Everyone loves cake. Even the so-called Shirtless Chef loves cake. Any time I am in a Sam’s Club, I have to avert my eyes when passing the bakery to avoid looking directly at the strawberry cream cake. It’s for the safety of both myself and my fellow shoppers. Fortunately, I know too much about the […]

Shirtless Chef Recipe – Not to beat a dead chicken but… here’s Smoky Chicken Salad
Now that the hotter months are approaching, cooler meals start to show up more on the menu. Chicken Salad is a good summer option.

Shirtless Chef: That really is a spicy meatball

Shirtless Chef explains Beef Stroganoff – and tiny dormant desert shrimp?
Here’s another true confession from my dark days of cooking past. I thought the only way to make any dish was to buy a box kit. You know, Hamburger Helper, taco kits, lasagna kits, you name it. If we didn’t have a box for it with prepackaged ingredients full of highly questionable preservatives and lab […]
Shirtless Chef: The queso in this Mexican Casserole won’t make you queazo
The recipe this week caused a lot of strife in our house back in the day. Mexican casserole… if you like seasoned meat, cheese, salsa, and crunchy chips, it would just make sense that you’d like Mexican casserole. Any sane, rational person would find no reasonable argument on that point, right? I’m betting that argument […]
