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...
This isn’t my recipe. Jenni Jones taught it to me, but she says she didn’t make it up, either. Y’all know Jenni. She ran the front of the catering shop and was always super nice, genuinely happy to see you, and incredibly helpful. She always knew who you were, whether...
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...
My sister taught me this recipe for summer produce at least 25 years ago. It’s awfully good and it’s so easy. It reminds me of a very light and fresh vegetable lasagna without the pasta or any of the work. All you need is an eggplant or two, a big tomato or two (or...
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...
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...
