I love Asian-American takeout food. But you know what I love even more? Learning to make Asian-American takeout at home. It’s always tastier, more healthful, and less expensive than traditional takeout. Often, it’s even faster. This easy and delicious Spicy...
We all know I love soup. This Tomato Tortellini Soup is easily one of my favorites. It's a family favorite, and I usually have all the ingredients on hand so I can throw it together in a flash. There’s zero prep work involved. Canned tomatoes, a few common...
Who doesn’t love chicken enchiladas? And these delicious chicken enchiladas are so easy to make! They were popular at the catering shop. They’re lively, but not spicy hot, and we used to tell people they were kid- and grandmother-friendly. You can always put a...
This is the potato recipe I didn’t know I needed. A while back I read a foodie article explaining how to make tater tots a whole lot better. Their answer was to ignore the directions on the bag, and cook them for longer at a higher temperature. I was assured this...
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...
