Bocata de atún #CooktheBooks

This traditional Spanish Bocadillo (Sandwich) is stuffed with canned tuna, roasted piquillo peppers, hard-boiled egg, olives, and tomatoes with a schmear of mayonnaise, all wrapped up in parchment to keep it together as you eat.

I was inspired to make this sandwich after reading Call of the Camino by Suzanne Redfearn.  I was inspired to use tuna as I made this sandwich on a Lenten Fish Friday...

Turkey and Swiss on Rye, A Book Review and The Weekly Menu

When I was visiting my friend, Linda, in Tucson earlier this month, she suggested a fun series, The Althea Rose Mysteries, that she has been reading since the first one came out in 2015.  

I ordered up the first of the series as an audiobook on my library app and have been listening to it during my daily walks.

Hawaiian Shredded Chicken and the Weekly Menu

I had 2 leftover chicken breasts and 6 hungry mouths to feed.  This delicious crockpot meal provided enough to feed all of us.  

This chicken is slow-cooked in a sweet and tangy sauce until it is fall-apart tender.  It makes delicious sandwiches, add a side salad or some chips, and dinner is served.

Grilled Chicken Panini, a Book Review and the Weekly Menu

I just finished reading A Time for Mercy by John Grisham.  This novel has all the same characters that we came to love in A Time to Kill.  It starts off with a family being terrorized by an alcoholic cop who is a hero in town but has a very dark side when he gets on the wrong side of a beer bottle.  

Breakfast Quesadilla #SundayFunday

A quick and easy breakfast sandwich with a Mexican Flair.  Ham and cheese flavored with salsa and melted onto a grilled quesadilla.  You can just grab it and run out the door but I like sour cream with mine.
