Right now, in late summer, when Bell Peppers and Tomatoes are abundant (Can you have too many? I think not!) is the perfect time to use them with wild abandon! This Spanish-leaning Easy Chicken & Peppers Bake fits the bill!
Those glorious juices are so good when the dish is served over rice or with bread to sop them up.
Here we are at the beginning of February and Mardi Gras is coming up – that’s a great reminder to make a dish with a bit of heat and a bit of spice to ward off the winter blues. A dish like this Cajun Fried Rice with Pulled Pork.

This isn’t your classic Hummus (Hummus bi Tahini) but this recipe starts off with my basic recipe for Hummus – and then jazzes it all up in this Garlicky Spicy Hummus.

Sometimes I think a bell pepper can be stuffed with just about anything but I gotta tell you these easy Southwestern Stuffed Peppers are really a standout. They have the fun flavor of tacos but are fresher, lighter, and lower carb, and can I just say, stuffed with mostly pantry ingredients? And cheese. And ground beef, chicken or turkey (or just go vegetarian.) And then, well, more cheese.
Southwestern Stuffed Peppers – I love to use Pepper Jack, but use what you like…Pickled Jalapenos are optional.
What makes these the Ultimate Steak Nachos and makes them better than any restaurant version out there? Two things really: They’re going to be piping hot and just perfect crunchy cheesy melty delish when you set them on the table and you get to put all your fave stuff on them! Beyond that, if you have peeps that want more of this or don’t like that, you can customize portions. Now that’s nachos for the win!
