I’ve been thinking about Greek Chicken Meatballs for a while. I’ve had them and liked them, but I’ve never made them until yesterday. I was flipping through a Greek cookbook and happened upon a recipe. I’m sure those meatballs were authentic, but the recipe had a...
I’ve given out this recipe dozens of times over the years. Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies are quite possibly the perfect cookie. They’re our default house cookies, and I can’t even imagine how many hundreds (thousands?) of them my girls have eaten. In...
Princess Persnickety and I have a new favorite summertime dinner: Lemony Chicken Flatbread. Why do we like it so much? First, it’s refreshing and delicious. Second, it’s ridiculously easy and requires next to no work to prepare. Third, it’s one of those...
I’ll make this quick--after all, lady pea season is short! Some people call them cream peas or zipper peas, but growing up we called them lady peas. Lady peas are the most refined member of the southern field pea family. They’re petite, pale green to nearly white, and...
This is the very best easy coleslaw recipe I know. I’ve had it for a number of years, and I’ve made it countless times. The person who gave it to me made me promise not to tell anyone where I got it, so I won’t. So what’s good about it? It’s delicious. You...
Fresh peach season is so brief that I feel obligated to make the most of it. Toward that end, I offer you Brie with Pepper Jelly Peaches. It’s delicious yet silly easy, and that's my favorite food category ever! Brie with Pepper Jelly Peaches is appropriate for any...
This is by far my favorite blueberry muffin recipe. It’s so easy, and I love the flavor and the texture. I’m not a fan of muffins that are overly sweet, or cakey, or dry, and these are none of those things. And you’re going to laugh when I tell you the secret...
Yum--Chicken Souvlaki. I make it frequently in the summer. If you’re not familiar with it, souvlaki is Greek street food. I first tasted it in college at an international food fair. When I had my own kitchen, I checked a Greek cookbook out of the library and...
We've loved Ramen Noodle Salads here at Casa LCK for ages. If you’ve been to a barbecue/potluck/dinner-on-the-grounds affair in the last 25 years, chances are pretty good that you’ve had--or at least seen--ramen noodle salad before. If not, the very idea may be,...
A few years back, I had a sweet friend call to say she needed a favor. Dot was in her 80s, smart as a whip, funny as could be, and I loved chatting with her. Dot was from Hattiesburg. She had moved here in the late 1990s I think, and we knew a lot of the same...
Do you need a nutritious dinner that everyone in your orbit will enjoy? I think we all do! Italian-American-style Stuffed Zucchini is easy and almost magical in its ability to appeal to all ages and tastes. Kids love it! You can call them “boats” or whatever else...
These delightfully tangy Apricot Pork Chops are simple enough and quick enough to become your new weeknight favorite. The sauce ingredients are all pantry staples, with the possible exception of apricot preserves. If you don’t have apricot preserves, pick up a jar...
