Good Dinner Mrs. Mellen

I love edamame enjoying steamed with just a little sea salt. So good and healthy For a change I like to spice up Edamame with this hot sauce. If you want it with less heat use only one tablespoon Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce and three tablespoon low sodium soy sauce. Either way a deliciously tasty snack perfect for game day! Spicy Edamame   Ingredients: 16 Ounces Steamed Edamame 2 Tablespoons Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce 2 Tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce Garnish: Coarse Sea Salt   Cook Edamame according to package instructions. Place in medium combine. Mix hot chili sauce, and soy sauce and toss with Edamame. Sprinkle with Coarse Sea Salt. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

No time to cook shouldn't be an excuse not to have deliciously easy meal every night. With a little planning you can have a wonderful meal in thirty minutes. And marinating the pork chops over night infuses extra flavor and tenderness. This recipe is easily doubled to feed four. Add a fresh salad, crusty bread for a wonderfully tasty quick meal that is short on time and long on flavor. Roasted Pork Loin Chop White Beans for Two 2 thick Pork Loin chops 4 tablespoon olive oil 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 cloves chopped garlic 1 tablespoon crushed rosemary 1 teaspoon sweet paprika 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper  1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1 can(15.5 oz) cannellini beans, rinsed Place pork chops in leak proof plastic bag. Combine all the remaining ingredients except the beans in a bowl. Pour marinade into the plastic bag with pork chops shake to coat refrigerating overnight.  The following day preheat oven to 475F.  Place rinsed beans in bakin

Pasta is a deliciously quick, easy meal that you can prepare for a wonderful week meal. I like to customize my sauces by adding different ingredients.  I strongly recommend using San Marzano tomatoes from Italy my personal favorite. A plumb tomato the  flesh is much thicker with fewer seeds, and the taste is stronger, sweeter and less acidic than Roma tomatoes.  If you decide to use San Marzano tomatoes look for the label to be marked certified. Another splurge that I sometime indulge is buying fresh pasta especially fettuccini. Well worth the extra cost for a special meal. When I am cooking with canned tuna I always use Italian style tuna packed in olive oil which adds more flavor than regular can tuna. Pasta with Italian Tuna 2 tablespoon olive oil 4 clove minced garlic 1/2 cup chopped kalamata olives 2 teaspoon chopped capers 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper 1 can(28 oz) San Marzano Peeled Tomatoes, Cento 2 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaf 1 can yello
