The first time I ever had one of these sandwiches was in the cafeteria at work. It was actually a Panini sandwich. I wasn’t sure I was going to like it, but I’m open to new dishes. Much to my surprise it was delicious. I recreated the sandwich and prepare it like a grilled cheese […]
A few years ago, I was visiting my niece Kendra in Colorado, and she prepared this wonderful dish for us. She didn’t have any plain brandy on hand, so she used Pineapple brandy and it was fabulous. I have made this several times for my family, using regular brandy, and they love it. Now that […]
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 […]
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.
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!
This savory dish is sure to please the entire family. The meat is tender, moist and very flavorful. The gravy is just heavenly.

I always struggled with what to do with leftover turkey. You can only eat so many sandwiches and bowls of soup. Several years ago my friend Norma shared this recipe with me. Its creamy, cheesy and so flavorful. You prepare it the night before, so it’s convenient as well.
One day while watching cooking shows, Giada, a spunky little Italian chef, made a pot of chicken chili. It sounded different, so I thought I’d give it a try. I went to 3 different store and not one had ground chicken, so I settled for ground turkey instead. My family loved it, so turkey chili […]
