Hibachi Chicken & Shrimp
Many of my blog posts, you will find, will be retroactive attempts to document previous entrees I've cooked before I started blogging. I wish I had the gumption to cook every night, but that's just not realistic. I mostly cook big meals and munch on leftovers for as long as I can. I'm a firm believer in leftovers, plus it keeps me from having to spend money on lunch and dinner everyday... which gets expensive, trust me!
So this Hibachi Chicken & Shrimp recipe is yet another modified version of what I found online. The original recipe can be found

Sloppy Lasagna
While sitting at home one afternoon watching the Food Network (one of my favorite TV shows btw) I saw Rachel Ray cooking up what looked to be such an easy recipe for lasagna. I decided then and there that I wanted lasagna for dinner that night! The picture to the right is the final product, and the picture below is a good cheap vino blanc that I bought at Wal-Mart that complements the dish quite nicely. I had to call my mom to tell her how great this turned out. It felt like a sin to eat it because it was soooo good!!
There's actually a funny story that goes along with this Sauvignon Blanc... So, when a recipe calls for wine, I usually leave it out. One. Because I don't drink wine. & Two. It can be expensive. This time I decided to be fancy and include the wine. I got home, started cooking up the sauce, and when it was time to add the wine, I picked up the bottle and started to screw off the top. SIKE, this bottle had a cork and I didn't think to get a bottle opener. Ugh... I tried a knife, a screw.. nothing worked! I took my pot off the stove, grabbed my keys, jetted off
