Maple Glazed Seared Scallops

June 4, 2019 By Lane Leave a Comment

Do you ever have those dishes that you only order in restaurants because you think that it’s just too complicated to make them at home?

And you pay a fortune for them, but what choice do you have?

That dish is scallops for me. And it turns out I DO have a choice. And so do you.

See, in reality, scallops are not at all difficult to make. In fact these Maple Glazed Seared Scallops are pretty darn easy. But shhh….I won’t tell if you won’t. And you will look like a superstar at your next dinner party.

You might have heard this story before, (you’ve probably lived this story before) but this particular ending is delicious! This Farro Salad is worth reading about!

I recently went out to lunch with a group of friends, at a restaurant I go to frequently. While looking at the menu, I was tempted to order my “usual”, but instead decided to take a chance on this Farro Salad. Thank goodness I did! As soon as I started eating, I decided this was a dish I needed to create at home. ASAP.

Maple Mustard Salmon

February 14, 2017 By Lane 25 Comments

Does anyone else feel like you are on a crazy carnival ride you can’t get off of? Between work and driving the kids to their million activities and trying to keep the house relatively organized, I’m exhausted. We had been hitting more fast food drive throughs as I would race home from work, pick the kids up from one activity and shuttle them to the next. I bet a lot of you feel exactly the same way I did! Dinner…we needed something quick. We needed something simple. We needed something worth eating. I came up with a solution: Maple Mustard Salmon. …

Bourbon Bacon Meatloaf

November 14, 2016 By Lane 11 Comments

My teenage daughter recently said to me “Mom, you don’t need to put bacon in everything!” with the exasperated sigh that all teenagers use when dealing with their mothers. Hmmm…we may be speaking different languages, because I sure don’t understand this comment! (Don’t worry, I’ll be checking her room for drugs, right after I finish writing this, because really-who says this?) Bacon? Bacon belongs on everything. Bacon should be it’s own food group.
