I first tried one of Deanna’s stuffed mushrooms way back when we would have appetizer parties, drink wine, and not have to worry about how much you drank because there were no kids to wake up to. I loved them, got the recipe, and then tucked it away, forgetting about it. Recently, my husband unearthed it to make for a party and OMG!!!! I had totally forgotten how delicious they were. Gourmet and easy, this is the perfect dish to bring to your Oscar party this Sunday. –Alex

I have my mother-in-law to thank for this delicious dressing recipe. My husband and I are obsessed–we’ve been making it all the time and yesterday, as I was licking the mixing bowl clean (you think I’m joking, don’t you?) I thought I should share the love with the Breezy Mama readers. You can use it on any type of salad, but it’s garlicky, so I usually stick to a Caesar salad theme. The one I made last night had romaine lettuce, tomatoes, hard boiled egg, croutons and Parmesan cheese. A word of warning–a little goes a long way, so taste as you go, because if you overcoat the salad, it will be ruined. –Alex

When I was growing up, every Sunday, almost without fail, my mom would pack my brother and I up and drive the half hour to my grandparents house where us kids would accompany our grandma to church. After, we’d head back to their house, play tennis and on very special occasions, my grandma would serve this chili for lunch. I loved it, and now that I can cook, I have no idea why it was reserved for special occasions. It’s SO easy to make, and the ingredients are staples. I guess my grandma just liked keeping us on our toes. Perfect for a winter night, or some Superbowl football, it whips up in no time. Read More…
Brian (4th from right) knows fish.
I’ll be the first to admit that fish is not my thing. In fact, until I met my husband the only fish I ate was a tuna fish sandwich. Since he’s half Japanese, that wasn’t going to work and he was able to bring me over to the dark side where I now love sushi, and can muscle down a small fish steak. But this recipe is the exception to the rule. Our friend Brian’s creation, it makes fish tasty, with a slightly crunchy exterior and a moist interior. Take it from me, the person who would never order a fish dish in a restaurant–you’ll like it.

The Master Mind behind this delicious dish.
Have you had enough turkey and stuffing and want something completely different? Then try this dish. A couple years ago my parents went on a trip to India. India wasn’t one of their top tourist destinations, but, everything fell together perfectly and they decided to go for it. They went as part of a tour group, and at one point, my parents chose to break away and head south to Kerala (think the first few scenes of The Bourne Supremacy). No one else wanted to do it, others warned them against it, and it was the best decision they made. They rented a guided boat, complete with personal chef, which took them through the Backwaters of Kerala. My parents loved it, and looking back, it was one of their favorite parts of the trip. This recipe comes from that boat trip–quantities are vague, because it was given by mouth and there was a bit of a language barrier. –Alex Read More…
Thanksgiving was four days ago–but is your fridge still full of turkey? This recipe, by Rachael Ray, is a fabulous way to use it up. My mom turned me on to it–she loves it so much she creates gift baskets full of the ingredients and the printed recipe. It’s easy, yummy, and chances are, you all ready have all the ingredients. I can’t think of a better meal on a cold day, the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Enjoy!

Today’s Breezy Mama hospital series recipe comes from my friend Debbie. This is her Go To recipe when she needs to provide a easy dinner that everyone will enjoy. And I mean everyone–the kids gobbled it up, even the baby! Healthy, easy to make, and the kids will like it? What else could you want in a dish? Enjoy!
My friend Kareen is South African and as a result, she talks in a beautiful way, with words such as “darling” and “lovely” being a part of her regular vocabulary. There’s nothing so glamorous as having someone telling you, “Darling, this dish you made is simply lovely” in their gorgeous sing-song voice. So when we got home from the hospital and Kareen offered to bring dinner over, I knew that it would be just as fantastic as her, and indeed, I was not let down. Simply amazing, and according to Kareen, super easy to make as well.
