Something special from Mandy's kitchen...
I adapted this recipe from a Whole 30 paleo cookbook I had received as a gift years ago. My version isn’t quite paleo because I use organic frozen mixed vegetables, which include peas, corn, and green beans, but the original recipe calls for just diced …
I make an awesome coffee spice rub that I use to season almost every cut of red meat we throw on the grill. Whether it be a ribeye, skirt steak, London broil, New York strip, flat iron, you name it, my homemade spice rub gets …
This is another recipe adapted from my father-in-law. He makes the absolute best fried rice, but it is not gluten free and it also contains eggs, so unfortunately I never get to enjoy it when he makes it. It’s requested at all family gatherings, whether …

Mama’s meatloaf sounds like a hand-written family heirloom recipe passed down through generations; a tattered, sacred, grease-splattered note with words written in such fine cursive it’s almost impossible to read. Well, I’d like to tell you that were true here, but in this case, I’m …
