Jamaican Curried Shrimp

 


Shrimping!!

I can't believe after all these years I never had a plain and straight curry shrimp recipe on the blog. Someone messaged me on Instagram asking for a curry shrimp recipe and I actually went to the blog looking for one and was shocked to realize, it's not there! So I made sure to change all that.

Crispy Chicken Tenders


It's the crunch for me...

I say all the time that I’m not that great at frying chicken, but chicken tenders are a whole different thing. Chicken breasts are so much more forgiving than a leg and thigh and cook super quickly. Over the last year, I tried something new with my standard chicken tender and I have never looked back.

Red pepper Beef mince noodles



Pantry Dinner

I don’t always make quick and easy recipes; I think there is beauty in taking the time to slowly develop flavors. But other times, you need dinner in 30 minutes or less, and that’s fine too. You should keep this recipe saved for the days when the ingredients are low. I went through my freezer, pantry and refrigerator grabbed a couple ingredients, and here we all are.

Birria Spring Rolls with consommé


Birria is King!

I am not Mexican, I have never had an authentic birria taco, actually, I’ve never even had a birria taco before this one that I made. But over the last year, I have been seeing birria being made on Instagram and I could not take it anymore. I had to try it. I don’t know how authentic this is but I tried, I did my research, checked out a few food blogs, watched so many YouTube vids and decided it was my time!

Simple Charcuterie cheese board

 


I DID IT!

The elements of this dish come together like a symphony orchestra. Every item complimenting the next. They are all working together so you taste salt, sweet, zesty, and spicy. Then experience textures like soft, crunchy, and crumbly. I can see why these are all the rage, and how this can make a banging brunch.

Low Calorie Fish Tikka Tacos

 


Low-Calorie Living 

I really really really love tacos. I never met a fish taco I did not like. I am on a little quest to eat healthier and have meals with more veggies, lean meats, and fiber. So I'm not about to be making ribs mashed potatoes gravy and mac n cheese for the blog to tempt myself. So the blog gets whatever I am eating. So these next few recipes are about keeping the calories low but the flavors high. That’s my motto, the food has to be delicious no matter what! these tacos did not disappoint!

Cajun Turkey Neck and Dumplings


 Belly Full on a Budget

My first turkey neck ever and it was quite yummy. This one pot of delicious turkey neck and dumplings was super filling. The epitome of a belly full on a budget. I’m not sure why turkey neck has such mixed reviews. People act as if it is disgusting or it doesn’t taste good. But this tasted really good to me. I felt like I was eating jumbo chicken necks. I have never had turkey neck before. If you are a lover of turkey neck keep reading.
