My parents have a cabin on a small lake in northern Wisconsin. When we’re there, we all love to spend the day fishing, swimming, and kayaking, so lunch is sort of an afterthought. My mom (Nancy) often brings a slow cooker filled with Italian beef. All we have to do is find time to stop playing and enjoy this tasty meal.

This is an easy meal that my dad always makes in September when we bow hunt. You can use venison tenderloin if desired.
When we traveled to Ethiopia to adopt our boys, my mouth was introduced to some amazing new and exotic flavors! If you’ve ever been to Ethiopia, you know the word berbere . It is the main spice mix that Ethiopians use in their cooking. It is quite spicy, so you can add more or less to your liking. But if you don’t want to make a batch yourself, you can find berbere in specialty spice stores as well as online. Chicken thighs are more ketogenic and tastier than bland, skinless chicken breasts, and the skin helps make this dish more…
Doro watt is a traditional dish that my husband and I enjoyed during our visits to Ethiopia to meet and then adopt our baby boys. I’ve added my twist on it here, turning it into a chicken salad and using my Berbere Mayo to give it an ethnic flair. If you want to make this recipe even easier, pick up an organic rotisserie chicken and use it to make the chicken salad.
Turkey is an excellent source of selenium, iron, zinc, and B vitamins. It spoils quickly, so store it in the refrigerator after shaping the burgers.
Crayfish is low in fat and a good source of selenium and zinc. Its mild flavor makes a good foil for the strong herbs.
These hand pies are super-tasty and really cute to serve. If you love them as much as we do, I highly suggest making a quadruple batch and storing unbaked pies in the freezer for easy meals: all you have to do is pop one in the toaster oven or oven!
This tasty meal reminds me of Thanksgiving dinner, but without the hassle! Braising turkey legs seems daunting, but it creates one amazing meal without much daunting work.
