Recipe: Grilled Steak Fiesta Salad

Grilled Steak Fiesta Salad from www.thisgalcooks.com

I love a good salad. When I say good salad, I mean a salad that has delicious toppings and dressing, not a salad with meat, cheese and dressing. Well, I could go for meat, cheese and dressing if the meat was extraordinary in flavor, such as the meat used in the salad I am sharing [...]

Recipe: Deep Dish Taco Pie

Deep Dish Taco Pie - This Gal Cooks (wm)

One of my favorite types of food is Mexican style  food. Tacos, enchiladas, fajitas, chili rellanos. You name it, I probably like it.

I love a good juicy burger. I’d say my favorite type of burger is quite classic: a grilled chuck burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo and cheese (usually cheddar or American.) Sometimes I like to go outside the box and try something different. When I used to frequent Five Guys, I used to get a [...]

Meatloaf. The versatile meal that can be prepared in many different ways. I’ve tasted many delicious meatloaves and I’ve tasted some pretty bland ones. I’ve made some pretty rad ones but I don’t recall ever making any bad ones. Heh Heh, I just made a rhyme.  Recently I decided to make a BBQ meatloaf with [...]

Beefy Nachos

Beefy Nachos

I don’t know about you but I love a dish of loaded nachos. Sometimes Ken and I order them as our meal when we go out. They always provide more than enough food for both of us. Sometimes I make them at home. I’ve made them at home many times, each time using slightly different [...]

Taco Lasagna

I’ve been craving Mexican food lately (ok, well, it’s more of a constant craving – I don’t think I’ve ever been sick of Mexican food) so tonight I decided to make Taco Lasagna. This is something I basically threw together, with a little inspiration from other recipes I’ve made, such as my Chicken Enchilada Casserole.  This [...]
