Some time ago, when I discovered that I liked Italian food, I tried a stuffed shells recipe and fell in love. I can’t even remember whose recipe this is now, because I’ve modded it a little bit and am not sure what’s what. But I’ll tell you what my favorite thing is about this stuffed

Lasagna
Boy it has been a long, long, looooong time since I’ve made lasagna, and I would like to thank the #365Recipes project for giving me an excuse to bring it back into my life, even if momentarily. As you may know, I have been steadily cutting meat out of my diet in favor of a
Crockpot Sausage, Peppers, and Onions
Who doesn’t like sausage, peppers, and onions? It’s one of my favorite Italian dishes. I was recently at a work teambuilding event and they had a catered lunch for us. I have been following an 80/20 grain-free rule over the past couple of months and all I could eat at this catered lunch was sausage,
Sausage, Pepper, and Onion Sliders
Last summer sometime, I hosted a Slutfest at my house with our friends Geoff and Becky. Normally Slutfest is just the four of us getting together and pigging out but on this occasion we also invited our friends Jackie and Brandon.

Bruschetta French Bread Pizza
Did you guys ever find yourself with like a ton of leftover bruschetta and no idea what to do with it? No? Yeah, me neither. Not often anyway. But when I do have some leftover, I usually make this the very next day! So one of the ways I originally toyed with introducing cheese to
Bruschetta
Bruschetta! How do you say this, by the way? Broo-skett-ah? Broo-shett-ah? Who knows. I don’t care. I say Broo-shett-ah. Anyway. I love bruschetta because you know why? It makes me think of spring and summer, because can you really think of anything fresher and more delicious than a juicy, ripe tomato and some fresh basil?
Chicken Piccata and Roasted Potatoes
Earlier this week I gave you a romantic steak dinner menu to serve to your special someone on Valentine’s Day. But maybe you don’t like steak. Or red wine. Or broccoli (I don’t blame you, I eat it very begrudgingly). This would be my next pick to serve to someone on Valentine’s Day. Chicken piccata
