I'm not going to play coy: I make awesome deviled eggs. I don’t make the kind with smoked salmon or caviar on top. I don’t make the kind with butter in the filling. I don’t make deviled eggs that involve bacon, shrimp, or Sriracha, ever. I make old-fashioned...
I expect we’ve all heard the origin story of the Buffalo wing by now. You know, the one where Buffalo wings were invented by Teressa Bellissimo at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York? Several versions of that story circulate, pinning the inception to either 1964 or...
A few days ago I had a message from my friend, Arthur. Arthur is married to my pastry chef friend, Elizabeth. Elizabeth is an excellent cook, obviously, and she can make absolutely anything. Well, anything except shellfish. Elizabeth is big time allergic to...
A week or two ago I was supposed to be working. Football was on and it wasn’t going especially well. I was listening to the game, scrolling Facebook, and mostly goofing off, when I saw my friend Staci had posted a photo that looked like this: That's an oldfangled...
Although French Onion Chicken is delicious and has the best sauce/gravy known to man or beast, it isn't very photogenic. Beige and brown foods are notoriously difficult to photograph. But don't let the homeliness fool you. This recipe is swoon-worthy,...
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...
Heaven only knows where I first ran into this recipe, but I’m so glad I did. I knew at first glance that we’d love it. And with Italian sausage, mozzarella, and marinara, why wouldn’t we? When I Googled Stuffed Italian Sausages in preparation for writing...
Eggplant deniers, listen up! A week or so ago I got a text from my mom. She had a recipe that belonged on the blog. She told me about a sheet pan dinner she’s been making for a while now that my dad LOVES. And after hearing what she does, I can certainly see why....
I love a good meal salad. And I love TexMex food. This salad brings both. Large enough for two, my Loaded TexMex Salad is a bodacious combo of crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, corn, black beans, avocado, cheese, and a flavorful protein. I like it...

Next time you make cornbread, make a double batch! You’ll want leftovers for cornbread croutons! Cornbread croutons are good on all sorts of salads. They are particularly wonderful on Caesar salads and southwestern-type salads, like our Loaded TexMex Salad. ...
This is one of those quick-prep recipes you toss into the oven, and then don’t have to worry about for a while. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are very forgiving, and if they cook for 10 or 15 minutes longer than directed, it’s really not a big deal. Also, Asian...
