Ingredients Butter lettuce salad mix (Optional) Canned green beans, drained or canned cannellini beans, drained and rinsed Green or black olives, sliced or chopped Red onion, chopped or […]

Savory Salisbury Steak

I am sure there are recipes galore on the internet and in cookbooks for Salisbury Steak. Really, you don’t need a recipe. I made up this dish years ago without using a recipe, so I am sure anyone could. In any event, Salisbury Steak has become a family favorite and is the perfect comfort food. […]

Napolitano Soup

This soup is a little bit different for an Italian style soup. One does not consider spicy flavors, such as jalapenos, in most Italian food. I tried not to think about it so that my taste buds and preconceptions would not collide. This is a good soup, though. The jalapeno flavor is very subtle, especially […]

Fried Garlic Chicken Thighs

Keto diet or no Keto diet, these chicken thighs are the closest thing you can get to fried chicken. The Parmesan crust makes a crispy, somewhat salty crust that is flavorful and satisfying.

Fresh Salmon Burgers

I have finally perfected a salmon burger that does not fall apart. Hallelujah! These salmon burgers are made using fresh salmon. I made salmon burgers using canned salmon before, but fresh salmon burgers are the bomb-diggity! Ingredients 1-1/4 lbs. fresh salmon, skin removed 2 green onions, chopped fine 1/2 yellow onion, chopped fine 1 Tbsp. […]

Cubano Sandwich

I had one very thick leftover pork chop that inspired me to make a Cubano Sandwich. I sliced that pork chop into really thin slices for the occasion. I also happened to have some ham from a spiral sliced ham that I had gotten for .99/lb. It seemed that the stars had aligned for the […]

Freezing Blueberries

I got a bunch of blueberries at Aldi for 92 cents a pint recently. If I buy berries from aldi, they must be consumed immediately, or they must be frozen immediately. When I get an awesome deal like that, I save one pint for snacking, and I freeze the rest. I love having fresh blueberries […]

Sweet Almond Pie Crust

I have experimented with pie crusts for sweet pies quite a few times. I think this one is the best so far. Made with almond flour, the crust turns out similar to a shortbread crust. When rolled as thin as possible, the crust turns out perfectly. Working with almond flour crusts is a little bit […]

Salmon with Blueberry Glaze

One of my favorite meals is any kind of salmon with rice. Adding a glaze to a salmon gives it a sweet and savory flavor. The flavor of blueberries are very subtle, but one of the few fruits available on a Keto diet. Blackberries and raspberries work well as a replacement for blueberries, depending on […]
