Bacon Wrapped BBQ Shrimp Po Boy Goes to College~!

I am delighted to share this with you! A wonderful Young Man, Arthur King appeared on Paula Deen's "Best Dishes" Show a few months ago. Arthur's specialty is taking College aged People away from eating "Ramen Noodles" to eating Real food without killing their budget. He concentrates on things that are Easy to make, Flavorful and easy on the budget!

When I saw him on Paula Deen I knew I had a resource for him. I contacted him and let him know I have a cookbook that could really be a resource for his mission. My 5 Ingredient Solutions Cookbook is not only an easy trek through making good food, but it's also very budget friendly. He apparently thought so too, because he highlighted the Cookbook and my Blog in one of his recent videos!!!
Bacon Wrapped BBQ Shrimp Po Boys, Remember those???

Check out the video!

Awesome job Arthur and Kira!!! It really was a good Sandwich wasn't it?
You can keep up with Arthur on his Facebook Page and His Website.

Easter Dinner from my Blog...

As you all know I love a good challenge. My friend Kim over at The Farmers Wife decided that because one of our mutual friends challenged her that she would in turn challenge me. You're saying ok, ok..what's the challenge??? Well the challenge is to make the Easter Holiday meal from dishes we already have on our blog.
now,the only holiday meals I have on my blog were of New Years.. remember the Lobster Ravioli???

But is that an Easter meal??? naaah...

I think I'd rather go with the Stuffed Cabbage if it has to be something from my blog. The Stuffed Cabbage is "Spring" like..in that the freshness of the sauce and the heartiness of the filling combined make it a pretty substantial Meal! Don't you agree?
A wonderful old fashioned Sunday Meal! Love it, in its simplicity yet ohh so good flavor!

Now side dishes are kind of hard to go with Stuffed Cabbage, but a good salad and some home made rolls would be great here!

The homemade rolls I got from Kim would be great here too!!

Now dessert??? Oh I have an array of desserts to choose from...My question here is ..Do I pick difficult or easy?
It's a Holiday..it should be special ...no? Ok, lets go with something spring like...I just passed this recipe along the other day to someone who was looking for something light and springy to take along with her to an Easter Dinner...

My Lemon Coconut Tarts.
They are a great little nosh, that always comes out Perfect!

Well that's the Challenge my friends...My Easter Meal from my Blog...Now if you need Quick and Easy Ideas..You can always pick up my New Cookbook:

5 Ingredient Solutions!

Hi Everyone! I am as proud as proud can be!
MY new Cookbook has been published on Amazon!
It will be available this afternoon for Kindle!!!
How amazing is that?!?!
I am ecstatic to say the least.

I was inspired by a Blogging Challenge I did at the beginning of the year. The idea is that You have 5 Quality Ingredients that you make into a Fabulous Dish! The criteria: Salt, Pepper, Water and an "oil" agent to prepare a pan don't count. Everything else does! A tough task, but so worth it in the end.When I completed the challenge I had so many more ideas, that I couldn't help but continue on with the idea!
5 Ingredient Recipes are a phenomenal way to make something that is Flavorful and Fast! It is exactly what the Modern Family needs today! Something to get them away from that dreaded Drive thru and into their kitchen!
It was a great challenge and now a Beautiful First Book in a series of Books. When beginning the book, I came up with 3-4 variations on the recipes and thought a series of 5 Ingredient Solutions would be a fabulous way to bring these ideas to light!
This First book encompasses all facets of Cooking. From Breakfast to Appetizers, Quick Lunches to a Sunday Family Dinner! The idea is that You have 5 Quality Ingredients that you make into a Fabulous Dish!
The cover image for example is a wonderful dessert, absolutely viable for a Company's Coming Dessert but easy enough to make on a weeknight for the family! That's the point of all of the recipes.
In the coming months I will be doing "Single Themed" 5 Ingredient Solutions...such as "Breakfast in a Flash" !
I can't relay my excitement anymore than to tell you how grateful I am for your interest in my blog and your wonderful commentary and questions. Thank you so much for being here!

I know you will love 5 Ingredient Solutions as much as I do, Enjoy!
