Spicing Up Your Tilapia with Chili Peppers
I had a discussion recently with a group of friends about tilapia. If you’ve never had tilapia, it is a very mild white fish. The consensus in the room was that tilapia is rather boring, and if given the choice, most would steer clear of it and opt for another dish focus. I would have to disagree. Continue reading

Your Stuffing Can Do Double Duty
In the kitchen recently, we were looking for a healthier meal option and decided on chicken. Chicken, as we all know, can be a bit boring though it is quite fabulous when properly prepared.

Guacamole, but Not Guacamole – A Topping for Grilled Salmon
Today, I seasoned some salmon with a bit of salt, chili powder and grated lemon peel, then seared them over high heat and baked them for 10 minutes. The salmon fillets always come out nice and juicy this way. While they were cooking, I had the whole 10 minutes to consider – what can I add to the salmon to finish it off?

Experimenting with Rutabaga
First off, I’m surprised that I’ve never encountered rutabaga before. My parents were not adventurous cooks growing up, so my palate was never developed until later in life, and it is still developing. I haven’t seen it in restaurants, at least not featured in any way. Jalapeno Miss slipped the bulky thing from the produce area and into the cart. We only purchased one of them and brought it home for experimentation.
