The changing of the seasons makes me long for the previous one. I love fall, don't get me wrong, but when it really turns into fall I start to miss summer. Just like when it turns into winter I miss fall. In the spring, I find myself yearning for snow. Summer, I miss those springtime… Continue reading Summer Sausage Skillet Dinner

Catfish Po’Boy Tacos
When my parents were down here to help us move into our new home, my mom bought two big bags of catfish nuggets. We had planned to do a fish fry one night, but all of the work we had to do on the house bogged us down so we never got around to it.… Continue reading Catfish Po’Boy Tacos
Jambalaya Stuffed Peppers
Happy Mardi Gras! Every year I try to remember to make some Cajun food for the holiday and every year I forget. Not this year! We went all out this weekend with boudin and King Cake. I even picked up a giant andouille sausage to have for today. I know those aren't the classiest Cajun… Continue reading Jambalaya Stuffed Peppers
Zesty Winter Pork Stew
It's 2020 but here I am still living in 2019. Since I spent months baking and posting holiday recipes, I'm backed up about a dozen of my normal, everyday meals. I've got salads, dinners, soups and snacks. All of the recipes are just waiting on me to post them so the world can see. Once… Continue reading Zesty Winter Pork Stew
Grilled Ham and Mushroom Po’Boy
I've been meaning to post this recipe for weeks, but got bogged down by all of the Christmas baking. Now that Christmas is here, and all of the goodies have been made, I guess I can get back to writing up dinner recipes for y'all. This recipe is fantastic for after Christmas. If you're baking… Continue reading Grilled Ham and Mushroom Po’Boy
Cajun Catfish Salad
There's been a half-full bag of frozen catfish lounging in the back of my freezer for a few weeks now. I've been desperately trying to figure out what to do with it, but my mind kept drawing a blank. The only thing I could think of was to make fried catfish...I know, boring. There had… Continue reading Cajun Catfish Salad
Cajun Shrimp Caesar Salad
Hola, from the land of the living! It's been radio silence on my end lately, and for that I apologize. I've been busy with work, and most importantly--I TOOK A VACATION! A mini-vacation, but hey, it still counts. Rob and I hit the road and snuck to the Land of Enchantment for a few days… Continue reading Cajun Shrimp Caesar Salad
Cajun Chili
It's the rainy, lazy, napfest days of March. Weather like this makes me not want to do a darn thing. I guess I still need to get ready for work, though... This will probably end up being my last soup/stew/chili recipe of the season. I doubt we make it close to freezing again, and there's… Continue reading Cajun Chili
Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Today is my engagement-versary, if that's a thing. I can't believe it has been 3 whole years since Rob and I got engaged...and nearly 2 years since we got married. It's been a whirlwind these last few years. A crazy, wonderful whirlwind. Since I'm thinking about our engagement, it's made my mind wander to our… Continue reading Shrimp & Catfish Creole
Pork Tenderloin & Cajun Slaw
It's been a rough week, food-wise. First, there was Valentine's Day. We got four (!!!) boxes of donuts at work, tons of sweets and candies, and about two dozen cookies. Can you walk by a table full of that stuff and NOT grab something? I think not. Then, Rob & I went to dinner for… Continue reading Pork Tenderloin & Cajun Slaw
