Recipe of the Week

We have added a new item to our blog called Recipe of the Week. I, Lisa, use to make one new recipe a week, but then I stopped when I was distracted by other things. I decided I need to start this tradition again because I enjoyed it so much. Sometimes I made things we loved and other times I made things we didn't like (broccoli rabe...yuck...too bitter). If we liked it or not I just enjoying experimenting and learning new ways to cook. I have quite a few recipe books and many cooking magazines (thanks to my mom), but I haven't been using them recently and we have been eating the same boring food. Tonight I put a stop to that. I made Sauteed Chicken w/ Pesto-Mushroom Cream sauce and Escarole & Gruyere Salad w/ Walnut Oil. It was so good and fun to try something new. Rich thought I was funny because all through dinner I kept saying, "this is so good...this is so good", but it was!! I plan to keep trying new things and showcasing them on the right side of the page. I don't know if this will appeal to any of you reading the blog, but I hope it will inspire you to create new dishes in your kitchen.

Hello!!! YUM~you know me and mushrooms-mmm good. I definitely want to try the chicken recipe.

By the way, your yard really looks great. Looks like we won't be making it out there this summer like we were hoping too. Gas prices are thru the roof here~$4.49 a gallon and we are having to stretch every penny. Plus Doug is working hard finishing up his masters degree YEAH!!! He should be done with internship in Dec if all goes well. Anyway-take care guys. Love Charmayne and Family
