For all of you faithful readers out there, I’ve been on a bit of a banana kick with recipes lately. I’m throwing a curveball, or rather, an orange ball this time. I’ve covered plenty of fruits in this column, strawberries, blueberries, the aforementioned banana, but never the trusty orange. Maybe that’s because most people only get this […]
Jason’s Soup Recipe is No Jive Turkey
I recently found myself in possession of a surprise turkey. Perhaps you too have experienced this phenomenon. Someone has a giant frozen turkey for which they have no room in their freezer, so they do a sneak attack visit where they stop by to “say hello” and then suddenly your freezer is at maximum turkey […]
Jason’ recipe is putting the beef in stroganoff
In my previous life, Beef Stroganoff was only possible if it came out of a box of Hamburger Helper. Looking at the ingredients, the only thing that product was helping was my waistline expanding and future medical bills to skyrocket. Ingredients Enriched Pasta (Wheat Flour, Niacin, Ferrous Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Dairy Solids, […]
Jason Explains the WHY of it All
There may be some of you that read this series but don’t really buy into the why of it all. I’ve shared the before and after pics showing how I lost eighty pounds of body fat and added lean muscle by avoiding pre-packaged foods with Tolstoy length ingredient lists. I’ve written out the recipes I’ve […]
We All Scream with Jason for No Ice Cream
Want a chocolatey peanut buttery ice cream treat? Of course you do. Want it to be full of protein, healthy fats, and minerals? Don’t care, you say? I get it. But now you can have your ice cream and eat it too, all while fueling your lean muscle mass and reducing blood sugar impacts. How? […]
Jason kicks butt with this Noodle Kung Fu recipe
Anytime I make a dish with noodles, I think about Kung Fu Panda. I guess it’s because that movie came out when my youngest son was four years old, so I figure I have watched the first one at least one million, five hundred and seventy-five times, on a conservative estimate. It’s so ingrained in […]
Recipe Replay: Jason’s Truffles have Banana, Peanut Butter, Chocolate & No Regrets
Dear readers, we have been on a roll with both songs and bananas as of late. I’ll give you a break with the former this week, but we will stick with the latter for one more ride. Bananas are easy to get and relatively cheap as fruits go, they travel well, and contrary to rumors, don’t really […]
The Perfect Light Lemony Lemon Cake this week with Jason
It’s getting hot. The days of heavy meals are distant memories now, shaky images in the rearview mirror of culinary winter. I still need dessert, though, no matter if it feels like Venus on a bad day outside right now. It needs to be light, it needs to be refreshing, and it needs to be healthy. […]
Recipe Re-Run: Shirtless Chef creates sides that won’t give your sides a spare tire
Whether it’s fish, BBQ, or burgers, the best part of summer eats to me was always the sides. Potato salad, cole slaw, fries and hushpuppies… those were always what I really loaded up on at the lake picnic. I would severely test the tensile strength of my paper plate on the precarious walk back to […]
Cinnamon Rolls without the Belly Rolls this week with Jason
Who doesn’t love cinnamon rolls? I wasn’t picky about them back when I ate whatever crossed my path. It could be homemade and fresh baked, or a stale gas station special wrapped in cellophane. I devoured them all. In my high school years, I worked the summers and weekends with a landscaping crew. It was hard labor. […]
