You don’t need a silver fork to eat good food. – Paul Prudhomme
I’m a simple cook. I don’t believe in complicated recipes, but they do need to be crowd pleasers. Here is a collection of my favorite recipes and recipe reviews, drawing on local specialties like Texas Beef Chipotle Pepper Sloppy Joes, and Natchitoches Meat Pies to delicious, fast dishes like the refreshing Shrimp & Cilantro Lime Salad.
Party favorite: Cajun seafood dip recipe
Make this delicious Cajun seafood dip in a slow cooker ahead of the party! I created this recipe for a Cajun Christmas party and it completely disappeared (with rave reviews) -- so I made it again for Christmas dinner as an appetizer and you guessed it, it was gobbled...
Buffalo Chicken Recipe
I don’t touch raw meat. I’m probably one 60 Minutes slaughter house expose of becoming a vegetarian for the rest of my life. I am not a real chicken fan, but there’s one chicken recipe that I don’t ever pass up and that’s buffalo chicken. I love me some good boneless...

Beef Sticky Rolls for Breakfast or Brunch

Perfect Beef Football Appetizers
I am full. I ate beef all weekend. It was AWESOME. I am not a Chicken person. As proof to such, I think the Chik-fil-a ads are HILARIOUS. Not because they inspire me to eat more chicken, but because I LOVE cows. Especially the commercial where the cows are getting...

Cooking with Beef
The cool kids invited me to sit at their lunch table. I have arrived. Yes, I guess this is the point at which I am allowed to admit that I am a Mommy Blogger. @TexasHolly of June Cleaver Nirvana and @DFWBloggers teamed up with the Texas Beef Council to sponsor a...
