Italia Deli and Bakery, is a favorite among us locals! I always find something new to pick up and try in here, and I’m here weekly. I’ve tried their Ham, Turkey and Cheese on a hard roll sandwich and it is insane good. Loved their Hot Pastrami Sandwich with mustard and pickles…mmm. I order…

Seafood Risotto
This was so creamy! I can’t say I’ve ever had Risotto that I know of but being a huge fan of the TV show Top Chef and hearing the judges really critique this dish from any of the Chef’s on there that make it, the challenge was on for me to give this a go. So…
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins
My Taste of Sweet site is lacking sweets in a major way! I miss baking! I’ve been going through my food photos and realized I never posted this recipe from way back in October of 2010 when all the pumpkin recipes are being pulled out, I’m going to blame it on my difficult pregnancy. If…
Chicken Black Bean Burrito
So my first words after biting into this was…”Oh My God..” “This is so good.” Maybe I was just really hungry or this really was insane good. I’m definitely making this again soon but I would add a little more of the spices than it states! For the salsa I used bottled Salsa…
Chocolate Souffle with hot chocolate sauce
Okay….I’m not cheating on my diet. I made this for my husband’s birthday and I used Cooking Light‘s take on it to shave off some of those calories. I can’t remember what a Souffle with all the calories and goodness in it taste like because it has been so long since I had one. I…
Shrimp Korma
Another yummy shrimp recipe with Indian Spices! This is more of a water down version of the Indian food I’m use to having at my husband’s families house but I figured it is coming from Cooking Light so I’m sure all the calories that normally goes into it was cut out or just watered down….
Ancho Pork and Hominy Stew
This is really tasty! Next time I’m thinking of browning the meat as instructed but not putting it back in the pot for the extra 20 minutes to cook as the meat was a bit chewy for my taste. It is Pork Tenderloin which doesn’t need to be cooked long, I would add the…
Maple Mustard Chicken Thighs
So tasty! I tasted the mustard in this but my husband said he couldn’t taste the mustard…so there you go. I didn’t grill them as instructed in the recipe due to it looking like it’s going to rain, but I did bake them and broiled the chicken on low the last 2 minutes of…
Seviche-Style Shrimp and Avocado Tacos
Oh man these are so good! Add some Sriracha to it for heat! This is the easiest recipe on my entire food blog so go make these tonight! All you need to buy is cooked shrimp, cilantro, limes, avocado, garlic, corn tortillas and vine tomatoes! Let it marinade for 20 minutes and it’s all done…
Blueberry Picking
Blueberry season is finally here! We went blueberry picking Memorial Day weekend with some friends and had a blast. We came out of there with cartons full of big and really sweet tasting berries. Beautiful Big Blueberries for grabs at $3.75 a pound. We walked away with 6 pounds… The little ones enjoyed picking too……
