With my first actual flower popping up out of my garden I feel like I have accomplished something. Sure, all I have done so far was plant some pre-established plants from the BFs moms garden and some sunflower seeds. But hey, I’ll take it. I have spent time looking at other plants I would like…
Grilled chicken kabobs are a recipe that uses fresh chicken breast and garden vegetables. Season them up, put them onto skewers and grill them up for an easy weeknight dinner. Normally I wouldn’t post a ‘review’ about a grocery store. I think they change from one block to the next and it really has to do with…
Classic banana bread. The quick bread that uses your leftover bananas. Over ripened fruit for the big snacking win. I should start this post with a fun fact. I don’t like fruit. I hate the texture. I don’t like the sweetness. I am not a fruit person. I’m not sure why I don’t like fruit but…
Jambalaya grilled stuffed peppers. Two different recipes come together to create a really delicious dinner that’s easy to put together and cooks up pretty quickly, too. This weeks “two new to try” was an easy two birds with one stone type of thing. I made a Caramelized Cajun Chicken from Southern Living Annual Recipes 2009 and…
Slow cooker pulled pork is one of the easiest and most delicious dinner recipes you will ever make. It’s spiced with a rich BBQ flavor and is great on sandwiches, in wraps, and even on salads. You’ll have everyone saying, “Damn, she makes a mean pulled pork!” Dear Marble, I adore you. You are always…
Honey-ginger glazed chicken is a sweet, slightly sticky, delicious chicken dinner recipe. These chicken bites have Asian inspired flavors and they’re as easy to make as they are to eat. I am so tired of rain. :p blah. Normally, I would never say that, as I enjoy a rainy day or a great big thunderstorm, but right…
Cajun Grilled Turkey Burgers – Juicy grilled turkey patties with Cajun spices, onion, bacon, and cheese. Get the recipe for this comfort food dinner and make your mouth do a happy dance. Ever notice that if you are just listening to the Food Network it could easily be mistaken for a soft core porn?…
This no-knead artisan bread recipe is adapted from the cookbook, “Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day”. It’s a great recipe to use when baking Artisan bread for the first time. There are a few things in the culinary world that intimidate me for no logical reason. Artisan bread would have to be in the top 5…
Chicken manicotti is Italian comfort food at its best. Chicken, cheeses, and a rich tomato sauce tucked into pasta shells and baked up with even more cheese. Dinner never tasted so good. We’ve all danced around our kitchens fantasizing about being the next food network diva (I mean some of them are so boring, a…
This double chocolate chip cupcakes recipe is adapted from a recipe in Nigella Lawson’s cookbook, “Feast”. Dessert recipes with two kinds of chocolate are the kind you don’t easily forget! I’ve got vibe. I’ve got mojo. And right now its all in boxes and I believe it may be driving me nuts. At the moment I…
Herbed Roast Beef is a comfort food dinner recipe that’s perfect for a special occasion or Sunday dinner, but easy enough to make any day of the week. I have been sleeping horridly for the past few weeks. It may have some correlation with the attempted robbery, or that perhaps, I am solar powered and the…
Asian pot stickers are the perfect appetizer for a night of homemade Chinese takeout. These delicious dumplings are filled with ground pork, scallions, and ginger. My “Two New” for this week is a cheat, kind of. I didn’t get to make two new recipes this week because of an overabundance of work – at both…
Today’s blog breaks the Pass the Sushi rules. There’s no food – just ramblings from myself about the craziness that is my life. A few weeks ago my cats moved into my boyfriends house (which was a personal meltdown for another day as I generally don’t believe in living together). He (the bf) has a…
These easy dinner recipes are quick and easy to make. Creamy chicken enchiladas are a quick and easy Mexican dinner to make. Corn tortillas are rolled up with zesty, juicy chicken breast and two types of cheese, then a spicy enchilada sauce and more cheese is baked onto the top. For dessert, make a pan of Copycat Applebee’s…
Its Super Bowl Sunday and I know nothing about football. I know there’s a ball, a big green field and some running. That’s my knowledge of football. Yet, for the Super bowl, with all the hype, its easy and fun to get into it. It’s way more fun with other people. We’re having a few…
The trains of progression and motivation are moving faster in my head then in the real world. There’s a billion brilliant ideas, but I can only hold two light bulbs at once, and that just isn’t enough. Right now schools still at a stand still even though I am old enough to fill out the…
It’s not even January first and I am already feeling overwhelmed by my New Years resolutions. There’s a list of things as a person I need to accomplish. Working out, getting fit, cooking more, blogging on all of my blogs more, updating my portfolio more, go to school, make more money. Those kinds of things….
Apple bread is perfect comfort food for a chilly Fall day. This quick bread is stuffed with Granny Smith apples and finished with a caramel-pecan praline topping. The leaves are just starting to get a hue of autumn and the weather has been teasing us with cooler days. This is the time of year that makes…
Homemade Blueberry muffins are the perfect start to any morning. Fluffy and tender and bursting with juicy ripe blueberries. It’s your lucky day, because I’m sharing the recipe! Today my only thought this morning was that the bed was comfy and I didn’t really need to rush into the day. My boyfriend was up and off…
There’s something cute and charming about sitting around watching fireworks and relaxing. Unfortunately, that is not on my agenda for this year… The parents are hosting a shindig in the backyard for the 4th of July. Because, pre-made beef burgers and hot dogs are not even an option with my family at these kinds of…
Pass the Sushi is under construction. This is a temporary look until I figure out exactly what I want to do with the look. I am debating whether to stick with the original look and just clean up the code a lot or turn the whole thing around. I’m a girl, its my prerogative to…
I have not given Pass the Sushi the attention it needs and deserves. Poor lil blog. I have been working as lame as it seems, at my store a lot more, and devoting a lot of my internet time into creating sites for other people. Between designing sites, working full time, and having a wild…
I have been uber lazy in the kitchen lately. It’s not that I don’t want to cook, its that I’m broke. I am dying to use my new shiny red Kitchenaid 7-cup food processor and new beautiful herb mincer that I got for Christmas, but I just have been too cheap to go down to…
I have met several people this year that love chicken recipes (something that I have trouble with because I am such a red meat fan). But, as I am trying to be a good hostess, I have been agonizing over chicken recipes for a while now. Here’s the kicker – the chicken fans are also…
This mint brownie pie recipe couldn’t be any easier to make! It starts with a package of dry brownie mix (or your own homemade version) and it’s jazzed up with chocolate mint chips and baked into a pie shell. This easy dessert recipe is a keeper! Today, along with yesterday and probably tomorrow has been…
My new bento box and other bento making supplies came today! Yippy! I have been waiting for this since June. I am glad that most of it finally got here & I can’t wait to try it all out!!!
Party foods are essential for any outdoor barbecue or picnic. So last week I threw my annual backyard get bash where I invite people from the comic book store, DND and a few other walks of my life to get together and chill. It usually rocks but this year had more stress involved then previous…
