Sausage, Peppers, and Onions Linguine
My favorite, local grocer makes these amazing, fresh chicken and green onions sausage! It’s delightful! And what I love most is that they use non-pork castings. I use them in almost every dish I make that has sausage as an ingredient. Naturally, I had to make a pasta dish with it. You know I love…
Coop’s Monte Cristo Sandwich

Pressure Cooker BBQ Pulled Chicken
Still loving my pressure cooker! I wanted to try chicken in the bad boy this time. I love Pulled Chicken Sandwiches! Decided to try them out in the Cosori. Use your favorite BBQ sauce. I always add a little extra brown sugar and garlic to the store bought sauces. Oh and Coke! Yes, Coca-Cola. Trust…
Pressure Cooker Red Beans and Rice
Took me awhile to hop on the pressure cooker bandwagon, but now, I’m driving the thing! I’m so in love with my kitchen buddy. It’s magical. I can prove it! It typically takes at least 2 hours to cook dried red beans. Even after soaking! Using my pressure cooker I was able to cook these…

So, here’s my version of Stuffed Tuscan Chicken breasts. Hey, can’t beat ’em, might as well join ’em… You gotta get the sun-dried tomatoes that are in olive oil. They’re a couple of…
Steakhouse Style Creamed Spinach
For the past two date nights, we’ve dined in two different steakhouses. I’ve had the creamed spinach on both occasions and I’m pretty sure I could eat this stuff every single day! It’s so yummy! Spinach, cream cheese…you know what? I don’t even need to go any further. Let’s just hop in. Here’s the tutorial.…
Crab Cakes with Spicy Creole Mustard Aioli
Crab cakes. I want to taste every bit of the $4,686 in crab meat I bought. Yes, Cookies. We’re not wasting time today. No filler. Just a little binder, a lot of flavor, and CRAB! I’m not from the beautiful state of Maryland. Never been. So, these aren’t Maryland crab cakes. HOWEVER, Coop’s Crab Cakes…
Swedish Meatballs
I’m mad. Hurt. Disappointed. All of that. Oh, why you ask? Thanks for being so concerned. Well, I can’t find any dang LIGONBERRY JAM for my Swedish Meatballs! How am I gonna have a legit Swedish Meatball plate without the jam?? Like this… Okay, I guess we’ll be fine without the jam. Especially if you…
