I was thumbing through an old church cookbook, looking for something different, when I came across a recipe for ham loaf. It had been many, many years since I had enjoyed a slice of ham loaf and wondered if I would still like it. Beings I had some leftover ham, I figured I’d give it […]

When I was a youngster, we always had some sort of roast on Sundays. One of my very favorites was pot roast, served with mashed taters smothered in gravy along with a veggie. I don’t recall whether or not my Mom used this particular recipe, but it’s been one of my family’s favorites since the […]
While searching for a few new Polish recipes, I came across this gem and since I love gizzards, I decided to try it out. The original recipe listed allspice seeds, but since I only had ground allspice, I used that instead. I also added a chicken bouillon cube to add a dab more chicken flavor. […]
