Nothing’s better than a hot bowl of soup, chock full of veggies and chunks of beefy goodness. This recipe was given to me by my youngest brother, who lives in a warm climate. His recipe calls for fresh veggies, which are available in his part of the country year round…no so in my neck of […]
When entertaining, it’s important to me that everyone present partakes in a tasty dessert. Having several friends that follow gluten free diets, I was bound and determined to find a dessert that was moist, tasty and had a nice texture. After trying several recipes (some were really gross), I came across this gem. It comes […]
When I was a little girl, we got to choose what we wanted for dinner on our birthday. My choice was either spaghetti or stuffed green peppers. Because there were 12 people in my family, Mom would make 2 trays of these. She would line up the peppers along the sides of the pan, would […]
Who doesn’t love a scrumptious dinner made in less than an hour? Sweet potatoes and chunks of chicken, lightly seasoned and roasted to perfection. But that’s not all…it’s sprinkled with cheese for a taste that’s divine. Who would have known a few simple ingredients tossed together could result in a dish fit for a Queen!
Love, love, love cooking shows. One day while changing channels, I saw Rachel Ray on the screen. On that particular day, Rachel was sharing some 30 minute meals…my kinda stuff.

What would we do without Betty Crocker? I came across this recipe while searching for dishes I could use pork shoulder in. Although her recipe called for country ribs, I thought I’d try it with the shoulder being its a tasty cut of meat and is quite economical. You can add snow peas or Edameme […]
During Lent, my family does not eat meat on Fridays. Having a “meat and potatoes” husband, I found it difficult to find meatless dinner ideas that would keep him happy. In my search, I came across many different recipes for sweet potato stew, so I took a few ingredients from various recipes and combined them […]
I love dishes made with pork shoulder/butt because it is always so tender and juicy. While watching a cooking show, Chef Jeff Mauro introduced this dish. Since it was made with my favorite cut of meat, I decided to give it a try. Of course I added an ingredient or two to suit my taste […]
These light and fluffy biscuits are quick and easy to make and are very tasty. We love to have them in the morning, covered with sausage gravy or at dinnertime with stew or a nice bowl of soup.
