The other day I made Mushroom Kale Oven Pancakes and I promised to share my Oven Roasted Mushrooms & Garlic. Don’t for a minute think you’re obligated to use these wonderous little mushroom morsels in that oven pancake, though after making that pancake with them, I’m never going back to plain old mushrooms in it again!

Instant Pot Mexican Red Rice
There’s nothing like a great Mexican Red Rice on your plate when you’re having Taco Tuesday or any other Mexican or Southwestern dinner. There’s a reason so many of us at home either skip it altogether or turn to a mix – after all, why put effort into a dish that even at restaurants is sometimes lackluster and gets picked at or pushed aside. This Instant Pot Mexican Red Rice is going to rock your world – or at least get you some fab Mexican Red Rice on the table!

Roasted Mushroom Barley Risotto
Roasted Mushroom Barley Risotto is one of those cozy, fall dishes that takes very little effort but has a huge payoff in flavor. And even though this dish and dishes like this are typically called “risotto” it’s made with barley rather than rice. Call me Miss Obvious, lol! 🙂

Quick Corn & Bell Pepper Maque Choux
I’m pretty wild about my Quick Corn & Bell Pepper Maque Choux, and I hope you’ll be, too. It’s got to be the perfect end of summer dish; a great transition into the heavier, comfort foods of fall.
