This week I decided to fire up the grill and make some burgers. I wanted something more gourmet than a regular cheeseburger. I settled on this recipe for Blue Cheese Burgers. There’s blue cheese right in the patty! You can use feta, cheddar, or another favorite cheese if you don’t like blue cheese.

These Pineapple Chicken Bites, like a lot of the recipes I make, are really easy to cook, but flavorful.

I love trying out fajita recipes, mainly because I love fajitas. This recipe for Chicken Fajitas calls for half of a packet of fajita seasoning. I like my fajitas a little more subtly flavored and I’ve found that using the entire packet makes the meat over seasoned for my tastes.

This recipe for Blackberry Breakfast Cake actually began as Blueberry Breakfast Cake and it can be used with almost any fruit.

The cake is soft and crumbly without being dry and has a slight kick that could only be accomplished with buttermilk. It really is one of my new favorite recipes.
