It’s my version of my lemon shrimp pasta. It’s good…real good. And it’s healthy – there’s no butter and you can be selective about the cheese. But, really, can you have pasta WITHOUT fresh grated cheese? Probably not…I didn’t think so.

Anyway, enjoy the video!

Whoever said healthy eating couldn’t be flavorful or fun? Keith decided to do a 60-day health challenge, and well, I’m in. I wanted to create delicious recipes that were within his guidelines. You’ll totally enjoy this take on a classic Mexican soup!

Enjoy The Video!!!

So, I’m back…I really haven’t been anywhere, but work – lol. I’ve been selling cupcakes & writing recipes like crazy. Hence, the slew of videos you’re about to get.

Enjoy this beef short rib recipe.

Oh – I’ve been here. LOL – I know how you guys get when I’m gone for a while.

Hey – by the way, you can always check me out on Twitter – I tweet often – @dariustwilliams – or you can catch me on Facebook – http://www.facebook.com/everydaycookin

Okay, so where have I been? Did you know I’m working to become a millionaire before I turn 30? Check out my other blog – http://www.millionbythirty.com. That’ll keep you abreast of all my business ventures. On the flip side – I’ve been cooking and taking photos – just haven’t had a chance to post them. You know how that goes, right?

So, here’s a mid-week/weeknight quickie! It’s chicken – but done my way – sauteed and then topped with a leek and artichoke ragout over some quite delicious smashed potatoes! This one was a winner – although – I’m not a fan of that marinating liquid they used for bottled artichokes. Nevertheless – here are the photos and the process – there’s no recipe cuz I pulled this one out of the thin air – lol – but it’s easy to follow…I think.

Saute of the leeks and bacon. So, bacon should totally be a seasoning instead of a protein – lol.

Such a perfect sear on those chicken breasts! Gotta make sure the internal temp is correct too.

A touch of butter in the end makes this all worth while.

Yes, more butter – but what’s potatoes without butter?

The finished plate!
