Cajun Salmon Salad

Cajun Salmon Salad

Kickstarting my week with a NEW Salad recipe. This Salmon Pasta Salad was so good. Fun fact about me, I don’t love salads. But I have found ways to prepare salads that have become some of my favorites. Now I love toppings. Having different textures in my salads make for a more enjoyable salad. This Salmon pasta salad was a hit even with my kids. I usually don’t use arugula because it’s not a salad we use. But arugula paired perfectly with this dish.

Wonderland, Imaginative Dinner

Wonderland, Imaginative Dinner

Wonderland is an imaginative dining and culinary experience. This sounds fancy and let me tell you it was. This dinner was a James Beard worthy dining experience. We love eating out, but not just a basic dining experience, we love a fancy meal.

Wonderland was definitely all of that. Wonderland is an additional cost, but so worth it.  The restaurant is an Alice in Wonderland themed dining experience. With the dishes they definitely push the envelope with culinary creations.

Cajun Pasta with H-E-B

Cajun Pasta with H-E-B

For those who maybe new here, I’m an H-E-B brand fan. I love sharing some of my favorite dishes with H-E-B products. I recently prepared a Cajun Pasta. This was an easy meal that I prepared in under 30 minutes. The recipe required only a few simple ingredients. This dish is sauce, tasty and is a cajun-ified dish. 

Fish Sandwich

Fish Sandwich

Fish Sandwiches are one of my favorite ways to eat fish. There are a few places locally that I love to eat Fish Sandwiches. Every fish sandwich should consist of good bread, a delicious condiment, crispy fish, crispy pickles, lettuce, tomatoes.
I picked up a new condiment the NEW Jalapeno Mayo from McCormick. This mayo is so good! Only a few simple ingredients made this delicious fish sandwich. So good!!

Easy Crawfish Étouffée

Easy Crawfish Étouffée

It’s officially Crawfish season. Me like many others, I love when Crawfish season comes around. I want all things Crawfish. One of the easiest things to cook is Crawfish étouffée. I have a few versions of my étouffée. But I took a shortcut with a product from Slap ya Mama called their Cajun Étouffée sauce. These étouffée sauce makes it so easy for anyone to make Crawfish étouffée. I added a few extra things to mine but it’s delicious as is. @slapyamama

Box Combo at Home

Box Combo at Home

When you hear the word Box Combo, what comes to mind? For me it’s Raising Canes. I love Raising Canes. For those who don’t know Raising Canes originated in Baton Rouge, LA. Now I have to say, Canes is better in Louisiana than here in Texas. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking with it.

Though I love Canes, I don’t eat it often. One day, I was craving it and decided to make my own version at home.  This meal was a hit with the entire family. Much cheaper than picking this up at Raising Canes. 

Fly By Jing Noodles

Fly By Jing Noodles

I had the honor of collaborating with a company called Fly by Jing. Jing founded Fly By Jing in 2018. Her company was inspired by the amazing flavors of my hometown Chengdu and its famous fly restaurants— These were soulful hole-in-the-wall eateries. She said that the food at these eateries were so good, they attracted diners like flies. @flybyJing

We do loud, delicious, and unforgettable—a full-on flavor arsenal of noodles, sides, and sauces inspired by the soul of Sichuan. Founded by Chef Jing Gao, what began as a personal mission to introduce chili crisp to Americans has expanded into a gateway for cultural change. Using only real, high-quality ingredients (nothing artificial, ever), we create eye-opening flavors that transform the way you feel about flavor”.

Southwestern Fish Tacos

Southwestern Fish Tacos

Our week days can be very busy. I’m often looking for ways to feed my crew quickly. Not to mention in an inexpensive way. Eating fast food isn’t healthy and can be very costly. I love to dine out but I want to spend our money on dining out not jug picking up food to go.

This taco recipe is so easy and very good
