This is a great soup to make in a hurry that is sure to impress. Not just the same old mushroom soup – this version is full of flavor with a smooth texture and a hint of Sherry. So simple and so fast!!! Continue reading
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a huge fan of Mediterranean cuisine. They love mixing sweet with savory and by combining these flavors you get something really unique…on today’s menu is a pork dish inspired by the flavors of Morocco. Pork is not the usual meat in Morocco…lamb, beef, chicken and fish are very popular there but I’ve spiced up some pork instead! Come along with me to Morocco… Continue reading

Linda and I are only two of three sisters. Our third sister is the dip master – as in she loves to make dips. She has her go-to dips as we all do and this Reuben Dip is one of them… Sort of…??? Actually, I changed it because I was taking it to an outdoor pool party and I didn’t want to ask the hostess if I could use her oven on a hot day to heat my dip. This got me thinking of how I could make it in a way that it could just stay hot without putting out the hostess. By starting with the base of a Bechamel I was able to keep it warm for a long time and still have a consistent texture. It worked great and was a hit at the party! Sometimes you just have to think outside the box! Continue reading

If you follow Linda and I, you know I love to make homemade pastas. Making ravioli is a little work, but making one Raviolo is less… Adding an egg is an easy way to enhance any sauce. If you don’t want to make your own pasta you can always use a large won-ton wrapper. Continue reading
I’ve had my eye on this ‘Liberty’ Burger for quite a while…I first saw it on our local Smashburger menu a few years ago. I don’t think it’s there anymore; but I came across some notes about it recently and decided that this would be the perfect burger to make to help celebrate our ‘Liberty’ – you know, Independence Day and all that! So here’s my take on it… Continue reading

If you have a Wegmans in your area you’ve seen a version of this salad before. I’m not a fan of store bought dressings, I love to make my own. When recipes call for a brand of dressing I go off the grid. I also believe that every recipe can be made even better. Well, I took the idea of blueberries and cucumbers from a picture and made it my own! It was a huge hit with my family and a real winner in my book! Great for the 4th of July, great for summer, great for parties and great for you! Continue reading
