When I travel, of course I love to see the sights, especially when it’s something like the Pyramids, the Colosseum or the Eiffel Tower. The times that are most memorable to me, though, are those experiences I have with the local people. And one thing you can count on, especially when traveling outside of the…

Bourbon Street Glazed Carrots
It’s Fat Tuesday in TinyKitchenland and we’re making Bourbon Street Glazed Carrots! Mardi Gras has begun! The funny thing is that for the longest time I didn’t realize that Mardi Gras is actually French for…you guessed it…Fat Tuesday. (Hey, we’re a multi-faceted operation here at Tiny Kitchen Big Taste…offering the best in great food and…
Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Dear Tiny Kitchen Viewer, Happy Valentine’s Day! Wait…what…it’s Valentine’s Day?!? Don’t freak out yet! At the time of this post, there is officially one week and one day to go…but hopefully, this blog will get you in the planning phase to help make Valentine’s Day a special day for your special someone. You can breathe…
Buffalo Chicken Wings
I am the luckiest uncle in the World because I have the coolest niece and nephew in the World. Now, I don’t want to make this a competition, but they are the coolest. 😉 Every time I head to Atlanta, I get to hang out with them and that makes this Uncle Bear (as I’m…
Candied Pecans
When I say Candied Pecans, the first thing that pops into my mind is “THEY’RE SO ADDICTIVE!” I promise myself that I’ll only have one or two…or maybe three. Another three won’t hurt. OK, one more…but that’s it. You get the gist. These things are so tasty and good that sometimes it’s hard to control…
Indoor BBQ Chicken Grill
I have been traveling a bit this winter and my adventures have taken me to places where the temperature has dropped to almost single digits. One word: Brrrrrr. Truth be told, though, I love stepping outside the comforts of home and the not-so-chilly 72°F weather we have here in LA in December and January (and…
Homemade BBQ Sauce
No BBQ Sauce. No Problem! You can make your own. Here’s my dad’s basic BBQ Sauce that great on the Tiny Kitchen Big Taste BBQ Chicken Pizza or Tiny Kitchen Big Taste’s Indoor BBQ Chicken Grill. Wait, you say, Tiny Kitchen doesn’t have a BBQ Chicken recipe…hmmmm!?! Maybe there are great things to come. Hint: check…
Pan-Seared Scallops over Pasta in a Lemon-White Wine Sauce
Seared Scallops. Mmmmm….let me just drift off for a bit thinking about Seared Scallops for a moment. I love them so much that they undoubtedly rank on the top of my favorite foods list, in a constant battle for the top spot with Chilean Seabass, steamed Crab legs and that incredible bowl of Mussels I…
Mom’s Vegetable Soup
New Year! New You! Yes, it is one of those cheesy clichés that is associated with every diet commercial and gym membership advertisement out there….so why not a food blog and YouTube Channel. (Haha…literally, as I am writing this, I just got a notification on my phone from the store Target, saying: New year, new…
Baked Brie
I have always loved cheese. Admittedly, as a kid, I probably liked it too much. I remember going to Pizza Hut and I would always get a salad from the salad bar. How does that relate to cheese, you ask? Well, my Pizza Hut salad consisted of three small leaves of iceberg lettuce, alfalfa sprouts,…
Ina Garten’s Perfect Roast Chicken
Sometimes, certain dishes seem intimidating to make. I think roasted chicken is one of those things. If you’ve never cooked a whole chicken before, you just don’t know where to begin. How do I season it? How long do I cook it? What do I do with the bird when I take it out of…
Bruschetta
Tomatoes! Yum! At least that’s how most everyone sees it. I guess I am not most everyone. I know, saying that I don’t like the main ingredient in one of my recipes is not the greatest sales pitch, but I’d rather be honest with you than make you think that I think raw tomatoes are…
