Cynthias

We ate at a great restaurant in Severna Park called Cynthias, probally one of the best in Anne Arundel county. Expensive, but worth every penny. http://cynthiassevernapark.com/

They actually closed summer 2009 :(


I had the grilled rockfish with risotto. It was delicious.


On the menu for $6 was a side of rings with 3 sauces. I had to order it, and as you can see it was a tower of deliciousness and crazy to say we did not finish it, because we were stuffed. They were so good.




Kristy had the lobster with curry, for about $33. It was a great dish.


Amuse bouche, they started us with a complimentary taste of a duck dumpling. Yum yum.






The pastry chef, who is amazing at what she does, made these (sorry I forgot the name,) biscuit type dinner rolls.


Finished the night with their housemade biscotti, best Ive ever had.

I have never made stuffed shells before, and gave it a shot. It is very fun to make, several steps.
Similar to making a lasagna. I used turkey sausage, tomatoes, ricotta, and topped it with mozzarella. Very yummy.

Breakfast for dinner


We love having breakfast for dinner; it is a true comfort food and fun to make.
We made a frittata ( I call it a baked omelet because after I add the eggs I place it in the oven) with turkey sausage, peppers, onion, and served with some fresh berries. Yum yum in my tum tum!














After baked.

I love spring!


Get ready to grow your veggies in your garden,
and grow your fresh garden vegetables.
We usually grow tomatoes, basil, tyme, rosemary, etc. I think we will grow some more stuff this year.
I usually have basil year round in the kitchen window where it receives much sunlight.
This was a picture of tomatoes I bought in the winter time. "Compari" tomatoes, very yummy. I drizzle some exra virgin olive oil, sprinkle kosher salt, and add some basil.
Enjoy!

Chicken Pot Pie




Hello, I am Kristy, Frank's wife and new blogger. I am no chef but last night I made a chicken pot pie with a recipe given to me by a good friend who raves about it! It is not low fat but it was delicious and simple to make. Let me know if you enjoy it!



You'll need:
1 lb. cooked chicken breasts

1 box of pie crusts (2 crusts)

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 cup of cheddar cheese

2 cups of vegetables (I used brocc and carrots)

2/3 cup of milk

salt and pepper to taste




Preheat oven to 400 degrees.




Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Unroll pie crust and lay into 9" pie plate. Place mixture on top.


Unroll 2nd pie crust and lay on top of mixture. Crimp edges of crust to seal off.



Cut a small hole in the center of pie or cut a few small slits on top. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.


It was plenty for us to enjoy for dinner the next night too! I think next time I will use some mushrooms! Let me know what you put in your pot pie!
