Pierogies with Sautéed Onion, Bacon, and Peas

This is a favorite recipe: Pierogies with Bacon, Sautéed Onion, Peas, and Sour Cream

Pierogies and Bacon, Yes!!!!

It is a Cooking Light Recipe, and I'm not sure how, but who am I to question the fine people at CL?

I use Greek yogurt in place of Sour Cream and I use more bacon than it calls for because bacon. Good luck getting four servings out of this. People gobble it up.

Sometimes we use Mrs. T's frozen Pierogies, but today, we had fresh (maybe from frozen) ones from Sprouts.

Enchilada Casserole with Spicy Black Beans

This is a favorite Sunday night recipe. It takes too much time to make during the week, but is perfect for the weekend.

Pro tip: The El Pato tomato sauce can be found in local grocery stores. Check the ethnic foods aisle.

Also, I make my own taco seasoning- save the sodium! Skinny Ms Taco Seasoning

Here is the recipe: Enchilada Casserole with Spicy Black Beans


























































Enjoy with a wine that can stand up to strong flavors. If you enjoy the one I did, I DARE YOU not to hear Ben Stein's voice.

Sushinobo in Vinings

No cooking today!

We walked to our favorite sushi spot: Sushinobo

We have been patrons here for years, and I feel a lot like Norm Peterson when I walk in (in the best possible way).






















That last roll is my special recipe- smoked salmon, jalapeño,cream cheese, and avocado with sesame seeds on top. Perfection. Also, the jalapeño was on fire.

Recipe: One Pan Cilantro-Lime Chicken with Rice and Black Beans

Tony found this recipe a while back, and I must say, it is super easy, super tasty, and not-so-caloric.

Today, we enjoyed with a Sabre Guacamole cup- 80 extra cals- but it really make the meal delicious.
