Although it’s been over 50 years since I stood in the kitchen helping my mother bake these cookies, I remember like it was yesterday, Mom putting on her yellow flowered apron, gathering all the ingredients and going to town. This recipe is one she used to make at Christmastime. She would fill these buttery, tender, […]

Tangy Meatloaf
Nothing’s better than a meatloaf sandwich…problem is, there’s never any leftovers when I make this meatloaf. It has just the right seasonings and the sweet and tangy topping pushes it over the edge. Goes great with a baked potato!
Tandoori Chicken
Marinated in yogurt and spices, this dish is juicy and bursting with flavor. Serve it with a side of rice or Naan bread.
Taco Seasoning
One day I was just beginning to start making tacos for dinner when I realized I used my last package of taco seasoning and I didn’t care to venture out in the snow. So, off to the internet I went and came across this recipe. I wasn’t sure how my tacos would turn out that […]
Taco Pie
Years ago I found this recipe on the box of Bisquick. This pie is quick and easy to prepare and it tastes good too. Even the “picky” kid liked it. Sometimes I change it up a bit by adding an extra ingredient, such as a handful of frozen kernel corn or a sweet red pepper.
Taffy Apple Salad
Taffy apple salad is packed with flavor, has just the right amount of crunch and is super delicious. You’ll be tempted to eat the whole bowl! Thanks to my sister Kathy for sharing this recipe with me!
Sweet Potato Delight
My mother-in-law went to Oregon and while driving through Nebraska, she picked up a cook book for me. I tried many of the recipes…and this one was my favorite. It’s a “must have” on every major holiday.
Chana Masala (Savory Indian Garbanzo Beans)
My old friend Sudesh shared this recipe with me almost 50 years ago. It’s a savory mix of chick peas, tomatoes, garlic, onions and spices…lots of spices, simmered to perfection. The chick peas are served with Roti or Naan bread. I cook the chick peas in a pressure cooker, but the old stove top method […]
Stuffed Zucchini
Years ago I was at a friends house and her neighbor brought over some zucchini, fresh from his garden. Jeanne was so excited because she couldn’t decide what to make for dinner that evening with the ground beef she had defrosted. She immediately started making the meat sauce and the aroma was tantalizing. When the […]
Stuffed French Bread
French bread, stuffed with a cream cheese filling…Oo La La. I have made this recipe numerous times and it’s always a “hit” at the parties.
