Creamy Pasta with Chicken and Sun-dried Tomato Pesto

Pasta is often my go-to food when I’m in a hurry and need to churn out something quickly.  Like “10-15 minutes” quickly.  Pasta is one of those things that requires very little effort to make taste good.  Take my Lemon-Garlic Shrimp Scampi, for example.  Within 10 minutes you’ve got a dish that’s fit for any [...]The post Creamy Pasta with Chicken and Sun-dried Tomato

Bacon and Leek Quiche

Almost everything tastes better with bacon, don’t you think? And to be fair, bacon really gets a bad rap – as do a lot of things that the food industry decides to target for a time, and so we avoid them for a decade or two resorting to “safer” alternatives just to find out that [...]The post Bacon and Leek Quiche appeared first on The Daring Gourmet.

Sweet Potato Corn Chowder

Easy Homemade Mexican Chorizo

SALIVARY GLANDS AND LYMPH NODES. That’s what you’ll find in the list of ingredients of a lot of  store-bought chorizo.
