Dinner at Christina's: Tuna Quinoa Cakes
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2012/07/tuna-quinoa-cakes.html
Thursday, July 12, 2012. As mentioned in my previous post, I made these the same time I made the Sweet Potato Black Bean Burgers. Both contain sweet potatoes and quinoa, so it was easy to prep and make them together. It was nice to only have to heat up the oven once in this summer heat, too! The original recipe and photos can be found here. My alterations are below:. 1 medium sweet potato, cooked and mashed. 2 cans tuna, drained (I use white albacore in water). 3/4 cup quinoa, pre-cooked. We noticed that...

Dinner at Christina's: December 2011
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 27, 2011. Right after the wedding my parents left for Italy. Johnny and I came back to North Carolina with my brother and his girlfriend, Claire. We had a really low-key Christmas with just my God daughter and her family, us, and my brother. I loved the small Christmas. It was really fun company and just enough food to feed us, without going overboard with a gazillion sides and stress. Cooked Christmas dinner, so no recipes, just sharing the day in photos! Awesome, crispy skin. And new ...

Dinner at Christina's: November 2011
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 14, 2011. Pineapple Upside Down Cake. This sort of falls under the "semi-home made" category, but it was my first ever Pineapple Upside Down Cake and we all enjoyed it, so it's worth sharing. We had some family friends and my parents over for dinner. I've known Jack and Sylvia pretty much my whole life. They live out in western NC now, but occasionally come to the Outer Banks to visit. It stuck to the pan and I had to patch it back together! 1/2 cup brown sugar. Combine the cake mix, pud...

Dinner at Christina's: February 2013
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 23, 2013. I probably should have put up a post like this months ago, whoops! Sorry to everybody who has found me on Facebook, sent me emails, or left comments checking in on me! I am ok. I'm still alive. I still cook. I just don't share it. I'm not cooking the same as I once was. I lost about 16 pounds over the summer/fall of 2012 and want to keep that weight off. I cook boring, healthier foods. I repeat the same meals. A lot. My current blogging project is over at A Year of Sunsets.

Dinner at Christina's: Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2012/06/jalapeno-popper-grilled-cheese.html
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese. I have to thank the lovely Kristina. For this genius idea of her's! Johnny and I love jalapeno poppers, stuffed jalapenos, or whatever you choose to call them. They go by many names, but the premise is the same: a seeded jalapeno, stuffed with ooey gooey cheese. This is them- but in sandwich form. Begin by spreading a couple Tablespoons of cream cheese on bread. Add shredded cheese to the other side. This is genius. GENIUS. I want one right now.

Dinner at Christina's: April 2012
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2012. One of the first wedding gifts we received was from Johnny's good friend, Scott and his family. They generously got us the Keurig coffee maker from our registry, and we could not be more thrilled. We might. Have even broken a Miss Manner's rule and set this bad boy up and started using him before the big day! Johnny and I both like coffee, but we're not huge drinkers. We don't need it to start our day, or every. Do any of you have a Keurig machine? Tuesday, April 24, 2012. On my p...

Dinner at Christina's: Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme
http://www.dinneratchristinas.com/2012/06/homemade-crunchwrap-supreme.html
Sunday, June 10, 2012. A few weeks ago, and they finally made it into my meal plan this week! I was thinking these would be so much healthier. Than their Taco Bell counterpart, but honestly, they aren't. There isn't that much you can do to improve the recipe when you're using a lot of tortillas - they're just really caloric. 1 pound lean ground beef, drained. 1 package taco seasoning. 6 burrito sized flour tortillas. 3 taco sized flour tortillas. 1 cup shredded cheese of choice. 1/2 cup sour cream. And B...
