(Gluten Free) Magic Cookie Bars

I did a combination of two recipes, peanut butter cookies with three ingredients and magic cookie bars. My brother-in-law loves magic cookie bars but is now gluten-free. I have been trying to come up with desserts for him so he doesn't feel left out. This is an amazing dessert and will stay fresh for days...if they last that long in your house! Perfect for Passover - no flour!

Grilled Garlic Rabbit

Grilled Garlic Rabbit

Rabbit and garlic-a very different take on your classic grilling option. Always a great conversation starter, these bunnies will make your mouth water! We use rabbits that were hunted in the great Southwest desert during rabbit season. However, a lot of local stores sell rabbit as well. The 'wild hares' here are smaller and leaner than their supermarket counterparts, so I use two smaller rabbits and adjust the cook time during rabbit season or one large rabbit in the off time.

Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot)

Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot)

This Italian sausage recipe is easy and versatile. Follow directions for sausage patties, or use the meat mixture in spaghetti sauce or meatballs. You can take it from mild to hot by adjusting the spices, and can substitute ground turkey or ground chuck — just not ground beef! If using turkey, you'll have to coat your skillet with a little oil before cooking the sausage as turkey has very little fat and the sausage might stick to the skillet without it.

Spinach, Tomato, and Feta Quinoa Salad

Spinach, Tomato, and Feta Quinoa Salad

This quinoa, tomato, and feta salad is a quick and healthy side dish alternative to rice and pasta. It will make a quinoa-lover out of anyone thanks to the salty feta and sweet Campari tomatoes. My kids even like it!

Pork Afritada

Pork Afritada

Pork, liver, and potatoes are cooked in a tomato base to make this Filipino stew elegant enough for special occasions.

Grilled Halibut Foil Packs

Grilled Halibut Foil Packs

Grilling halibut in foil packets keeps the fish moist and tender. It also prevents the delicate fillets from breaking apart on the grill.We like this with a simple green salad and some crusty bread.
