You won’t be disappointed in this garlic bread. It’s cheesy It’s warm and crunchy It’s just waiting for some warm marinara to dip into 5 garlic cloves, grated 8 Tbsp. unsalted butter, softened (1 stick) 1/2 tsp. water 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1/2 tsp. oregano 1 baguette, sliced in half…

Familiar dishes always return.  If you have had your fill of turkey (for now), freeze a few TV dinners for a busy night or for just when you get that “craving” again!  Old fashioned croquettes go great with steak or any meal.  Of course you can add the traditional turkey to the croquettes as well…

Basically, it’s a doughnut made with a potato base which originated in Germany.  The result – a fluffier, more airy version of the doughnut. What was the first nationwide donut chain?  Krispy Kreme? Dunkin Donuts?  The answer is Spudnuts.  Two brothers invented this recipe in the 1940’s. I don’t know how the conversation got started,…

Key lime pie tastes light and bright, but surprisingly the light part isn’t true.   Traditional recipes can include raw egg yolks, fatty whipped cream and clock in at about 450 calories per slice. Greek yogurt gives this pie a creamy texture and I would eat this pie over the full-fat version any day –…

This is a fun way to serve stuffed french toast. You can fill these with just about anything! I’m thinking these could also be a dessert! Ingredients 6 slices white or wheat bread Nutella, Strawberry Cream Cheese or any preserves 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter 1 egg 1/2 cup milk 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 tsp.…

I’ve searched the internet for ways to make homemade sauerkraut the old-fashioned way – in a fermenting crock.  Frankly, I don’t have the patience to wait!  It was hard enough waiting for my Naturally Fermented “Crock” Garlic Dill Pickles to be ready!  This recipe is so simple – there is some waiting time – but I…

I have tried so many recipes for homemade corn muffins and they all disappointed. I tried the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix with Yellow cake mix – You might as well just bake a cake. Ina Garten’s recipe was a total flop. This recipe, in my opinion, is the best one I have come across. I…

Did you know that the first pies were often made from pastry that was intentionally barely edible?  Pastry was used as a method of keeping meats and fillings moist during cooking and also to seal the filling to keep it from spoiling. YUM.   Many believe the term “pie” has its beginnings from “magpie”, a bird…
