We have this awesome Thai restaurant right in our neighborhood called Taste of Thai. It’s somewhat of a hole in the wall with seemingly traditional Thai artwork hanging on the dark maroon walls. When it comes to ethnic foods, this is my favorite kind of place. It’s that kind of place that [...]
While I know eating healthy is important, I find it can sometimes be difficult to find good-for-you meals that have actual flavor and also keep you full for more than an hour. In the Big Flavors house, a healthy meal will always contain some type of protein. It’s hard to get Mr. Big Flavors to [...]
Tis the season for a big-ol’ hearty bowl of chili. But for some reason, I’m just not a huge fan of the traditional tomato-based, ground beef and big red kidney bean kind of chili. Maybe it’s because I’ve never found a beefy chili recipe that I’ve really enjoyed. Or maybe it’s because I still have [...]
I can’t believe 2013 is just a few hours away! Where did 2012 go? What are you looking forward to in the new year? What resolutions are you’re committing to or what goals you’re trying to meet? Sadly, I’ve never been any good at resolutions. So, I’m making goals instead. First on the list is growing this blog [...]
This might have been one of the longest weeks, ever. Lowlights include trying to hang a ceiling light fan for four hours, getting 4 hours of sleep each night, and screaming at the Home Depot store manager over why I should get my countertops for free because it’s not my fault that they don’t have clear [...]
Have I mentioned that life in the Big Flavors house is absolutely craaaazy these days?

Hey, it can’t always been homemade three course meals and picture perfect desserts, although that would definitely [...]
This Sunday, it’s a Buffalonian style Super’ Snackin’ Sunday. We’re calling these “Sully Style” because chicken wings were the first thing that Mr. Big Flavors (known by his friends as Sully) ever cooked. In a way, chicken wings were the start to Mr. BF’s obsession with eating and cooking. When you live in Buffalo, [...]
Well, this may be the first year that I have actually done Halloween-themed food research. Between helping my sister locate the perfect treat for her work’s “spoooky cooookie” contest and concocting my own treat to bring along a newly instituted Recipe Exchange party, I’ve done plenty of googling and pinterest-ing of Halloween [...]
Almost everyone has their family favorite version of enchiladas. Some are made with chicken, some with beef. Others are completely vegetarian. We all have our preferences on whether enchilada sauce should be red or green. The Big Flavors are definitely fans of the latter. Mexican night in our house means whipping up [...]
Are you lucky enough to have one of those semi-authentic Mexican restaurants near you? The one with a menu that’s sixteen pages long, but all of the main dishes pretty much sound exactly the same? Dinner options are always some form of meat and beans, stuffed with tons of cheese into a hard or [...]
