I'm still over here trying to use up all of my couscous. It's been weeks and the stuff never runs out! I've been getting creative in the kitchen trying to come up with ways to use the little pasta pearls. I've done main dishes, side dishes, and now salads. I refuse to buy any other… Continue reading Mediterranean Couscous Salad

Hawaiian Pasta Salad
If you've only been going to the grocery store once every few weeks, you've probably been stocking up just like I have. I'm finally getting to the bottom of my freezer and grocery day is still a few days away. I've managed to use up a lot of old frozen products I had (roasted green… Continue reading Hawaiian Pasta Salad
Pesto Tortellini & Chicken
A jar of pesto and a carton of pasta can feed an army. I'm convinced of that. Pasta is the best thing to be stocking up on right now, and so are jarred sauces.

I could honesty care less about the New Year. One more circulation around the sun? Great. I don't need a party to… Continue reading Chicken and Ravioli Carbonara
Mediterranean Orzo Salad
I feel like I've been on a weeklong food binger. The holidays are rough, really rough. There's cookies and candies and pies and turkey and stuffing galore. Now is the time to start getting through the end of the leftovers and then rebooting the system. I've got to get some more greens and roughage in… Continue reading Mediterranean Orzo Salad
Ham & Bow Tie Bake
I'm still up to my eyeballs in ham. I made that crockpot beer ham a few weeks ago and have turned it into three different dishes---but I still have ham leftover. And that was a small, 3 pound ham, too! If you made a ham for Thanksgiving, you're probably swimming in ham slices as well.… Continue reading Ham & Bow Tie Bake
