expected the kids were not impressed with the grilled pears. “Mommy, can you […]

Wow! My husband, TSO, gave Spiced Grilled Chicken a 5 out of 5 rating. This is another recipe from the June-July 2008 issue of Every Day with Rachael Ray. I almost didn’t make it but I’m a sucker for a recipe with a short list of ingredients. The dinner from […]

I’ve made this recipe from Rachael Ray’s Cooking ‘Round the Clock cookbook a couple of times and Dr. DreamyMcSteamy and I really enjoy it. Can’t say the same for my son though. He refused to touch any of it. I have no idea why since there’s nothing in the ingredients that would […]

This is a great alternative to the usual meatloaf I make. It was really flavorful and tasted just like a cheeseburger. TSO and the kids loved it (though there were too many onions for the kids liking). No one but me likes pickles so I had to leave them out. It […]

This is another Rachael Ray recipe under $10. I chose to make this dinner because it looked simple. TSO had to take TSO Jr. to his kick boxing class so I needed something quick and easy while I watched Matman (3 years) and Daredevil (19 months). I should have known better. Nothing […]

I made this with the leftover sauce from the Turkey Bolognese Pasta that I posted the other week. None of us were very impressed with the chili. Not that it was bad or anything, but it was nothing special either - maybe because it was very mild and didn’t taste very “chili-ish.” […]
