Back when I lived in California, there was a tapas restaurant at Downtown Disney called "Y Arriba! Y Arriba! Tapas-Teatro" and they had this coconut-lime rice that was like nothing I've ever had before. Sadly, they closed down. If...
Since I was preparing Chicken made with Mojito Marinade I could not resist the temptation and decided to go ahead and make a mojito. Lacking the usual 7-up or Sprite (since we don't buy those anymore due to High Fructose Corn Syryp), I decided...
Buitoni's Whole Wheat Four Cheese Ravioli is tasty on its own merits, but I like to make good things better... Tonight I made the ravioli into a dish I'm calling Garlic-Fried Ravioli and Tomato. Preparation involves cooking the ravioli to package...
Buitoni's Whole Wheat Three Cheese Tortellini is a family favorite. We've used it to make EatingWell's Baked Tortellini and EatingWell's Tortellini Salad . I've also used it to make a few other recipes of my own that I'm sure at some point will end...
Penne All'Arrabbiata ("In a Rage") has got to be the easiest EatingWell recipe I've made so far. Not only is it easy, but it is really fast too. We enjoyed this dish so much that we had it two nights in a row. Tonight it was much hotter...

Greek Yogurt Cheesecake (with Ouzo-Poached Figs, just not shown in this picture). The Greek Yogurt Cheesecake with Ouzo-Poached Figs was amazing! First, I'm no fan of ouzo (even though I'm 1/2 Greek), and second I usually only like fresh figs....
Of course we had Turkey & Tomato Panini; we've made that a brunch staple in our house. To the right of the panini is the Pineapple Coffee Cake. Bottom left is a piece of ham steak, left over from making the Ham & Cheese Casserole (bottom...
We enjoyed the Herb-Coated Filet Mignon and Herbed Whole Wheat Couscous (not shown) so much the night prior, that we had to have it again. This time, more herbs. We also preheated the oven with the grill pan in it. The meat turned out even better...
These herbs are from my garden used in tonight's dinner, Herb-Coated Filet Mignon. Oregano is far left, lemon thyme above the parsley, chives are next and garlic chives far right. The recipe didn't give specific ingredients, so I used what I had on...
