It's settled, and my family and friends know better than to fight me on this: the simple strong flavors from the simple strong ingredients of my culinary oils will always get you the very best meals.

I made this salad for a cast party a few days ago and I can tell you not much of it was brought back home.  It's bursting with fresh flavor and can be put together in less than a half hour.  That frees up more time for margaritas.  Yay!  Win - win. 

Nachos are pretty simple, right? You would think it would be rather hard to screw it up. Wait 'till I reveal the crap you've been buying. You deserve some quality! You're welcome :)

A delicious new spin on a classic recipe.  Perfect for weeknights because it's so damn easy to make, especially if you purchase your meat pre-ground. I'm talking 40 minutes; tops.  But, you could also wow your guests at your next dinner party.  I'll never tell that you didn't have to work that hard.  

I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, but we had all the ingredients here at home and that meant I wouldn't have to schlep to the store. 

This sauce is super easy and very satisfying.  There's lots of fresh flavor without overwhelming the delicate clams. 

Everyone has heard of eggplant parmesan, but this recipe is quite different from the typical Americanized version; no pre-salting, no breading and no frying.

You simply can't go wrong with this one.  Great on salads, wings, or as a dip. Yeah, Baby!

A one dish chicken extravaganza that's suitable for company and super easy, but you don't have to tell them that. 

This was part of my Christmas gift bags for my favorite foodie relatives.  It was a big hit! 

Gluten free crackers can be very expensive, but now you can make your own.  These are addictive!
