Today is National Potato Chip Day. I suppose we could have made a dish featuring crushed potato chips. That would have been fine. I’m just not a big fan of potato chips. I will admit, I like to smash plain chips on a sandwich, but that’s about as far as it goes.

Instant Pot Ancho Chile Chicken Enchiladas
Can we talk Instant Pots for just a moment? Do you have one? I put off jumping on the Instant Pot bandwagon for a very long time. I told myself it was trending – like Microwaves. Do you remember when people cooked entire meals in their microwave? Crazy, but that’s just my opinion.

The 3rd Friday of Lent and an Amazing Soup
Today is the 3rd Friday of Lent. I like the idea of a simple, yet satisfying vegetable soup as a humble reminder of this season. My faith is important to me. It is as important as the air I breath or the foods I eat.

Casarecce Pasta with Smoked Sausage
Do you shop at Costco? I don’t know about other big box stores, but Costco has assorted Pastas bundled together. Three different types of pasta in one pound bags sold as a package deal. Yeah, six pounds of short pastas.
The Way of Oven-Baked Scallops in Shells
One of Hubby’s favorite things from the sea has to be Scallops. They are almost like round, sweetly mild white fish, just not flaky like a perfectly cooked piece of fish would be. Scallops lend themselves beautifully to an array of flavor enhancements.
Hump Day and a Sheet-Pan Supper
How’s your mid-week going thus far? I swear, the world seems to be going nuts. It’s best to stay informed without joining the Chicken Little Brigade. You know, the people who think the sky is falling.
Today We Eat Our Noodles!
Today is National Eat Your Noodles Day, which should not be mistaken with National Noodle Day as these are two completely different things. Yeah, confusing, I know. Apparently one day is to celebrate the noodle, the other is to eat the noodle.
Grilled Onion Round Peppery Cheeseburgers
One of the things we keep in the freezer are pre-made hamburger patties. I know, fresh is always best, but not always practical. There are a number of reason.

Slow-Cooker Spicy Ranch Chicken Soup
Obviously, today is Tuesday. At least it’s Tuesday when I’m posting this recipe to share. It might not be Tuesday when you read this. Wow, is that clear as mud or what?
Cream of Chicken and Rice Florentine
Why is it that any dish with the name Florentine contain spinach? Maybe it’s because Arab Merchants brought Spinach to Sicily over 1,2000 years ago, and the plant thrived. There are a lot of thoughts on the relationship of Spinach and Florence. Some are very romantic. Any way you look at it, spinach brightens up the plate.
Cheesy Goodness at Its Best
On the National Day front, we had a lot to choose from today. Let’s start with my personal favorite, National Get Over It Day. And yeah, just like the name implies, it’s a day set aside for everyone to “just get over it already.” What? Get over it? Yeah!
A Slow-Cooker Sunday Supper
Talk about the perfect slow-cooker dish for a Sunday! Unlike some slow-cooker recipes, this one requires a little prep work in the morning. By searing the skin of the chicken, it brings depth of flavor to the finished dish. You can sear the chicken before heading off to the market or church or whatever else you do on Sunday. And unlike most slow-cooker dishes, this one takes about five hours, making it perfect for the weekend rather than a long day at work.
Hello Oregon – Today is Your Day!
Today is National Oregon Day, a day to celebrate the 33rd state to join the union. When most people think of Oregon, they think Pacific Northwest, the Chinook natives of the Columbia River Gorge, and where Lewis and Clark first laid eyes on the Pacific Ocean.
Saturday Morning Breakfast Sandwich
How is the weather fairing in your neck of the woods? I ask because we’ve been having an unusually warm, dry end to winter. Maybe a sprinkle here and there, but for the most part dry, with temperatures in the upper 60s or low 70s during the day, if you can believe that. Hubby has already started preparing our garden beds for an earlier than usual planting of tomatoes.
A Crown Fitting for the Day
As I’m sure you have guessed, today is National Crown Roast of Pork Day. Just as the name suggests, this roast is worthy of a royal celebration.
