Pickled Eggs

This is a great recipe for this time of year as many of you will have an overload of hard boiled eggs around the house. Truth is – this is a great recipe anytime! I can not keep enough of these around the house. I’ll make a half a dozen and the next day, they’re […]

Bittman’s Seasoned Popcorn

I’m going to admit this right now. I have a crush on Mark Bittman. Okay, it’s out there. I fessed up to my Hubby this weekend so he wouldn’t get jealous. This crush has been going on for a while now but I just never admitted publicly. Too late now, huh? Why the crush? First of […]

Spaghetti Pie

Woot! It’s grandson sleepover night! Time for hugs, giggles, play… and holding onto every precious moment. When I was a young mother, I was too busy to hold onto every precious moment. Looking back now, I wish I could stop time and giggle more, hug more and play more… I couldn’t, I was a single […]

Sweet and Sour Brisket

I have been so good this January! I’ve been drinking green smoothies, upped my daily veggie count, allowing one day for vegetarian only meals and exercising. But sometimes you just need a big hunk of meat! I’m about to share with you my most requested recipe. I make it every time we have a crowd […]

Woofies

Dog gone it! My life has gone to the dogs as of late. It all started with a good intention of buying my dogs “organic” treats. I’m very picky of what I feed my dogs… No table scraps… Holistic food…. Veggies for snacks…they love fresh green beans, red peppers, carrots and cabbage! I got reeled […]

Oven Roasted Tomatoes

I have a delightfully simple recipe for you today. It takes tomatoes to a whole new taste level. Slow roasted oven tomatoes. I made them this weekend for my cooking demonstration at Graf Grower’s. I tossed them with cooked spaghetti squash and everyone raved about them! This is a perfect way to preserve the flavor of […]

Toasted Pumpkin Seeds

In the midst of all this pumpkin-feasting…I was asked to prepare toasted pumpkin seeds for my cooking demonstration. Hmmm….toasted pumpkin seeds. I never really liked them so how am I to prepare them if I don’t like ‘em? I know how to remove the pumpkin ‘guts’ from the pumpkin…. and clean them up… The challenge […]

Pumpkin Bread

I celebrate glorious Fall with this glorious pumpkin bread recipe! This recipe is from an old friendship from many years ago. The friendship has since faded but not the memories. Isn’t that the fun of recipes and food? Food is meant to be shared. This recipe is for two loaves so it’s made for sharing. […]

Pumpkin Fest!

It’s Friday. It’s sunny. It’s Fall! Oh Yeah! I’m getting ready for my cooking demo tomorrow at Graf Growers…. and it’s all about pumpkins! I picked up a box of baking pumpkins yesterday to cook down to a pumpkin pulp. Seriously, why would you use pumpkin out of a can when you can cook these? […]

Jammy Yammys

Tomorrow I’m preparing for my cooking demonstrations at Graf Grower’s. The theme is back to school recipes. This is one of those recipes that if you read the ingredients you may never try it. So I didn’t tell Hubby what was in them… Sweet potatoes and jelly muffins! Cook yourself up some sweet taters… Mash ‘em […]
