Late Night Dinner for 2

Quick and Easy Chicken dinner for 2 


I have a strong passion for cooking so it does not matter what time of the day it is when i decide that it's time to make a meal. I made this delisious dish  last night around 10pm.  Pan seared chicken with mashed potatoes, and fresh mixed vegetables! This dish didn't take long to make and it only cost me about $5.00 for this entire meal.

Recipe will be posted soon!

Gotta love Breakfast!



Breakfast is the most important meal of the day so I usually try to make a good breakfast at least three times a week. I love potatoes so I make a lot homefies. I love making homefries because I get the chance to be creative every time. 


No breakfast is complete with out bacon and eggs. I like pork bacon but turkey and beef bacon is just as good when cooked the right way. 


For more information on this breakfast leave a comment or email me @ Cravetastyspot@gmail.com

Sauteed Potatoes with spinach and squash


Sauteed Potatoes with spinach and squash 




  • 4 Medium size russet potatoes
  • 1 pound of fresh spinach 
  • 1 medium sized squash
  • 1 small yellow onion
  • 2 cloves of fresh garlic
  • 1/2 packet of accent seasoning salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of adobo seasoning salt
  • 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • 1/2 cup of chicken broth 
  • 1/2 cup of vegetable broth 

Directions
In a medium sized pot place 4 potatoes for 15 minutes until potatoes are partially cooked. Do not overcook the potatoes because it is important to keep the shape of the potato when slicing and adding the potato to the other vegetables.Next remove potatoes from water and let set aside until the potatoes are cool enough for slicing. 

In a large saucepan  add the two tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil along with the the onion and fresh garlic. Saute the garlic and onions until translucent. Once the onions and garlic have cooked,add potatoes, spinach, and squash. Add broth and the seasonings and mix gently to avoid breaking vegetables.
Saute until potatoes and squash are fully cooked.

 Serve and enjoy. Yield: serves 4

Seasonings and butter can be adjusted to taste. This recipe works for my family but it can easily be made with less seasoning and vegan butter to appeal to different pallets.
