Need a holiday side that seems fancy, yet is easy to make, and travels well? And pairs beautifully with turkey OR ham? I know you’re planning now, and I’ve got you covered. This is a job for Stuffed Acorn Squash. I’ve served these delicious Stuffed Acorn...
I was reading an article recently about foods that have gone out of fashion. Savory Jell-O salads, liver and onions, tv dinners, spray cheese, olive loaf--I can happily wave goodbye to all of these. But some of the things on the list were just silly. Who are...
If you’ve ever had Mexican carnitas you already know they’re delicious. The name “carnitas” means “little meats”. Traditionally, carnitas are made by slowly braising a pork shoulder in a highly seasoned broth, then shredding the meat, and frying it in its own fat...
I'm not going to play coy: I make awesome deviled eggs. I don’t make the kind with smoked salmon or caviar on top. I don’t make the kind with butter in the filling. I don’t make deviled eggs that involve bacon, shrimp, or Sriracha, ever. I make old-fashioned...
I expect we’ve all heard the origin story of the Buffalo wing by now. You know, the one where Buffalo wings were invented by Teressa Bellissimo at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York? Several versions of that story circulate, pinning the inception to either 1964 or...
A few days ago I had a message from my friend, Arthur. Arthur is married to my pastry chef friend, Elizabeth. Elizabeth is an excellent cook, obviously, and she can make absolutely anything. Well, anything except shellfish. Elizabeth is big time allergic to...
A week or two ago I was supposed to be working. Football was on and it wasn’t going especially well. I was listening to the game, scrolling Facebook, and mostly goofing off, when I saw my friend Staci had posted a photo that looked like this: That's an oldfangled...
Although French Onion Chicken is delicious and has the best sauce/gravy known to man or beast, it isn't very photogenic. Beige and brown foods are notoriously difficult to photograph. But don't let the homeliness fool you. This recipe is swoon-worthy,...
King Ranch Chicken originally appeared in October, 2019. I now make this easier version, and I’ve updated the photos. I am conflicted about the end of summer. I love summertime, but I am just plain tired of being hot. I am also tired of salad. And cantaloupe. I...
Heaven only knows where I first ran into this recipe, but I’m so glad I did. I knew at first glance that we’d love it. And with Italian sausage, mozzarella, marinara, why wouldn’t we? When I Googled Stuffed Italian Sausages in preparation for writing this...
Eggplant deniers, listen up! A week or so ago I got a text from my mom. She had a recipe that belonged on the blog. She told me about a sheet pan dinner she’s been making for a while now that my dad LOVES. And after hearing what she does, I can certainly see why....
I love a good meal salad. And I love TexMex food. This salad brings both. Large enough for two, my Loaded TexMex Salad is a bodacious combo of crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, corn, black beans, avocado, cheese, and a flavorful protein. I like it...
