Peanut Butter Mashed Potatoes
Originally uploaded by lyricalmezzo
Trust me; this tastes much better than it sounds. This admission may get me into trouble, but I am a fan of Bravo’s Top Chef. This season the chefs were asked to run a steak house and prepare special dishes. One of the contestants, Lisa, made peanut butter mashed [...]

Mimi and I completed our Country Bob cook-off. I’ll let her blog about her meal, but will let you know hers is on the right – the pork kabobs. I chose to cook chicken. We also chose very different applications of the sauce and again [...]
