I just love the name of this simple, old fashioned pie. So darling! And, it tastes amazing too. It’s delicate and slightly custardy. Perfect with an afternoon cup of tea. If you have a little of the filling left over, you can make an additional, miniature “baby” pie and put it in a small tart…
This is one of my favorite creations yet. It’s SO good and the steak comes out tender and swimming in this awesome, creamy, mushroom gravy! I always use organic, MSG-free products in my recipes whenever possible. I absolutely adore Amy’s semi-condensed soups in place of the old standby, Campbell’s. They’re generally much lower in sodium,…
This is sort of an elaborate recipe. It’s not difficult, but it is lengthy. Just bear with me 🙂 Also, if you want the more traditional, sliceable sauerbraten that you may have become accustomed to, use eye of round instead of chuck arm roast. I use chuck arm for everything because it’s so damn amazing…
I’m sure I’ve already told you how much we love tacos and how often we eat them. I’m always trying to come up with new ways to make them. One of my favorite foods is coconut shrimp and I finally got around to making some a couple days ago. Why not use them as a…
Spring is coming! Can you feel it? It’s there like a little cat peeking around the corner, ready to pounce. I’m so glad. I’m done with all of the cold, gray days. Bring on the sunshine, and the flowers, and most of all the color! Who else is craving color? When I start thinking spring…
With all of the recipes for yummy, decadent, cheesy breads floating around on the internet, I just had to share one of my favorites. It’s tried and true, it’s delicious and what’s more, 85 gazillion other people don’t already have it on their food blogs. Do I sound annoyed? Okay, I am a little. Have…
Jeff brought some beautiful blood oranges and Cara Cara oranges home a few days ago. He treated us to his famous orange beef broccoli that is out of this world. He makes his own homemade wheat noodles and then fries them so they get kind of browned and sticky. YUM. Seriously, I’ll have to get…
I’ve been on a roll, making lots of breads and soups in my kitchen. This particular recipe is a cross between bread and cake. It’s not too sweet, so it’s the perfect accompaniment to tea and is wonderful topped with a little sweetened whipped cream or honey butter and served with fresh fruit. Feel free…
The combination of cornbread and chili got me thinking that maybe corn cake (or cornbread muffins) and sloppy joes would make a good pairing. Oh my gosh! This turned out to be a match made in heaven. Super easy and the perfect, fast comfort food meal. Just make a little spinach salad as an accompaniment…
“Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. A kid’ll eat ivy too, wouldn’t you?” ~children’s lullabye by The Pied Pipers 1944 I just returned home from a fun weekend hanging out with friends. We had massages, went to dinner, played poker, and enjoyed an awesome Sunday brunch. I’ll share photos…
