Salmon is a favorite seafood to grill (I did use my Le Creuset cast iron grill pan as it was raining) using so many different marinades such as this version from Bobby Flay.

The best thing is the meal can be entirely cooked on the grill. … Continue reading

I also love cauliflower cooked many different ways and was willing to try this version of “rice”. Of course cauliflower is lower in … Continue reading
Back in late June I picked my first jalapeno peppers from one of the three raised cedar vegetable beds (each is 3 x 6-feet) I had installed earlier this summer. I use to have a 40′ x 120′ garden (plus the corn/pumpkin patch) when we lived in the country. Some old pictures… Travis and Bethany Watering my garden … Continue reading

Since I do not add the “dirty” part (chicken livers or giblets), I felt “Cajun Rice” was more appropriate. I do like rice and enjoy cooking it various ways and with different ingredients.
