Is there anything better then firing up a grill during the summer?! I grew up eating the finest grilled steaks and burgers, grilled on a charcoal grill by my Dad. Now that my husband and I have our own charcoal grill we enjoy grilling as much as we can. Usually we just grab some brats or burgers from the store and grill them up for an easy meal. Delicious, simple, summer food. Nothing wrong with that. If you're like me though, you might want something lighter than burgers or … [Read more...]

Chicken Broccoli Stir Fry (30 Minutes)

I have never been to China, but, from what I understand, what we consider to be Chinese food isn't really authentic Chinese food. Not even close. Some day I hope to find out for myself. Although, my parents did find this out for themselves and didn't really enjoy the Chinese food while they were in China, but that was before I was even born, so I am sure some things have changed since they … [Read more...]
