Some of the best memories you’ll make are of doing very simple things with each other.  Gabby and I decided to make some lemonade this morning with our left-over lemons.  She was the squeezer and I was the cutter.  Pretty darn tasty too!

Ingredients:

8 Lemons
2 Limes
1 Cup Sugar or Sweetener
4 Cups of Ice
Water

Cut and squeeze the juice of 7 lemons and 1 lime. Strain to remove pulp. Slice the remaining lemon and lime. Add to pitcher the juice, the slices, the sugar, then the water to taste.  Top with ice and serve.  Delicious!

Pan Roasted Chicken Pita with French Onion Soup

Cook Time: 1:15

Degree of Difficulty: 7

Tip: Cook the soup before hand for a quick, half-hour meal.

Pan Roasting meats is great technique to lock in flavor and moisture in ordinarily dry meats.  This is the “Wow” factor that makes your food stand out.  You know the type of bite I’m talking about.  When you slice into your steak or chicken and the juices just run out.  Not blood, but juices.  Pan Roasting your meats is fantastic and surprisingly easy way to add flavor, save time, and create a good sauce to accompany your meat.  So how do you do it?
