Pineapple Baked Pork Chops

Pineapple Baked Pork Chops

Sadly summer is gone but you can still get some fun flavor with these Pineapple Baked Pork Chops. They cook quickly and taste amazing with the pineapple slices on top! This is a must try if you are trying to liven up your dinner from the same ole pork chops! I will say though that if you can’t eat pineapple hot from the oven, then just leave the slices off while baking and add them once they are out of the oven.  Continue reading “Pineapple Baked Pork Chops”

Taco Stuffed Avocados

Taco Stuffed Avocados

I love tacos! They are just so yummy and there are so many ways you can switch them up. I also am completely obsessed with avocados so the idea to stuff my two favorites together was just too good. Baking them inside the avocados is like having a taco wrapped in it’s own guacamole! Delicious! The best part is that with the leftover avocado you scoop out, you can make some Last Minute Guacamole or some Guacamole BruschettaContinue reading “Taco Stuffed Avocados”

Grilled Mahi Mahi with Corn and Avocado Salad

Grilled Mahi Mahi with Corn and Avocado Salad

This is such a delicious way to prepare mahi mahi, it’s so easy and flavorful! This grills up nice and quick and goes perfectly with the salad. My husband and I had a kid free night a few weeks back and decided to stay home and have a night of cooking things that we always want to try but our children would never let us hear the end of for making it. I used frozen filets and just let them thaw till it was time to grill. You can also prep the salad ahead of time and put in the fridge till it’s time to eat. For something so easy, it tasted absolutely amazing! I practically inhaled the whole plate and wished I made more because it was that good!  Continue reading “Grilled Mahi Mahi with Corn and Avocado Salad”

Beer Marinated Chicken Wings

Beer Marinated Chicken Wings-2

One of the best things about summer is the ability to put your grill to good use! Living in the northeast, the grill gets retired for a portion of the year so we really take advantage when the opportunity arises! These wings are a perfect thing for a grill night. The marinade makes the wings moist and flavorful and a great addition for any BBQ! I used Bud Light Lime for this as it added a little extra lime flavor, I would recommend a light beer like that, a Corona works too.  Continue reading “Beer Marinated Chicken Wings”
