Easy Homemade Mac-N-Cheese
Published by November 7th, 2009 in 4 Stars, Easy Preparation, Pasta, Sides, Southern Living and Vegetarian. ClosedI’m not ashamed to admit that I like boxed mac-n-cheese, especially with some chipotle Tabasco sauce. I’ve made homemade mac-n-cheese before, and most of the time the result is disappointing.

They are different, but pretty good. Almonds are [...]
East-West Flank Steak
Published by August 9th, 2007 in 5 Stars, Asian, Beef, Easy Preparation, Entertaining, Grill and Southern Living. 0 CommentsThis recipe comes from Southern Living, but I’m not positive about the year published…I think it was April 2004. The flavors of the steak are excellent. The steak should marinate at least 8 hours in the fridge, but we usually do an over night marinade. It’s really easy to prepare and cook, and it’s perfect [...]
