Spending the afternoon with our friends and neighbors is always fun and we wanted to do something everyone would love. Zaycon Fresh to the rescue. We mixed lots of their super lean, top quality ground beef with sharp cheddar cheese and…
Lemon Ginger Chicken Strips Ken wanted teriyaki chicken strips, Patti promised to do it better, and she did, without all the sodium of bottled teriyaki sauce. She had all the help she needed with Zaycon Fresh chicken breasts (this one chicken breast was over 2lbs.) cut into strips, and a marinade including Big Dick’s “Big Kahuna” Seasoning and Country Bob’s Honey Habanero All Purpose Sauce.…

"Guest Chef" CHEF G's CAJUN CATFISH COURTBOUILLION A Louisiana Courtbouillon (pronounced COO-be-yon) is completely different than the French Court Bouillon, which is an aromatic liquor or stock used as a cooking liquid. The Louisiana Cajun Courtbouillion is a thick, rich fish stew that starts with a traditional dark roux. There is also a Creole style Courtbouillion, which is typically a whole fish, usually Redfish, stuffed…
South of the Border Fatty We had 4 couples and a few stray friends from our Church over for dinner. I had it all planned out. We would do 8 styles of ribs, plated real nice with a little card that explained what kind of rub and the style I was trying to create. Well, that didn’t work. We had so many ribs that I…
CHEF G's MELISSA'S DE-LITE! This is a very special dish inspired by my good friend Chef Melissa in Beverly Hills. When I first saw a photo of this salad I was instantly intrigued. And I can say without hesitation that this is one of the most flavorful salads I’ve ever prepared and eaten. It's really very healthy, yet oozing culinary ecstasy! Now Melissa shared with…

https://youtu.be/8krH90wAMR8 We were invited to a neighbor’s potluck and asked to bring an appetizer. Ken wanted to bring little meatballs “Buffalo style”. Using our favorite ground beef aka Zaycon Fresh, which is so very lean, our meatballs didn’t shrink the way ordinary fattier ground beef does. So, instead of golf ball size we had more like tennis ball size. Ken seasoned them with Swimmin’ in…

But that's cool because I enjoy the challenge of coming up with interesting chicken dishes to keep her tummy happy. This…
