These are not the enchiladas I grew up with my mother making. Spinach and potato enchiladas are actually fairly healthy and won’t make you feel as guilty about having too many. They combine the usual spices into a tasty sauce with hearty potatoes and spinach with a healthy serving of cheese.

This spicy potato salad is a tasty spin on a summer classic. There are a few ingredients that really kick up the flavor: jalapeno, chili powder, and cumin. Potato salad to me a comfort food and very filling. It’s an awesome side dish to take with you to a picnic or family gathering, just remember to be safe and wear a mask. There is still a pandemic out there.

We’ve been focusing a lot on salads because of how versatile salads can be. I think Joel also enjoys proving me wrong, since for long I was anti-salad as an entrée. So far, each salad he’s been making pack in a lot of flavor. I think the thing that takes the grilled salmon and lemon dill salad from a side to an entrée is having protein and complex flavors.

Cheesy lemon chicken and broccoli alfredo is one of my favorite pasta dishes, combining marinated chicken pan seered and cut up, with bow tie noodles all in a creamy lemony sauce. This could easily be converted into a one pot meal, but I split it up due to not having a large enough cast iron pot to bake this in.
