One-Pot Dishes are very convenient and easy to make. The most common one-pot dishes are pot roasts cooked in a crock- pot with potatoes and carrots. Soups are one-pot dishes too, right? I love one-pot dishes that involves rice, like jambalaya and paella. Add this pork & beans fried rice to the list.

I mentioned before that I love fresh corn, right? I’ll say it again, I love fresh corn. They’re perfect as boiled or grilled for grilled meat entries. Or chucked in kernels to cook in lots of butter. Or combined with black beans as a salad dish.

I had a little bit of leftover of the Kraft Honey Mustard barbecue sauce that I used with pork chops a few days ago so I decided to use ‘em all up with the chicken. I pretty much just used adobo as the basis of how I made this Honey Mustard Chicken & Red Potatoes. While adobo is a balance of salty and sour, this chicken dish is sweet and tangy.

I was inspired when I made this braised veal chops dish. As soon as I decided to cook the veal chops this way, I envisioned tenderly cooked veal with a delicious simmered wine sauce on top of yummy yummy red skinned mashed potatoes. It was definitely food orgasm.

But then I realized, I only had white wine. The recipes I found online used red wine which I believe would actually complement the veal chops nicely. After pacing a bit trying to decide whether I should proceed using white wine, I figured, why not? It’s not like some food connoisseur was going to suddenly appear in my kitchen then hit my hands with a wand for using white wine instead of red, right? And if that ever happens, I’d probably hit that person with the wine bottle for scaring the bejeezus out of me. Just saying……

Anyway, let me show you how I made the braised veal chops.

These salmon melts are sooooo easy and fast to make you don’t even actually have to refer to this recipe. You can get so creative with your own version after reading this one. Coz that’s excatly what I did after reading The Pioneer Woman’s tuna melts recipe. YUP, these salmon melts were inspired by TPW’s tuna melts.

I quickly made this after talking to my husband on the phone who was on his way home with our son from a few hours of Fishing. He asked what’s for lunch and I suggested salad since that’s what I was shoving in my mouth in between talking to him and salad was the fastest thing I could serve at that moment. But I figured I’d be nice and make something more substantial for them coz they were hungry. When I said I could make salmon melts which are like similar to tuna melts he said they better be ready in 10 minutes. Easy Peasy!

I saw the sweet potatoes at the grocery store the other day and they just made me crave for sweet potato chips. I dunno why but that’s exactly what I thought about a soon as I saw them. The last time I had anything with sweet potatoes was Thanksgiving of last year when I made sweet potato pies and sweet potato muffins so I figured I’m due for a sweet potato fix.
