One Bowl Chocolate Cake

One Bowl Chocolate Cake

This is one of the best chocolate cakes I ever tasted! I found the recipe on Allrecipes.com. It is a very popular recipe with great reviews! What was unique to me about this recipe wasn't the fact that it's made in 'one bowl' because aren't all cakes made in one bowl? What I found to be different about this recipe is that hot water is added to the batter before it is baked! I'm not sure what purpose the hot water serves, but I always make it that way because the taste and texture are so perfect! Why mess with a good thing?

Singapore Noodles with Shrimp

Singapore Noodles with Shrimp
I love Asian noodle recipes! I've tried many in my blogging days! This one is a little different because it's a fusion of Chinese and Indian flavors! The curry powder gives it some heat. Most Singapore Noodle recipes are on the bland side, in my opinion!

Grilled Potatoes

Grilled Potatoes

Potatoes on the grill are so easy and so very good! I love the smoky flavor and it's so much quicker than baking them in the oven! Plus, who wants to turn on the oven for an hour and heat up the kitchen on hot summer days!

Cream Cheese Plum Crumble - From Boxed Cake Mix

Cream Cheese Plum Crumble - From Boxed Cake Mix

You know, I never realized how very versatile boxed cake mix can be! I always thought that the only way to use boxed cake mix was to prepare it according to the directions on the box! I was pleasantly surprised to see that there are so many ways to use it straight from the box, without preparing it! So much easier that way!

Adobo Roast Pork Loin

Adobo Roast Pork Loin
 
I have many pork 'chop' recipes but not many pork 'roast' recipes! I don't think I'll ever need to look for another pork roast recipe after trying this one because it was the best pork roast I've ever tasted! And I love how easy it was to make! Only 6 ingredients in this perfectly delicious recipe! Just mix together the simple spice ingredients, then rub it all over the pork loin and bake for 40-45 minutes.

Jerk Chicken with Coconut Rice & Beans...Plus a Giveaway!

This was such a delicious meal! The perfect blend of spices really gives this dish it's authentic flavor! And I love that I don't need to go looking for each spice in the store or in my spice cabinet! No measuring either! Every ingredient comes in it's own separate plastic pouch!

Thai Satay Udon Noodles!

Thai Satay Udon Noodles!

My blogger friend Judith from The Midnight Baker food blog, gave me a few packages of Udon noodles. Judith is always making such delicious Asian recipes! She makes me crave this stuff! I decided to go looking for a recipe that I know my hubby will love! He's a Thai food junkie so I figured that's a great place to start.

Sweet and Spicy Green Bean Bundles!

Sweet and Spicy Green Bean Bundles!

I'm always on the lookout for new and interesting veggie side dishes! This one caught my eye because of the presentation! But the original recipe kind of scared me because it contained a pound of bacon and a cup of butter! There was no way I was making the recipe that way!

Tikka Masala Oven Fries!

 coated and ready for the oven
I just LOVE Chicken Tikka Masala! So why not make an Oven Fries version! I'm always looking for new and unique potato recipes, so this was a no brainer!
