This has to by one of my favorite quick meals, even if you THINK you don't like blue cheese, try this dish and it will probably change your mind! The sharp flavor of the cheese melds perfectly with the deep flavors of the caramelized onion and savory seared beef.           Caramelized Onion Blue Cheese Beef And Pasta Recipe:    Click for Printable version

  This is a really fun way to make pizza. And best of all now I can eat 3 whole pizzas myself and not feel (too) bad about it! That's right we are making MINI Chicago style deep dish pizzas! These awesome little mini pizza bites won't take all day to make either, because we're going to use a little trick to get the dough formed in the pan super fast using a second oiled muffin pan. I love these, and they're a big hit with the kids too!          Chicago Deep Dish Pizza Bites Recipe:    Click for Printable version

 I've always really loved meat pies, pot pies, steak & kidney pies! It's pastry, it's meat, it's gravy, what's now to love?! It's nice if we have time to make it all from scratch, but to save a little time it's super easy to just use store bough uncooked pie crusts and use those as the base for our own Easy Steak & Onion pies at home!          Easy Steak And Onion Pie Recipe:    Click for Printable version

  This wonderfully fast and easy peanut pad thai can be ready in the amount of time it takes for us to boil the noodles! Wheat noodles, anyway. If you want to be more traditional rice noodles would be the way to go, but for me cooking is all about using what you have readily available locally, so I wound up using wheat noodles.           The Fastest Peanut Pad Thai Recipe:    Click for Printable version

  Today we make my favorite snack of all time, Droewors! Which translates directly to "Dried Sausage". But this isn't just ANY dried sausage, we make this with our traditional South African boerewors recipe! This is a very classic boerewors recipe that is 1/3rd beef, 1/3rd pork & 1/3rd lamb along with a signiture spice blend that really makes these something special you normally only see in & around South Africa. But with this easy recipe we can make ours at home any time!          Traditional Boerewors Recipe:    Click for Printable version
