Make a Double Batch of This Polish Staple! There’s something about putting in the effort to make a few dozen Pierogies. All the filling prep aside, the mixing, rolling, stuffing, and cutting make some folks wonder why any sane person would bother with homemade Pierogi. It might be a lot of work, but once you’ve […]

Pulled Pork
Tender, juicy pork, rubbed in spices and garlic, simmered in root beer in the slow cooker, shredded and slathered in a fantastic BBQ sauce and served on a bun.
Chocolate Lasagna Dessert
Shortly before retiring, we had a pot luck luncheon where everyone brings a dish to share. My friend & co-worker Betty R., brought this creamy, luscious dessert made with Oreo cookies . Of course I had to try it, cause who doesn’t love Oreo’s. Needless to say, it was delicious and best of all, easy […]
Jambalaya
I found this cajun jambalaya recipe on the internet a few years ago and my family really loves it. I believe it is one of Chef Emeril’s creations. It’s spicy, flavorful and is filled with sausage, chicken and shrimp!
Mushroom Tarts
I love little bite size appetizers and this is one of my favorites. Mushrooms sauteed in a creamy sauce, nestled in crust, topped with breadcrumbs and broiled to perfection.
Gourmet Roulade (Schlemmeriolle)
This savory dish is sure to please the entire family. The meat is tender, moist and very flavorful. The gravy is just heavenly.

Kale, Quinoa & Avocado Salad
A friend and co-worker of mine brought this delicious salad to work for our pot-luck luncheon. The combination of quinoa ,kale and corn in itself is delish, but adding pecans, beans and creamy avocado with a refreshingly light dressing, transforms it into a spectacular dish. Everyone , including myself, asked for the recipe. So, here […]
Zucchini Pancakes
Years ago I had a big garden which yielded an enormous crop of zucchini. Even after sharing with friends and neighbors, I still had tons, so I started my search for zucchini recipes. Luckily, I found this gem. I didn’t think my family would care for it as they are “meat and potato” folks, but […]
