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.
