Hello Darlings! So, you overindulged a bit this weekend, maybe had a few too many margaritas, and woke up feeling dead to the world.

Cod en Papillote with Dandelion Greens
Hello darlings! Cod en Papillote with Dandelion Greens I love seafood. Shrimp, clams, crab, lobster; I’ll eat it all.

I love food in general, but Cajun cuisine has a special place on my palate, flavorful and chock full of seafood, I can’t get enough. In the United States, New Orleans is synonymous with Mardi Gras, Bourbon street, and beads; so what a better way to celebrate a day of eating than with my spin on a traditional New Orleans dish?
