Is it cooked? Do you want your beef rare? Medium? Well Done? Here’s the guide. Be sure to use a meat thermometer.
Easy Power Breakfast
I’m usually a cold cereal kind of gal, but every so often, especially after a hard workout, I need eggs. And cheese.
This is so easy…
Tomato Pie
Mmmmmm….tastes like summer. When tomatoes are in season, this is a perfect side-dish for a picnic or party. Go ahead and make two.
Beef Tenderloin with Peppercorns
For a special occasion. This recipe is easy and delicious. Be sure to use a meat thermometer – you don’t want to overcook the meat.
White Chicken Chili
Nice break from standard beef chili. Perfect for leftover chicken.
A little bit of Tuscany, at home
Visiting the medieval Tuscan town of San Gimignano in Italy this past fall, I stepped into a butcher shop to ask for directions. Little did I know that this inquiry would lead me to a wonderful Italian spice mix that has become a drug (uh, I mean staple) in my home.
Chicken Tamale Casserole
Tastes like a tamale, but it’s less than 400 calories per serving.

This is the first Pinterest posted recipe that I tried (and loved). PERFECT for a bridal or baby shower (or bootcamp friends). Simply Yummy.
Ham Hock, Red Beans and Rice
A family favorite. Emeril’s classic recipe was suggested to me by a good friend from the Big Easy…
