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.

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 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!!

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

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

It’s hard to believe that Crawfish Season is coming to an end. This Louisiana girl loves Crawfish. Since Crawfish season is coming to a close, I think I will add this to Summer, my Cajun Chicken Boil. Using the same ingredients of a regular boil- potatoes, corn, sausage, onions, seafood boil seasoning- and substituting crawfish for chicken wings, along with a new product from Louisiana Fish Fry, the Cajun Drip Viet-Cajun. The Butter Seasoning Mix is available in a few other flavors such as Chili Crush and Twisted Citrus. This is the perfect boil to kick start your Summer.

Our teenager was out of town at a basketball camp for a few days. On her way back home she texted and asked could we make her something good to eat? ???????? She’s spoiled.

Her daddy made her favorite Surf and Turf Fried Rice. This is one of the easiest meals to make on our Blackstone.

Fish Friday is something we have very often. Growing up in Louisiana we ate Fish on Friday every week. When we eat fried fish tartar sauce is a must have condiment. We didn’t have any bottled tartar sauce left from the last time we cooked fried fish. So I decided to make my own with the ingredients I had on hand.

I have a few versions of tartar sauce. This is my easiest one.

A new collaboration means a new recipe. Marukan Vinegar is “rice vinegar that plays an important role by adding bright, tangy notes, adding flavor to any dish, enhancing flavors of other ingredients as well as balancing sweet, salty, fatty and acidic components of a recipe”. Oxtails is a dish we grew up eating. It’s still one of the most requested dishes in our house with my family. Oxtails can be fatty, so I decided to marinate the oxtails in the Marukan Vinegar that has no sodium or sugar. As well as marinate veggies to top the dish with.

A very popular restaurant serving many Louisiana classics like étouffée, fried seafood, burgers, Poboys and much more.
