bergdorf goodman’s gotham salad

This recipe is inspired by the original Bergdorf Goodman’s Gotham Salad that’s served at BG’s restaurant, a fantastic lunch spot in New York with views of Central Park. This salad is a long time favorite of all who’ve enjoyed it. I love making it in my own home for dinner guests. I mix mine all…

dilly salmon salad

This is a recipe I use to make all the time when Jeff and I were first married, and it’s still a favorite at our house. It’s fast, easy, frugal and delicious. Cold salmon salad makes a wonderful filling for croissant sandwiches or served over a bed of crispy greens. serves 6 6 oz. small…

the ultimate meatloaf sandwich

We had meatloaf for dinner last night. I made a huge one, using 3 lb. of meat, to insure we’d have leftovers for meatloaf sandwiches! Meatloaf sandwiches are SO good and I personally think meatloaf tastes better the day after you make it. I have several recipes for meatloaf here on my blog, but these…

the original frontier inn salad

There use to be a restaurant in Wickenburg, AZ called The Frontier Inn owned by a man named Vic Comer. He was famous for his smoked meats… and this amazing salad. We just love it with grilled steak or chicken! yield: 8 servings 6 slices thick cut bacon 1 large clove garlic, minced 2 cups…

green goddess deviled eggs with bacon

These deviled eggs are a new, healthier twist on the old, favorite classic. I make these for virtually every holiday and they also make an awesome addition to a breakfast, brunch or game day buffet! This recipe makes extra deviled egg filling than you’ll need to fill the eggs. I like to serve it in…

scotch eggs

Scotch eggs are one of my favorite treats to serve for a hearty “high” tea or brunch. They’re so delicious and satisfying. I usually enjoy mine with fresh fruit, crusty toasted bread, a wedge of sharp, white cheddar cheese, some Scottish or English pickle, pickled pearl onions and a little maple syrup, steak sauce, and/or…

turkey cranberry croissant sandwich

Get ready to make yummy noises. This is, hands down, one of my very favorite sandwiches. The flaky, buttery croissant, the slightly spicy cream cheese spread, the maple-glazed turkey, a slight crunch from the spring greens and pecans… all topped off with whole cranberry sauce and a little sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper. I…

steakhouse potato salad

We walked back and forth between our houses twice today. We live about 2 miles apart, which wouldn’t really seem like a big deal if it wasn’t 85 degrees outside, but it WAS. So, on our first jaunt we put the grand girlies down for a nap, watched THIS MOVIE again, and had lunch at…

triple bean stew with sweet potato biscuits

I made a big kettle of this yummy stew and we munched on it over the weekend. It’s especially good with sweet potato biscuits, so I made up a batch of them too. This is delicious, healthy and oh-so-cozy. If you’re a vegetarian, simply substitute your favorite vegetable stock in place of the chicken stock,…

ham salad tea sandwiches with fig butter

It’s so great when a recipe just comes together the way you want it to. These little tea sandwiches turned out perfect. Just the right amount of everything to equal a great tea treat. These were good with my iced Grand Keemun, but I imagine they would be wonderful with just about any good quality…
