Lump crabmeat baked in a creamy sauce spiked with sherry and Old Bay? What’s not to love? Delicious and a bit decadent, Crab Imperial tastes very fancy, but it couldn’t be easier. And before we go any further, would you just look at those terrific glass crab...
These utterly delicious meatballs are new to our dinner rotation, but they are absolutely here to stay. I really thought that Greek Chicken Meatballs were the be-all and end-all of chicken meatballs, but Asian-Style Chicken Meatballs definitely give them a run for...
Great on green salads of course, but also pasta salad, baby potato salad, even added to sour cream or Greek yogurt for a creamy tomato dip. And don't hesitate to mix Fresh Tomato Vinaigrette with butter or cream cheese for spreading on nearly anything! Need more...
These delicious Crab Boil Crackers were inspired by the famous Alabama Fire Crackers recipe that was everywhere several years back. The Alabama Fire Crackers were an upgrade to the old ranch-seasoned oyster crackers recipe that I first had in the 1980s. When I first...

I first made Street Corn Salsa in 2023 for an art opening that fell on Cinco de Mayo. I’d made other TexMex things for the food table--I don’t now remember what--but I distinctly remember this salsa drawing a crowd. (Actually, my notes say, "OMG! THIS was the belle...
Fruit salad? Whoop-di-doo, right? Nothing to see here. Yawn. UNLESS you give a little thought to the components and make this silly easy dressing to drizzle all over it. In that case, fruit salad can be awesome! I think the biggest mistakes people make...
I don’t know anybody who doesn’t like Poppyseed Chicken. And, wow! It’s super easy to make. Now, y’all know I don’t make you cook with cream of whatever soup unless it’s absolutely necessary, which is rare. Still, this IS the South after all, and...
I’ve been working hard on my next cookbook. (WHAT is taking so long?!? I don’t understand it, either.) The new book’s working title is, The Art of Everyday Cooking for One or Two, and part of that equation is super-easy delicious real food recipes with no weird...
