I love making these muffins whenever I have leftover sweet potatoes of any kind. Virtually any sort of sweet potatoes will work. I’ve used spicy mashed sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, even Thanksgiving sweet potato casserole. If the sweet potatoes you’re using...
I love Beef Stroganoff. I also love dinners I can throw in the crockpot while I go off and do something else. And, I really love coming home in the fall to a house that smells like somebody has been cooking Beef Stroganoff while I was gone. No doubt you will, too....
Fresh cheese tortellini is the unsung hero of the cold case in your grocery store. It cooks super fast, goes with everything, and is excellent in soups, salads, and a huge variety of pasta dishes. Plus, it’s hearty enough that you know you’ve eaten. I always try to...
***HALLOWEEN EDITION*** Chili for a Crowd is an easy but delicious classic ground beef and bean chili. It’s pleasantly lively but not too spicy, so it works well for all ages. Chili for a Crowd regularly accompanies important football games and Christmas parade...
Y’all know how we are about TexMex food around here. We LOVE it. We love it so much that we keep lots of TexMex ingredients around at all times. We love it so much that we need lots of easy recipes to use all that stuff up. We love it so much that at my house TexMex...
Flank steak isn’t something I remember having growing up. I rarely see it in restaurants, though I suspect my local Mexican place uses it for my favorite dish there: Tacos al Carbon. I’ve not cooked with flank steak more than a couple of times; I have a phobia about...

I’m sure you’ve all heard of the beloved British dessert, Eton Mess. It’s a gorgeous jumble of macerated strawberries or raspberries, whipped cream, and meringue. I have a friend who had a restaurant in Tuscaloosa once upon a time, and when they came up with a brownie...
I’ve recommended (and explained) Coconut Rice as an accompaniment to other dishes before, but I wanted y’all to be able to go straight to the recipe when you need it. You’ll only need it once though, it’s so easy to remember. In addition to being delicious, coconut...
**Lazy Chef Edition** So there I was planning this grilled-pork-teriyaki-satay-situation-with-peanut-sauce-and-everything to share with all of you. But I was totally dragging my feet and it wasn’t getting done. Y’all know I’m a charcoal grill girl, and that’s a whole...
Call it Low Country Boil, Frogmore Stew, or whatever else you want, we all know it and enjoy it. And no wonder; with corn, potatoes, sausage, and shrimp it’s pretty hard to go wrong. I love the idea of tossing everything in a 20 gallon stockpot outside and ending up...
