I went to the market yesterday and they had some great looking artichokes. So I picked up a couple and figured that I would grill them. Plus it would give me the opportunity to break down an artichoke and document it for the website. Cleaning artichokes is easy but I can totally see why a…
I have been on a real pizza kick lately. Today I wanted to use some chicken breasts that I had in the refrigerator, but I didn’t want to just grill them. I also didn’t want to use the oven as it is still hovering around 95 degrees in DC. So I decided to make a…
