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...
Cheesy and delicious, Jalapeño Popper Grits have all the flavors you love in jalapeño poppers. In case you’ve been living under a rock, if you order jalapeño poppers in a restaurant you’ll get jalapeños stuffed with cream cheese, cheddar, and bacon bits, then rolled...
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...
Peaches and blueberries are a match made in heaven. One of my very favorite quick summertime desserts is super simple. It’s nothing more than a sliced ripe peach, a handful of fresh blueberries, a tiny sprinkle of brown sugar, and a splash of ice cold heavy cream. ...
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...
Part of growing up on the Gulf Coast means you’re exposed to the wonderful world of Mediterranean food. Many local families have Greek, Italian, or Lebanese grandparents and/or great-grandparents who immigrated to the U.S. Lots of those immigrants opened grocery...
My dad knocked on the back door a few days ago and handed me a bag of seven or eight cucumbers from my parents’ garden. I cut some up for Princess Persnickety to take with lunch, I made a batch of Tzatziki Sauce, and then I threw together a batch of Refrigerator...
Antipasto. The literal translation from Italian is “before the meal.” In Italy antipasto can be any number of things served at the table before the main dishes: cheeses, meats, olives, artichokes, marinated vegetables, fried or grilled vegetables, bruschetta,...
I’ve heard the cuisine popular along the southernmost coast of the Gulf called “Mexi-ribbean”. That term works for me, and it’s perfect for Spicy Shrimp and Pineapple. This is a fantastic dinner recipe that you can have on the table in 25 minutes including cooking...
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...
