Pork Tenderloin
Pork Tenderloin is one of my favorite meats to cook. In part because it is so, so easy to make. The key to great pork tenderloin, and lots of other foods cooked on the stove top, is a cold pan. That's right, you do not need to heat up a pan before you put food in it!
gumbo
One of my favorite Mardi Gras traditions is gumbo. This thick stew made with chicken, shrimp, and sausage is the perfect way to celebrate.
