We will soon find ourselves in the height of Mardi Gras season here in coastal Alabama. At my house that means most parades are two blocks away. It also means lots of hungry, thirsty, parade- and ball-going friends in the house, both before and after a parade. At...
For those days when you just can’t even think anymore, the answer to dinner is Pasta al Limone. Pasta al Limone translates to Lemon-Scented Pasta. It hails from the Naples/Amalfi Coast area of Italy, where they grow the finest lemons in the world. It’s...
When I was a teenager, my mom made a delicious pork roast that I loved. I only recall her making a few times, and I also remember coming home from school to the tantalizing aroma of that pork roast cooking. I’ve pestered my mother about it for years, but she swears...
L.A. (Lower Alabama) Caviar is a regional treat I’ve probably made a thousand times. It’s simple to toss together. It’s inexpensive to make. You probably have everything you need to make it in your kitchen right now. And all those are good things because L.A....
I’m always on the lookout for new chicken recipes. Of course I require that they taste great, but I assign big bonus points for easy preparation. And y’all already know I’m a citrus freak. You can imagine how happy I was when I first discovered Baked Citrus...
When I told my friend Jamie I was going to test out a pimento cheese version of sausage balls, here’s what she said: “Holy s%$#! OMG! Yes, please!” (We’re pretty enthusiastic about sausage balls around here.) This recipe is exactly what it sounds like. I...

King Ranch Chicken originally appeared in October, 2019. I now make this easier version, and I’ve updated the photos. I am conflicted about the end of summer. I love summertime, but I am just plain tired of being hot. I am also tired of salad. And cantaloupe. I...
