Sandwiches
Sandwiches are such a classic lunchtime treat – none more iconic than grilled cheese. For a modern twist on the classic grilled cheese recipe, I leveled up with a grilled Cantalet, fig slather and sliced pear on Laughing Tree sourdough. Yum! And speaking of classics, Hot Brown was a family favorite for special lunches. I was so happy when Bobby Flay served it at his Bar Americain, now sadly shuttered. Guess we will have to stick with this tried-and-true recipe and DIY it.
This south of the border chipotle fig glazed chicken thigh makes an excellent fajita filler. For burgers, I have always been a fan of this Turkey Burger, made extra juicy with a mix-in of drained salsa. Consider having a burger Pot Lucky and grilling a variety of sliders, letting the guests bring the toppings. Such a fun gathering!
Pot Lucky: Food on a Stick Edition
I probably say this every Pot Lucky - but the stick party was the best ever. Food on a stick! Skewered anything! Skewered everything! Kicked up Shish Kabobs......Swish Kabobs! It was the perfect storm of a late summer night with stunning weather, a beautiful pool...

Chipotle Fig Glazed Chicken & Fajita Fiesta – Olé!
If it’s summer, it’s grilling time and what better way to get a little entertaining help than a Pot Lucky. After the success of last year’s Slider Grill-a-thon, I picked Fajita Fiesta for a theme. I also had a brand new jar of Balsamic Pepper Fig Spread land...
Feeling Pot Lucky: Build Your Own Burger
I have seriously gone down the Pot Lucky rabbit hole, or as I have recently taken to calling it – the Curated Pot Luck. It was only a matter of time after sausage making, soup swapping, and pizza topping, that I would dive head first into a burger blast. No doubt...
Hot Brown and Jelly Beans: Doing Easter New York style
“In your Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it…………you’ll be the grandest fella in the Easter Parade.” Thank you Irving Berlin. I couldn’t have said it better. The New York City Easter parade, an annual event dating back to the late 1800s, has been a part of my...
