It was one of those days where I was in the mood to grill some meat. Something easy and quick but flavorful. The easy part is the one bowl marinate and the minimum 25-30 min marinate time or overnight. This is an any night of the week meal and THE talk about dish at a…
Mejadra-Rice & Lentil Pilaf Topped off with Caramelized Onions
This traditional Lebanese comfort food is a combination of rice, lentils, and fried onions. I can not stress enough how good this dish is! It’s so flavorful and can also be made with ground lamb or ground beef. Today, I made it meatless but don’t under estimate this dish just because there is no meat. The caramelized…

Fettuccine Alfredo- Guilty Pleasure
Ah pasta! Another weakness of mine as I mentioned before. Fettuccine Alfredo is a classic. When I prepare this dish my kids go crazy! I try not to make this too often just because of the obvious! It’s too rich and definitely something you indulge in from time to time. Most people make Alfredo by…
Tilapia with Tahini sauce
Looking for something new to try? Then this might be the dish for you. This is a Lebanese dish called “Samak bi Tahini” (fish with tahini), that is sure to please anyone who’s a lover for fish and tahini. So simple to make and very delish! I topped it with fried onions & pine nuts….
