Believing in family dinners since 1991
Hi! I'm Leora. I am married to a fire captain (who is also the man of my dreams!), a mom to five grown kids, and a nana to five darling grandkids! I firmly believe in the importance of putting distractions away and sitting down together for family dinner, and doing so has been a tradition in our home ever since my husband and I got married 30 years ago. In fact, my children still come home often for family dinners, even though most are moved out of the house. My goal is to provide you with delicious recipes that you can share with your loved ones around the table. So, join my family for dinner, and pass your plates!
Just adding another super easy dish for your weeknight meals… You’re welcome! Sheet pan dinners are all the rage right now because they only require one pan for cooking/baking, and they’re perfect for those busy nights. This dish has a little kick to it, but not too much heat.

Trying to eat healthier isn’t always easy, but these cauliflower bites sure make it easier! You’ll love these served on top of rice (pictured above — our personal fave), on their own, or even inside a taco as a substitute for meat. It’s up to you! How great is that? Enjoy!
These black beans are the perfect side dish for your Taco Tuesday, or you can use them inside your tacos. Totally up to you!
These pork tacos are so easy and absolutely exploding with flavor! Get ready for smoky, sweet, tangy, slightly spicy, fresh….. you name it! All in one bite. Tender pork, red onion, fresh pico, salty cotija cheese, and jalapenos all nestled inside a warm corn tortilla. You can’t go wrong! I dare you to bring these …
My family LOVES hot, cheesy dips, especially when it’s cold and snowy outside. This is spinach dip with the volume turned up! I came up with this for Super Bowl Sunday, and my family devoured it. It’s easy and delicious. Grab some tortilla chips and enjoy!
