Chris' Weekly Recipes.

Cornbread Salad

This crowd-pleasing cornbread salad is quite unique but tastes great!

Easy Turkey Taco Soup

Easy soup to make using ingredients that I always have on hand. My husband loves this stuff. He likes to put a big spoonful of leftover mashed potatoes in the bowl and cover it with the soup.

Chicken Mole

A dark, rich, complex-flavored mole recipe. I generally shred the chicken so it will soak up the mole sauce and serve it with warmed tortillas.

Shipwreck Casserole

This shipwreck casserole might not be pretty, but it is a tasty, busy-night, kid-friendly meal. 

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

They're so rich and chewy!

Creamy Tuscan Chicken Pasta

This creamy chicken and spinach pasta dish has lots of Italian flavor thanks to aged Asiago cheese and sun-dried tomatoes.

Cowboy Macaroni

This cowboy mac and cheese includes a hearty combination of lean ground beef, macaroni, and cheese, plus a tomato sauce that will make you jump up and click your spurs together. It's a favorite meal of any cowboy.

Potato Casserole

​This recipe is golden, cheesy, and full of flavor.

Stuffed Mushroom Dip

Whether you’re hosting a game day party or contributing to the holiday table, this dip will have everybody coming back for more. “Honestly, I would just spoon this dip over some pasta and call it a day!”

Chicken Tortilla Soup

This comforting chicken tortilla soup with shredded chicken, black beans, and corn is quick to make, full of flavor, and very filling! Garnish with chopped fresh avocado, Monterey Jack cheese, crushed tortilla chips, and green onion.

Real Welsh Rarebit

This classic Welsh rarebit makes a great lunch or brunch dish. You can use your favorite local beer, mustard, and any strong Cheddar cheese in this recipe. If you don't like beer, you can replace it with milk; it will still taste great!

Keto Chicken Crust Pizza

This chicken pizza crust is a great-tasting option if you're on the keto diet. Once the crust is baked, top it with your favorite toppings, or eat it as-is with more cheese and fresh basil on top.

Pistachio Fluff Fruit Salad

This pistachio fluff fruit salad is a deliciously light and fluffy dessert made with pistachio pudding, whipped topping, marshmallows, bananas, and canned fruit. Always a hit!

Dijon Chicken

Dijon chicken is an incredibly easy and deliciously creamy dish made with pan-seared chicken thighs, tender onions, white wine, herbs, heavy cream, and plenty of Dijon mustard.

Steak 'n' Fries Salad

I lived in Pittsburgh for 5 years and never would have thought I'd ever see French fries in a salad. You will probably only see this recipe in Pittsburgh restaurants which makes it special and unique!

Chicken In Basil Cream

This recipe is a welcome change from the usual fried chicken. The cream sauce gives it a wonderful flavor.

Charleston Red Rice

This red rice recipe is yummy and easy to make.

Grilled Balsamic Beef

This grilled balsamic beef would be one of my signature dishes if I were a chef at a barbecue restaurant. The aged balsamic vinegar-based marinade is perfectly balanced, and grilling over high heat creates a beautiful sear.

Ultimate Cowboy
Caviar

Chef John's crowd-pleasing cowboy caviar "is one of the greatest party dips of all time." This version uses 3 kinds of peppers—fresh, pickled, and roasted—and an easy custom dressing to take it to the next level.

Italian Chicken
Skillet

This Italian chicken skillet recipe is a delicious and easy dinner! The best part is that it cooks all in one skillet so there is hardly any mess!
