- Honey Cinnamon Fried Bananas
These delicious and easy fried bananas taste great by themselves, but are also an easy way to dress up ice cream, pound cake, pancakes or any other dessert that needs a little elevation. They come together in a jiffy and you don't have to wait for the bananas to be overly ripe, like banana bread.

4 min - Italian Chicken Panini
I admit to not really enjoying cold sandwiches, but give me a hot, crusty, cheesy gooey Italian Chicken Panini any day of the week! This one is one of my favs- use leftover, rotisserie, breaded chicken cutlets or even chicken nuggets!
Tools Used (affiliate links):
- Panini Press
If this mouthwatering sandwich is not enough for you, I usually like to pair mine with a green salad with my homemade creamy Italian dressing.
Sandwiches also naturally pair with soups like our homemade tomato bisque , 15 bean soup or copycat panera broccoli cheddar soup. Or an easy pasta side like our famous pastina recipe or easy parmesan linguine recipe.Make sure to subscribe to Chef's Recipe Spotlight!

4 min - Parmesan Crusted Tilapia
This easy recipe for parmesan crusted tilapia takes a fairly bland fish and makes it extraordinary. Top it with a garlic butter sauce, pesto aioli or just fresh lemon wedges.
For starches, either potatoes or rice are good picks, but this fish also tastes great on a bed of pasta with alfredo sauce. Try my Almond Rice Pilaf or Balsamic Roasted Veggies too. Also go for green with cheesy baked kale, roast broccolini or even a nice leafy salad with ranch dressing.

4 min - Old Fashioned Cabbage Casserole
This is one of those mid-1950's era recipes- the one that uses simple and budget friendly ingredients. The type that glorified a can of cream-of-something-soup. I usually don't use any of these soups, but in this case, it is necessary. I have, however, added a few other ingredients to elevate this recipe a bit- cheddar, bacon, onions and garlic. It's made commonly around St. Patrick's Day because, well, cabbage, but it can be prepared year-round and just omit the bacon for a vegetarian dish that is fit for a main entree. We hope you enjoy this Cabbage Casserole Recipe!
