For the last few weeks I have been terribly busy. When life starts to pile up on me, and lately that happens a lot, I crave easy meals that offer a lot of comfort. Comfort, for me, comes in the form of cheesy pasta with a Tex-Mex kick. I know I have mentioned before my [...]

I don’t know about you but after a long day at work, or a busy day out and about, the last thing I want is dinner that takes any kind of effort to prepare. This is about as easy as they come. That is why I love, and adore, chicken legs! They make dinner so easy. [...]
