Taco Tuesday is a crowd-pleaser in every family dinner schedule. We had tacos recently so I decided to finally share the recipe weContinue reading “Taco Tuesday”
Shrimp Fra Diavolo
At a little seafood restaurant in Newport, RI called Scales & Shells they serve the very best ever shrimp fra diavolo – technically it’s seafood fra diavolo (with lobster tail) for 2 and it is just phenomenal. You get tons of fish but it’s the sauce that you remember, it’s the best with just aContinue reading “Shrimp Fra Diavolo”
Roasted Broccoli
Maybe I’m the last person to try this, but have you ever roasted broccoli?

In the summer we make aContinue reading “Roasted Broccoli”

Homemade Granola Bars

Simple At-Home Curry Recipe
Sometimes you need a little something special for dinner even if you don’t have any extra time to make it. We get bored with the same old, same old and every once in a while will make a more ethnic dish to literally spice it up.

Baked Kale and Ricotta Dip
I was flipping through the most recent issue of Martha Stewart Living late last week and came across a quick one-page recipe for an alternative to spinach artichoke dip. Since it’s fall and football season and we’re always looking for snacks to enjoy while we watch games on Sunday afternoon, I immediately tore out theContinue reading “Baked Kale and Ricotta Dip”
Pappa Al Pomodoro – Bread Soup
I was watching an episode of Barefoot Contessa over the weekend where everything she made had bread as the main ingredient. One recipe was this soup (Pappa Al Pomodoro) and I thought, soup with bread IN it? That sounds pretty awesome, so we made it for dinner on Sunday. We also have tons of tomatoesContinue reading “Pappa Al Pomodoro – Bread Soup”
