When it is cold out I like a nice hearty meal. This usually takes hour at the stove preparing a feast. I unfortunately did not have hours to cook this weekend. My family is coming to town and I really need to clean the house. Not that it was dirty, but Tucker seems to shed…
Italian food is one of my vices. I love the sauce, the pasta and the bread. The main problem is that my favorite recipe chicken Parmesan takes a while to cook, it requires a full chicken breast per person. Doesn’t seem like that big of a problem, but when you start cooking a bunch and…

I’m obsessed with garlic bread. This braided version changes the game—no cutting, no mess, just tear and serve family-style. The braids lock in garlic butter throughout every bite. Looks fancy. Takes a little over an hour. Tastes incredible. — Rex
Leftover rum from Mardi Gras plus orange juice, cranberry juice and triple sec. The Rumster. Simple, easy and really good. Serve it straight up or on the rocks.
I have been on the lookout for a good recipe to re-create the smiley face cookies that I had as a child. These are the large sugar cookies that had the hard glaze over them. I discovered the glaze but the cookie always seems to evade me. I have been making sugar cookies over the…
The other day I was strolling through the Crate and Barrel Outlet when I saw French Onion Soup Crocks for $1.99. I had to pick up a couple. Since then I have been on the hunt for a tasty French Onion Soup recipe. Most called for cooking the onion over the stove-top until they were…
I am always trying to expand my repertoire of recipes. The one thing that I do not cook a lot of is fish. Fresh fish is not the first thing you think of when you think of the Nations Capital. So I decided to slowly expand my repertoire with some canned tuna. I know it…

A couple of weeks ago I made a chili rice that sparked a conversation on the website about rice dishes. From there I got a couple of emails requesting more rice dishes. One of my favorite rice dishes is risotto. With its creamy texture and dynamite slow cooked flavor it is a must have. The…
Since yesterday was Fat Tuesday, I figured I would go all Mardi Gras on you guys and make a Hurricane. The hurricane was originally mixed up by local New Orleans resident and bar owner Pat O’Brien in the 1940s. It was a way for him to get rid of the excess rum that the local…
The other night I was sitting and watching TV and I came across a old Bill Cosby standup routine. After that, he was stuck in my head. The only thing that I could think of was him saying pudding. So I had to make some. Damn you Bill Cosby. So I went through the cupboard…
I love breakfast. Probably my favorite meal of the day. Mostly because it is the only meal where it is cool to eat bacon straight up. But secondly, because it is almost always served with potatoes. I love those crazy tubers. So I decided to whip up some potatoes. These potatoes are loaded with peppers…
