Growing up in Cincinnati, we knew nothing but Cincinnati chili, heck we hardly even knew of Texas or for that matter green chili! Cincinnati Chili was it, the be all and end all, the bomb. To us Cincinnatians, it is and always will be the best chili in the world. For the past 25 years
Chicken Green Chili Stew
Sure smells good in my house… A big pot of Green Chili Chicken Stew is simmering away! So Fall in Colorado has more than a few things going for it. Besides amazing weather, Hatch Green Chili’s are in season and the Bronco’s football is too. Us Colorado folk are pretty much obsessed with the two.
Chopped Cobb Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette
After a crazy weather week in Colorado some comfort food is in order. Chopped Cobb Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette is my go to meal when I need something yummy! As you have probably seen on the news, Colorado experienced something that has never happened before in our State history. We had massive flooding from an enormous amount of
Black Bean and Sausage Soup
Fall is in the air and Black Bean and Sausage soup is what is for dinner tonight. An all day rainy day in Colorado, is kinda like winning the lotto. Well not really, but if I were a plant, I’d sure think so! All kidding aside, we need the rain, and I needed an excuse

Zucchini and Eggplant Parmesan
Zucchini and Eggplant Parmesan it’s what for dinner this weekend. I only say this because, it’s a little time consuming to make it but sooooo worth it! So my garden is still producing like crazy and along with a over 100 zucchini this summer, my eggplants are now ready to be picked. While eggplant is
Corn and Leek Chowder
Corn and Leek Chowder is on the menu today. Every State claims they have the BEST corn ever. I’m sure it is. I grew up in Ohio, we got our corn, the salt and pepper kind, at Aicholtz Farm, (now Newtown Market) it was yummy. I also remember devouring really good sweet corn on
Asian Lettuce Wraps
Craving Asian Lettuce Wraps? I was, and it was what was for dinner Saturday night. After a long day being out and about on Saturday, my poor dogs needed some attention. So going out to grab some Asian Lettuce Wraps was out of the question. (Dog Mommy guilt kept me home). I love lettuce wraps.
Zucchini Soup
Zucchini Soup is on the menu today! I apologize in advance… I have Zucchini coming out of my ears and there may be a few posts involving zucchini! My garden is going gang busters and besides giving away a ton of zucchini already, I still need to figure out what to do with the
