Your last meal on earth: what would it be? I can now safely say that, along with my Big Green Egg Ribs, these peppery Asian ribs are right at the top of my list. We need a food bucket list, people! I’ve meant to cook these ever since I wrote the crock-pot posting—the comment section has been filled with wonderful slow cooker recipes since then, you might want to take…
I’ll keep it short and sweet. Here’s my latest witches’ brew: meatballs slowly simmered in a laid-back and slightly different from your average peanut sauce. Oh, how I love anything with peanut butter in it. I used my slow cooker but you can make a stove-top version as well. Simply add 1/3 cup orange juice extra, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes.

There aren’t a lot of real easy recipes out there I like better than chicken peperonata. Simple, too.

I never even try other recipes, simply because this one hits all the right spots. How could it not? I’ve made it ever since I was a little girl. Been using my slow-cooker to make the soup and it works like a charm. No intentions of changing that…
After my successful sprouts hodgepodge earlier this week, I couldn’t resist publishing another sprouts recipe that I think I got from a women’s magazine some time ago. This one’s even easier and just as tasty. Maybe even more so because I’m a huge seafood fan and the fish seems to make the dish lighter than you’d expect it to be.
