Quick and Easy Shrimp Creole
Let the good times roll with this spicy New Orleans classic
Mardi Gras – aka Fat Tuesday – is next week. And you know what that means, right?
Par-tee!
Even if you don’t have much time to cook, you can whip up the perfect dish. Shrimp Creole (a classic dish made all over Louisiana) is extremely fast to put together.
Which works for us. Because less time in the kitchen means more time to eat and drink. And party!

Chunky Chicken Chili with Green Chilies
Warm up with a spicy and flavorful bowl
This time of year, the days are short in our part of the world. And the nights are cold. Fortunately, we have chili to keep us warm.
Chicken chili is a bit lighter than the beef version, so we don’t sink down in our snowshoes. But green chilies and white beans make it plenty tasty and hearty.
Good thing this recipe yields a big batch. You’ll want seconds.

Best of all, they’re easy to make. So you’ll have more time to sip champagne with your sweetie.

The Hanky Panky Cocktail
Perfect for Valentine’s Day
In February, our thoughts naturally turn to Hanky Panky (the cocktail, of course).
And if the name sounds like the title of a Noël Coward play, well, that’s fitting: It was invented for an actor who mentored Coward.
More history in a bit. First, we need to learn how to mix this beauty. Because your sweetheart awaits.
