1929 Po-boy Kitchen

1929 Po-boy Kitchen

My family and I visited 1929 several months ago. As I was planning my content for the next few weeks, I made sure to add this one to the list. 1929 is the home of the Oxtail Yakamein. What is this you ask, Oxtail Yakamein is a beef noodle soup with creole seasonings.

Being from Louisiana, I have to admit that I had never eaten this until I visited 1929. I only heard about Yakamein when I was watching a Netflix Show called “Street Food”. They shared all about this New Orleans style dish.

My husband has heard of it and had eaten it prior to us dining at 1929. But he went to college in New Orleans and lived and worked in New Orleans for several years.

In addition to Yakamein, 1929 serves several Louisiana classics like red beans and rice, poor boys, seafood and much more.

Turkey Parmesan Sandwich

Turkey Parmesan Sandwich

Chicken Parmesan is one of my favorite Italian dishes. This is my go to when we dine at Italian Restaurants. I picked up this new sauce by Mezzetta called Truffle, Porcini & Cream which was how this new recipe idea came about for dinner. This sauce is so delicious and was the perfect choice for my Turkey Parmesan Sandwich.

I replaced the chicken with Turkey breast instead of the chicken breast. A great choice. So delicious.

In addition to this new sauce, Smoked mozzarella was superb on this sandwich.

This was my very first time at Passerella. My daughter and hubby has dine here before for their daddy/daughter dinner date. They loved it so much, they insisted that I had to try it.

My husband made reservations for us for Easter lunch.

Steak in a Pizza Oven

Steak in a Pizza Oven

I purchased this Grizzler pan for the OONI Pizza oven. The Grizzler pan is made of cast iron.  The Cast-iron pan with ridged surface is great for grilling meat, vegetables and more. Designed to fit all Ooni oven models. This pan is also ideal for use on all indoor cooktops or outdoor grills. Included is removable handle and beechwood serving board. I decided to change things up with the preparation of the steak, I used a brand new kitchen item. This grizzler pan is awesome.

Cajun Collard Green & Cabbage

Cajun Collard Green & Cabbage

I have a confession, I’m not much of a vegetable eater? I know, I know, yes I need vegetables. But I have a few that I like. Collard greens are an excellent source of vitamin A, C, and calcium. In addition, rich in vitamin K, and a good source of iron, vitamin B-6, and magnesium. Collard greens are very good for you. This is something that I do eat.

Cabbage is a good source of Vitamin C, high in fiber and Vitamin K.

Collard greens + Cabbage = a very nutritious dish.

Today I’m sharing my Cajunified Collard Greens and cabbage dish.

Very simple and easy to make.

Simmering Pots

Simmering Pots

I love Candles. Almost everyday a candle is lit and leaves our home feeling so fresh. In addition to scented candles, I love Simmer Pots.Simmer Pots are also inexpensive in comparison to candles. Simmer Pots can be made year round.What is a simmer pot you ask? Well I’m glad that you asked. A simmering pot is a pot that is filled fragrant items that fills your home with refreshing scents.

Cajun Pizza

Cajun Pizza

Most of the pizzas I make will not include a traditional red sauce. Fun fact about me, I have acid reflux so I often avoid tomato based sauces on my pizza.

This new pizza creation is my Cajun Pizza. This one has a shrimp scampi sauce as the base. This pizza was superb.
