Stuffed Italian Sausages

Stuffed Italian Sausages

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...

Sausage, Eggplant, and Peppers

Sausage, Eggplant, and Peppers

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....

Pepper Jelly Glaze for Chicken

Pepper Jelly Glaze for Chicken

I have just discovered something fantastic. It’s a new sauce/glaze for chicken, and I can’t believe I haven’t tried it before. I was cleaning the refrigerator recently and found half a jar of red jalapeno pepper jelly left over from the holidays. I was considering...

Meatloaf Burgers

Meatloaf Burgers

I recently had a reader request comfort food recipes. I thought all of my recipes were comforting, but what do I know? So I asked what sort of thing he had in mind. The answer was meatloaf and mac and cheese. Fine. Meatloaf today, Macaroni and Cheese next week....

Jambalaya Fried Rice

Jambalaya Fried Rice

Please don’t call, email, text, tweet, or message me to say this recipe is straight-up heresy. I already know.   My very favorite jambalaya comes from the cookbook La Bouche Creole by Leon Soniat. Mr. Soniat was an old-school Louisiana chef, and he wrote a food...

Marinated Steak Salad

Marinated Steak Salad is one of my favorite things to eat with my fingers, straight out of the refrigerator, standing in the kitchen, sometimes with the refrigerator door open. (Can somebody please get my Dad some smelling salts? After all, we don’t own the power...

This is exactly the sort of dinner I like whenever my week and To Do list are nuts. It’s a tried and true recipe, widely accepted and acceptable, and it doesn’t trash the kitchen. It's the holiday season as I write this--y'all know the fun doesn't let up until Lent...

Beef Stroganoff (in the slow cooker!)

Beef Stroganoff (in the slow cooker!)

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....

Tuscan Chicken Tortellini

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...

It's springtime!!! And spring requires easier, lighter, and quicker foods.  Curried Chicken Salad fits the bill beautifully.  This chicken salad uses mild English-style curry powder and isn't the least bit spicy.  It's kid- and grandmother-approved!
