These tacos are keto friendly

Chris Cooks: Grilled Steak Tacos

Steak tacos, but perhaps in a way you haven't had them before. This is a quick, veto-friendly meal (when using lettuce as opposed to tortillas) that will be perfect for dinner with family or friends. If you don't have a grill, try using a grill pan on your stove top instead. You'll be surprised at […]

Chris Cooks: Garlic & Herb Pork Tenderloin with a Warm Potato Salad

I'm not a fan of what most people think of when they hear the words, "potato salad." Cold potatoes just aren't my thing. But this warm version is easy and packed with flavor. Served with a simple grilled tenderloin rubbed with herbs and garlic, it's all perfect. This is a grilled recipe, but the pork […]

Chris Cooks: Salt & Vinegar Chicken with a Grilled Corn Salad

Very few meals become regulars around our home, because I love cooking new things all the time. But this meal is so good (and so easy), that I make it at least twice a month. Even more during the summer months. You can watch the full video on how to make here on CLJTV, right […]

Perfect Easter Ham

Easy & Amazing Overnight Easter Ham

Easter is upon us, and everyone is scrambling to find that perfect ham recipe, stockpiling the 30 ingredients required for it, and preparing to realize late Saturday night that they have neglected the entire rest of the menu. That sentence is a little too specific for the writer of this post (*cough*) to not have […]

Grilled Pork Chili

Recipes

My Best Chili Recipe: Grilled Pork Chili

I can officially say that I have created an "award-winning" chili recipe. Sure the award was a $25 gift card, and the competition was my office's yearly chili cookoff, but don't let the small venue fool you. I think this chili could handle any crowd, and their various tastebuds. It's a little smoky, a little […]

Grilled Pork and Herbs

Recipes

Grilled Pork Tossed With Fresh Herbs

My fear with this dish is that people will think it's either secretly complicated, or too simple to be worth trying. I mentioned on Instagram last night that I'm not one for declaring "favorites" with my dishes. I feel like bloggers use the word "favorite" way too often, so using it can come off as […]

Light, Flavorful, Comforting. Let's Make Some Pho.

So it's a new year, and a fairly standard resolution is to eat healthier. That goes good for a few days, but pretty soon we remember that it's still the middle of freaking winter and we need warm, comforting foods for crying out loud. Well I can give you at least one option. It's called […]

The Perfect, Traditional Pot Roast

The Perfect, Traditional Pot Roast

I think every home cook goes through a period of complexity. I partly blame Pinterest, but I'm sure there's something deeper, too - superiority complex or need for change or something like that. I've gone through my own period of complexity, thinking that every dish needed to be new or different. And don't get me […]

Zuppa Toscana - One of My Favorite Soups. Ever.

We don't eat at Olive Garden often, but whenever I find myself there during colder months, I always get the bottomless soup, salad & breadsticks. And even though they have several soups to choose from, I always stick with the Zuppa Toscana because it is, far and away, the superior option. So imagine my joy […]

How We Do Whole30 - Baked Coconut Curry Chicken Wings
