Shrimp and Pasta
Threw in some pine nuts, skipped the feta and went for a rosemary parmesan blend cheese. Fast and excellent. Not so SNAP. http://xr.com/y4li

Crab Cakes ~ Texas Style
http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/crab_cakes/ http://www.emerils.com/recipe/938/Remoulade Used this very good recipe. Only changes are—use one egg, add cilantro and lime juice for the crab cakes. Also added cilantro in place of parsley in the remoulade sauce (courtesy of Emeril).

The $25 Challenge
In the last Lenten season, my husband (Pops) and I decided to slash the old food bill by getting me out of the grocery store. My name is Susie and I’m an impulse shopper. Hi Susie! Now mind you, I’m only an impulse buyer at grocery stores, i.e Whole Paycheck, Grand Central Market, HEB, Kroger. I’m not safe in any of them. There is no sale too good or lousy for me to partake in....

And yet more wing recipes.... →
I love Ancho chile, like my FAVE, (along with New Mexican chiles)  but something about sweetness on chicken wings (to me) takes away the flavor/juiciness. The “mouth feel” immediately tastes the sweetness. Then the juiciness and skin are left last. Of course, if you dip-like I do from time to time-I only dip the wing one time so I can do many tastes, then a mouth feel, then a finish. I...

PROUD ITALIAN COOK: T I M P A N O ! →
I actually made this monster one time with the aid of my dear friend Peg(o’my heart). It was huge and it was good. Every area in Italy has their own take on this dish and ours was the Friendswood/Pearland edition. Meatballs, chopped eggs, grilled chicken breasts and thighs, eggplant, pasta, homemade marinara, layers of veggies etc and baked in a huge bowl. Serious, exhausting good food.

Milk Braised Pork →
Seems to be a minor argument in cooking community if this is an “Italian thing” or an “Old South Favorite”. In our house it usually means that its someone’s birthday. It is a favorite in our house. Flavorful and easy. I use pork loin, but any sirloin roast or butt or shoulder (?) can be used.
