Teriyaki Chicken

This teriyaki chicken is the closest I’ve come to matching the teriyaki chicken served at our favorite local sushi restaurant. I use my Flank Steak Marinade recipe with the addition of cornstarch or flour to help thicken the sauce into a rich teriyaki glaze.

Lime Chicken

My family loves this lime chicken in tacos and on salads and nachos. The chicken caramelizes when cooked in the lime juice, creating browned, slightly crispy edges with a tender and juicy interior.

Sweet potato fries are a yummy alternative to standard French fries. I like using a combination of sweet potatoes and yams to get a nice mix of colors.

I use this pie crust whenever I make berry pies. It is thin and light, and it has a great buttery flavor that complements any type of filling.

The following guacamole recipe is my family’s favorite version but we change up the ingredients depending on what we have on hand. We really like the combination of the salsa verde with the chopped tomatoes but if we don’t have salsa verde, we use any other salsa.

Southwest Tuna Melt

Tuna fish sandwiches are such an easy meal for lunches and dinners. Southwest flavors {salsa verde, chiles, avocado} give the tuna melt spice and character while light sour cream (instead of mayo) makes the tuna fish salad lower in fat without sacrificing any of the creaminess.

Lasagna

Ever since I can remember my family has had my Grandma’s lasagne for our Christmas Eve dinner. I have made a few slight changes to my Grandma’s recipe to make it lighter but it has the same hearty, comforting flavors.
