Welcome to Our New Food Blog
We are a food-loving couple (Chrissie and Dan) with three beautiful children and we love to cook and eat and photograph our creations. Most of the posts here are a result of Chrissie’s love of creating food; however, I (Dan) am often in the kitchen weekend mornings making breakfast or grilling something tasty, year-round. When grilling, we work hand-in-hand; Chrissie will prep and marinate and season and then I’ll grill it up. We both agree our food tastes better than most food we’ve payed for eating out. For that reason, we’ve recently decided to cook more at home and stop eating out – except for special occasions. Same goes for coffee (and I make mean espresso drinks!). Chrissie is a big label reader and more times than not will buy organic, Non-GMO, all-natural, etc. Thanks for visiting!

FeaturedHappy Holidays! Merry Christmas!
Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas! We celebrated Christmas today in our home and it was really nice. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any photos; however, Chrissie was able to snap a couple of her oatmeal cookies and fruit salad. Both were super good. We also had a big ham, scalloped potatoes, string-bean casserole… Instead of focusing on… Read more

FeaturedSeafood I’d Love to See Again
These are a couple pictures from the past I would love to eat again. We love cooking and eating seafood – ESPECIALLY fresh shrimp from Lowcountry South Carolina (shrimp and grits)! The cod was also a big hit and very much loved by my belly.

FeaturedSimple, but Good
Simple smoked turkey on rolls we love from Publix; with Veganaise, tomato, avocado, and cheese. We also had a nice salad with pumpkin seeds and some ramen noodles from Whole Foods. It was simple, but super tasty! Can you spot our dog among the pictures? lol

FeaturedTaco Wednesday!
Taco Wednesday might not sound as catchy as Taco Tuesday does; however, my family LOVES tacos any day of the week! This evening, we had some yummy shredded chicken tacos and it cost around ten bucks to feed all five of us. Pretty cool, considering that includes feeding a thirteen-year-old boy who can eat as… Read more

Today’s Breakfast
Nothing to see here, folks…Just this morning’s delicious eggs on toast with avocado! Purchased a better mini-skillet today from World Market that is BPA free and a bunch of other good stuff. Can’t wait to try it. It’s going to replace at least one of those in the picture above.

Holiday Blend Trail Mix
This wasn’t my idea, nor was it my recipe; however, both were great. This blend of magic consists of yogurt pretzels, red and green M &M’s, non-salted cashews, dehydrated cranberries, yogurt raisins, and salted macadamia nuts. The textures and flavors go really well together. This was actually Chrissie’s recipe idea and the answer to us… Read more

That Shrimp Salad Sandwich…
So here’s that shrimp sandwich I was talking about yesterday; with onions, lettuce, and tomato. To recap, I grilled a bunch of Montana-beef-burgers – enough for two days worth of dinners – but felt like another one (which would have ruined having some this evening). Instead, I ended up making this delicious shrimp sandwich, and… Read more

Grillin’ in the New Year!
Happy New Year! Hope yours started out as nice as ours did. Chrissie rubbed down salmon with a little olive oil and seasoned it with garlic and a nice lemon-pepper blend. I then grilled it, basting it with a little teriyaki towards the end. If you like salmon, try this. It seriously tastes waaaaaaaay better… Read more
