My Pick For Best Stuffing

So it's almost the big day- Thanksgiving!

I have tried many stuffing recipes in my past but my favorite has to be this one.

Something about the flavor, the simplicity and the freshness of the cranberries that make this stuffing a winner in my book.

If you are looking for a simple stuffing recipe, give this one a try!



Ps


I prefer it without the sausage...

The SW Chicken Bowl was the first item that I ever tried from Freshly and my immediate response was - Yum

The the thing that most impressed me was the actual chicken breast.  This chicken was moist, tender and flavorful

The entire bowl had a complexity of flavors and textures and it all worked.

Surprise Yum in my Club!

A pleasant surprise!

So upon visiting Fire on the Mountain I ordered a club sandwich.

Yes it was good as i mentioned in a previous blog post.

What I accidentally omitted was the following.  A special reason as to how why it was so good.

This club and two unique items that really made it special. 

First, there was a thin layer of not just onions but caramelized onions.  Yum!

Second, another level of delish was added to the already existing multi levels of yum, chutney.

This was a great club. 

Club Sandwich at Fire on the Mountain

This is quite the club.

If you are looking for a great club sandwich and in the state of Washington near Mt St Helens then i encourage your to checkout this club!

Pulled Pork Sandwich

Fire on the Mountain Restaurant

Ok let me just say, this is what I like to see - lots of pork on my pulled pork Sandwiches.

This sandwich was hearty and flavorful.

The sauce was spot on and the pork could not have been more tender.

Huckleberry Lemonade

Nothing cools down summer like lemonade.

At Fire on the Mountain Restaurant they serve up some great lemonade and even feature a huckleberry lemonade -  amazing!

Cool, sweet and tart, totally refreshing

Citrus Harissa Salmon

Citrus Harissa Salmon This fresh and flavorful Finest creation features a juicy, pan-seared and lightly blackened 6-oz. salmon fillet with roasted red pepper harissa aioli, crisp tempura lemon wheels, citrus-marinated tomato and onion with fresh arugula on a toasted telera bun

You can find this at Red Robin

I found it to be better than I was expecting.  The salmon was moist and this could be a good alternative to a burger. I was pleased about the meat to bun ratio.

My drawbacks was the lemon slices would times be a bit over powering making some bits to acidic. Also, the sauce was a bit drippy making it a bit messy.

My rating 3/5

Abbys Fourmost

OK Pizza Lovers....

What could be better than an Abby's Pizza?

How about 4 Abby's Pizza all rolled in one!

Sound to good to be true?

I thought so to, especially at the value price of under $20 bucks.

My thoughts were " it must be small" or "they are going to be skimpy on the toppings" .

I am proud to report that neither one of my above concerns rang true!

Hands down this Fourmost pizza from Abby's is an all around winner in taste and value.

NOTE: this is a limited time offer so order yours today
