    Enchilada Casserole

    Enchilada anything has my vote. So when I saw a variation on that theme last week had to make it mine and I mean mine. Well, actually it is now a fam favorite for sure.

    Since moving to Florida we have been drawn to the Latin version of many recipes. Whether it be Puerto Rican ( although mofungo is too much plantain heavy for my taste by husband loves it),  Cuban is a big favorite ( try my cubano egg rolls it is the more Tampa edition!). but you get the picture-anything Island works. We love our Mexican as well but it is a little harder to find around here (no fish tacos are not Mexican in my world and neither is Taco Bell) so we have to work at adapting recipes. read more

I think that is my am a sad, sad baker. Do not get me started on those stories.  But I promise I am going to try really had to be a better baker. read more

    This was one of our first dabbles into the Keto way of eating.  At first most sides all tasted the same. Like cauliflower. Not every day thank you very much.  We like food with a lot of flavor. Now that does not necessarily mean overly spicey or overly hot but I want my tongue happy when I eat. Not like ‘oh did I eat something..geez what was it?’ And my mouth was happy with this one! read more
