Turkish-Spiced Chicken with Green Olive Relish

For any of you who follow me on Instagram, it’s pretty obvious that when I fall for a new cookbook, I fall hard.  So you really shouldn’t be surprised that I’m writing about another recipe from A Bird in the Hand.  If anything, you should 

Marinated Swordfish with Avocado Salsa

Like the completely inept food blogger that I am, I made this months and months ago and forgot to say a single silly little word about it.  But I was looking over some photos just now, and found the images from when I made this, 

Picnic Chicken

Picnic memories are always kind of happy memories, aren’t they?  Think about it: do you have any not-so-fond memories of a picnic?  Sure, some are better than others, but are they ever really bad?  No, not really.  The word picnic, for me, conjures up happy 

The Perfect Pork Tenderloin

Ok, so I know it’s December and all, and everything is all about mulled wine and Christmas cookies and over-the-top pot-luck casseroles.  But the thing is, let’s be reasonable.  We all still have to eat dinner.  And if you’re like me, you  might want something

Grilled Steak Salad

Grilled Steak Salad

I hope everyone had a nice Memorial Day.  Did any of you have a BBQ by any chance?  Maybe a BBQ where you served big ole steaks?  And maybe you had so much steak that you still have a little leftover in your fridge today?  Well, we
