Have you ever wished cheese dip and chips could be an entire meal? Me, too! And I have a recipe! I’ve served this Loaded Chicken Queso at every sort of event you can imagine, except maybe a wedding. But let me assure you: the first time someone comes to me...
Here's another viral recipe that's been pinging around the Internet for a while now. Lemon Ricotta Pasta is similar to Pasta al Limone but thanks to ricotta cheese, it's much creamier and hearty enough to be a full meal. And you really can have it on the table in...
I LOVE artichokes. My mom first introduced us to artichokes when we were kids, and they were always a treat. A steamed artichoke with melted butter on the side, I was in heaven. When I got a little older I ordered a stuffed artichoke in an Italian restaurant in New...
Yesterday I grabbed what I thought was a can of pineapple chunks and opened it. It wasn’t chunks, it was crushed which definitely wasn’t going to work for the fruit salad I was making. So I dumped it in a plastic container and tossed it in the fridge, promising...
Curried Chicken Salad is savory, a little sweet, and one of the tastiest chicken salads I know. It’s great on a croissant, atop butter lettuce, or on an endive leaf as a pick-up hors d'oeuvre. It’s also really good piled on crispy crackers, eaten standing over the...
No, they’re not authentic. But yes, they’re amazing and addicting. What we refer to as a báhn mì is a fine example of French-Asian fusion food from Vietnam. It began as a Vietnamese version of the quintessential French sandwich, the jambon-buerre--AKA, ham...
When I was little my favorite seafood was fried shrimp. And I liked it fried any which way. My mom made fried shrimp using a light tempura-style batter from Recipe Jubilee, the Junior League of Mobile cookbook. Morrison’s flagship cafeteria at Springdale Plaza in...
It happened again. I went to my neighborhood grocery yesterday for milk, coffee, and anything else we might need for the next three days. (It’s Coldmageddon 2026 on the Gulf Coast as I write this.) I had to walk past the meat case on my way to the checkout. And...
Mardi Gras is here! You know I require lots of delicious Mardi Gras party food to feed all our hungry revelers, and I’m sure you do, too. And the food must be substantial. After all, we need something hearty to keep our strength up, and celery sticks are simply not...
Need an easy, make-ahead, cool-weather brunch dish? Take a look at Sausage, Cheddar, and Apple Bread Pudding. It’s delicious, it’s simple, and you can make it ahead--and even freeze it--if you want to. And while it’s tailor-made for a chilly-day brunch, it can...
This braised Swiss Steak smothered in its savory onion and tomato gravy is a cool weather favorite at my house. It’s familiar, comforting, and the flavorful beef is wonderfully tender. I always serve it with some sort of starchy vehicle to transport every last bit...
So, I know I say this all the time, and it’s probably getting irritating, but our Chicken Pies were pretty popular at the catering shop. We always tried to have Chicken Pie of some sort in the coolers, and we had several versions--Broccoli and Cheddar Chicken Pie,...
