Salisbury House Chili Recipe
Salisbury House Chili (Copycat) There is a local restaurant chain in my city called Salisbury House, affectionately known by locals as Sals – its been around forever. Started during the days of vaudeville when a vaudevillian entertainer passing through town noted that there was no place to eat at 4 in the morning, and saw a business opportunity for a 24 hour diner. He opened one restaurant, basically a shack with a “little red roof” – the roof became the restaurant’s trademark – and, it grew from there. Almost a century later, Salisbury House continues to thrive, and most of them still have “the little red roof”. Great little diner, with really…

Best Chicken Picatta
First made this on March 25, 2014. Husband said its THE best Chicken Picatta he’s ever had / I’ve ever made. I couldn’t find, in a pinch, the Chicken Picatta recipes I’ve used before, so grabbed whatever I could find quickly online that looked decent, and this was it. I left out the wine and substituted additional chicken broth (since we’d rather DRINK the wine!); wasn’t sure how well that would work, but we honestly could not tell it was missing anything – it turned out incredible. I substituted coconut oil for the butter and olive oil (since we’re health conscious!). Also used coconut flour instead of regular flour (‘cuz…

Balsamic Glazed Basil Turkey Meatloaf
Awesome!!! Flavored with balsamic vinegar, garlic and fresh basil ~This is my FAVORITE balsamic glazed turkey meatloaf recipe. I love this one because it is so figure-friendly. The glaze is simple and delicious. It omits the ketchup which is so common for meatloaf glazes (including my other balsamic turkey meatloaf recipe). That gives it a milder flavor that compliments the meat nicely without being overpowering. This is important because the turkey loaf in this recipe really has a wonderful flavor and you don’t want to overpower it with the glaze. Also important, by not including ketchup you do away with unnecessary calories, not to mention additives which are not helpful…
