Mediterranean Frittata

Sometimes I open the fridge and know exactly what I want to make. Other times, I stand there looking at what I have and hope for inspiration. This recipe comes from the second scenario. How do I make dinner with leftovers from the night before when there's not enough for everyone? After about a minute, I looked up a shelf and saw the other ingredient that would become the base of our dinner, a carton of eggs. At that point I knew what we were doing for dinner. We were having a frittata.

Chef's Day Off #5

Another week has come and gone, and it's time for another day off. I look forward to these days because it means I can sit back and enjoy the tasty dishes coming out of other peoples kitchens. In our house we LOVE pasta, so this week we'll be enjoying some delicious Cavatelli with Chicken Sausage and Kale, thanks to Angela over at LeMoine Family Kitchen.

Now it's your turn. Link up your recipes to inspire me for next week.

Catfish Nuggets w/Spicy Tartar Sauce

Growing up in Indianapolis, it seemed like there was a fish fry somewhere in town every Friday. There was nothing like freshly fried fish and hush puppies to satisfy your hunger prior to heading off to some form of entertainment for the evening, whether it be a baseball game or a trip to the skating rink. It was at these fish fries that I developed a taste for catfish breaded in cornmeal and cooked until golden and flaky. Nowadays, if I want that flavor, I can recreate it at my house for my family.

Chef's Day Off #4

It's Wednesday again, which means it's time for another day off. As we prepare for a little bit of snow here in the Central Plains, I was looking through the recipes posted up last week and one jumped out and grabbed my attention. These White Chocolate Macadamia Magic Bars from Kaylee over at Couponing and Cooking. These will taste absolutely amazing with a cup of coffee while watching the snow fall...and after shoveling out from under a huge pile of the white stuff.
