Grilled corn with coconut lime butter and pepper jack cheese

Grilled corn with coconut lime butter and pepper jack cheese by Robyn Medlin

I usually grill corn with the stalks on to help steam the corn but I’ve been having this Mexican style grilled corn at the Taco Shack down the street and they grill the kernels directly over the flame. I was inspired to try the corn this way and it…

Sage Butter Brussel Sprouts with Prosciutto

Sage Butter Brussel Sprouts with Prosciutto by Robyn Medlin

I don’t know why brussel sprouts get a bad reputation. If you cook them the right way, they are delicious! This recipe is made in a cast iron skillet on the grill which infuses the sprouts with a nice smoky flavor. But, these can easily be made on the stove top for those non-grillers out there.

Broccoli Casse Rolls

Broccoli Casse Rolls by Smokinhotchef

Two super delicious recipes combined into one Uber-delicious creation. Broccoli casserole is an indulgent favorite of my family's. Egg rolls are a go-to in any Chinese restaurant and all out crunchy goodness. Further, egg rolls are easy to handle and just scream DIP ME! I wanted to come up with something familiar yet different,…

Who knew Guacamole could be so easy (and tasty)?

Who knew Guacamole could be so easy (and tasty)? by Nick Roche

I must confess that I've never made Guacamole before. It has always been so convenient for others to make or bring to a party that it never really crossed my mind to do it myself; however, the other day there were two nice sized Avocados staring at me in the face on the kitchen counter, perfectly ripe, not too soft, not too hard. The…

Curried Chow Mein Noodle, Pea, Shrimp & Cashew Salad

Curried Chow Mein Noodle, Pea, Shrimp & Cashew Salad by Bob Vincent

This is a quick and easy dish to make. It is adapted from a recipe that appeared in Bon Appetit Magazine's "Too Busy To Cook" section in 1981. They published two hardbound books with recipes from "Too Busy To Cook." One in 1981 and the second volume in 1988. I added water chesnuts; increased the amount cashews and mayonnaise,…

Savory Creole Sweet Potato Casserole

Savory Creole Sweet Potato Casserole by Amos Miller

No sweet topping here - this has breadcrumbs & bacon and the Creole twist of Jamaican Pickapeppa Sauce in the yams. It is good to venture outside your comfort zone from time to time - and this is a good way to start! I was set on this culinary path in 1987 when first introduced to Chef Austin Leslie at Chez Helene in New Orleans.…

Simple Chimichurri Sauce

Simple Chimichurri Sauce by Madi Moreno de Arjona

I found out about this sauce when I ordered some steaks from Schwan's and fell in love with it. I have tried a lot of recipes but this has come close, and now thanks to a new restaurant in McAllen "SOLO EMPANADAS", now I can enjoy it when ever I want without having to make it. By the way this tastes great on pork, chicken, toasted…

Garbage Salad (not really)

Garbage Salad (not really) by Amos Miller

This salad will make the meal, or be the meal. Broccoli, oranges, almonds, raisins, mushrooms, onion & bacon - and a fabulous classic sweet & tangy creamy dressing! Vegetarians can substitute bac-o-bits, or not add a bacon substitute. Throwing together bits and pieces of a variety of items has long been the basis of some great…

Awesome salad--great for picnics and potlucks. Just be careful, since it contains mayo, that you keep it chilled.

Bugs Bunny Guacamole

Bugs Bunny Guacamole by Smokinhotchef

Holy Guacamole! Run of the mill guacamole is taken over the top with a little spicy reinforcement from salsa. Tomatoes add garden fresh flavor and are rich in lycopene. Grated carrot adds an element of crunch and texture, not to mention beta-carotene and fiber, while Sriracha seals the deal. If you love guacamole, you'll be hoppin'…

Superfast Summer Sauce for ?

Superfast Summer Sauce for ? by Amos Miller

It's hot, you're hungry, you don't want to spend more than a few minutes at the stove. You have a main dish in mind. Try this. I use this quick sauce on a pasta, on grilled veggies, on a seared or grilled thin cut of meat - even on shrimp. Use your imagination! The key is that ALL ingredients hit the hot oil at the same time.…
