About the cooking blog...

We enjoy a good meal. 99 out of 100 times, this good meal takes place in our kitchen. We don't eat out very often, and when we do, we're rarely "wow-ed" by the food we get. The following are recipes that have passed through our kitchen. They're not always winners, but we'll tell you if they're not, and what should be changed to make them better. Enjoy!

Chili Lasagna and Orange Pie...

This was yet another busy week… so unfortunately, nothing too new this week. We made bourbon chicken one night…. but I didn’t feel like making it “right” due to time needed to do so… but it was decent nonetheless. Other than that.. we tried some new stuff…

What you see above is quite possibly the first ever Cincinnati Chili Lasagna… it was an idea I had… so.. I wanted to see it come into real life… I made it like I make my typical lasagna… but instead of mozzarella with the ricotta, I mixed Monterey Jack… and on top, I used cheddar…. it came out rather tasty… especially since I increased the amount of all of the spices in the chili by 50%.

Then today, Virginia got in the kitchen and made some awesomeness… after making oatmeal cookies last night, she made an Orange Meringue pie with some oranges we had lying around…

What do y’all think? It tasted pretty damn awesome to me… Virginia makes a great pie, but we need to work on pie crusts… cause these store-bought pie crusts aren’t … well… any good. But, crust aside, it was still pretty damn awesome.
