Hungry and getting ready to leave for vacation in a matter of hours, I check the fridge in an effort to get something quick and tasty to eat. Thankfully, I had some pita bread, humus and various condiments – all the makings of a delicious grilled pita panini.

I opened my fridge this morning only to find I had no eggs.  I wanted to get something in my belly to hold me over before a large lunch.  So, I decided to toss some random things together to make a quick meal.  Here is what I came up with.

Continuing on with our chili theme, Elisabeth and I decided to fix some chili dogs for dinner. Quick and easy, this is a fantastic weekday recipe.

All you need is some reheated chili, shredded cheese, hot dogs and some good buns and you are set. We were definitely in a goofy mood for this one. Must have been the excitement for the dogs.

Be sure to check out our chili episode to see us make the chili used in this episode here.

After much delay and anticipation, the chili recipe has surfaced. This is a recipe we obtained online about a year ago and have been tweaking ever since.  This time around we have it just about perfect for our taste preference and we are pleased this is the one we get to share with all of you.  Since chili is such an incredibly flexible recipe, feel free to experiment and change things up.

Also, we would love to hear from you if you do make some changes so we can try them out as well.  Send us an e-mail at recipes@cuisinemadequick.com or hit us up on twitter at cphadley, ebear6 or cuisinemq.  We would love to do a follow-up episode making your recipe.

In an effort to make at least one healthy dish, we take on some chicken tacos with a surprising result. In only about 15 to 20 minutes, we were rewarded with some very tasty tacos that look good and are good for you. This is definitely a recipe to give a try for those days when you don’t want a heavy meal but you want a tasty treat.

In a more relaxed Cuisine Made Quick, Elisabeth and I decided to make some burgers on the grill during one of the many warm evenings we have had lately. There isn’t much to learn here but we had fun and thought we would share.

It’s Thursday night in the middle of a very busy work week and I look at the clock. The time is after 9 PM and I realize I have not eaten dinner. This seems to be a regular occurrence for me lately and I soon realized groceries were in short supply. I was going to eat some cereal but then came to the realization I didn’t have any milk. What I did have was corn tortillas, eggs, cheese and salsa.

Not wanting to make the full egg tortilla casserole again, I decided to make up some quick breakfast tacos given they only take about 10 minutes to make. These are even better when you have more fresh ingredients available for topping. I was a bit limited.

After much delay and a day outside of being part of National Pancake Week, Elisabeth and I finally got around to making some fresh blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes. Inspired by National Pancake Week, we thought now would be a good time to break away from the Bisquick and bust out the 1970s Joy of Cooking. To quote Elisabeth, “The results – magic.”

Take tortillas, eggs, salsa and cheese and before I even see a recipe, I know I’m in for a treat. Today’s dish is a perfect example of this wonderful combination of tasty ingredients. Some may argue this is not really a casserole but I tend to think of a casserole as a meal that ends up in one dish and that can be eaten directly from the pot or pan without the need for a side dish. Under my personal definition, this dish definitely fits the bill.

In what may be the easiest recipe (besides the Pizza Rolls) yet on Cuisine Made Quick, I fly solo in fixing one of my favorite Mexican breakfast feasts. In about fifteen minutes you can have yourself a hearty and spicy breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Elisabeth was home visiting family during the taping of this episode but she is not without appearance. The episode before this was supposed to be a recipe for a prosciutto and melon burger with sweet potato fries. Needless to say, things did not go as planned for that recipe. Some of the highlights of that failure can be seen in this episode.

As always, if you have a favorite recipe you would like to see us attempt, or if you have video preparing your favorite dish, please leave a comment or send an e-mail to recipes@cuisinemadequick.com.

I can’t get enough of Gregory Ng’s (the Frozen Food Master) Freezer Burns video podcast.  So when I found myself looking for a snack at 10 o’clock at night, I immediately went for the old standby – pizza rolls.

Greg did a “Fro-Down” of Pizza Rolls vs Bagel Bites back in January and I thought I would bring something new to the table.  Instead of cooking in the microwave or oven, I dropped the tasty morsels into cooking oil.  The results – delicious!
