I wanted to make some scalloped potatoes, old school style, but of course, kicked up a notch. I looked up Julia Child’s recipe, but it looked to be a bit of fuss to make and ended up settling on scalloped

I find nuts and bolts a great treat to have out on the table as the sweets come out in force at Christmas, and after your umpteenth Christmas function, most people have reached their sugar limit. I have to admit

Nothing beats a big bowl of fresh homemade roasted vegetable salsa! This has a nice fresh flavor and can be made as hot as you want by using more or fewer jalapenos. The Hubby and I both prefer a less

I love au gratin potatoes, but with a lactose intolerance I can’t take the easy way out and buy the boxed version. Which I fully admit is a guilty pleasure, or rather, was. These au gratin potatoes are cheesy, saucy,

I consider myself a decent cook, but I have never mastered cooking rice (with the exception of paella). Either burnt, gloppy, uncooked, and bizarre combinations of all three. But I recently took a gamble and tried microwaving my coconut rice.

When a family dinner rolls (maybe a wee bit of pun intended) around, where the main meat is turkey, it’s mandatory to have dinner buns. Dinner buns are the basis for midnight turkey sandwiches! And for those of you who

When we were in Hawaii (Big Island), we made a very lucky discovery of a small restaurant called the Rebel Kitchen. It was some of the best food on the Island, and we ate there a couple times. The first

I love bean salad, even though it’s one of those things that I’m always leery of picking up from the deli. It always seems…. mucus’y? almost slimy? somehow unappetizing. But then I cave in and buy it and then eat

Appies, Soups, & Sides

Both the Hubby and I love navy beans. They are so creamy, meaty, and soak up flavor. I had made navy beans baked with lamb roast, on a rack over top of the beans, a few years ago. The drippings
