What do you do when you have so many rolls in your bread drawer and your freezer is full to capacity? Well, I make bread pudding. Sometimes I make it sweet and sometimes I make it savory. This morning it was savory. So I surprised my hubby with sausage and cheddar bread pudding for breakfast in bed. Moist and delicious! Continue reading
The original Parmigiana is claimed by three different regions in Italy; the Campana region, which is located in south central Italy, the Sicilian region located off the coast of Italy near the ‘toe of the boot’ and the Parma region which is in Northern Italy. And believe it or not, the original was made with eggplant. Variations of Parmigiana are made with chicken and veal. Today’s Chicken Parmesan is a classic that’s pretty much on every family’s table at least once in a while. I generally serve it over a plate of capellini with a simple tomato-vodka sauce and a sprinkling of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Here’s to Italy! Continue reading

This hearty soup is a typical Latin American soup. It’s really just beef & potato soup but with a Latin flair! My mother-in-law used to make a similar soup for my oldest son when he was a little boy. She would serve everyone a big bowl but would put his in a blender and smooth it out…oh, so good! Sometimes I just wanted mine puréed too! But either way it’s comforting, warm and very hearty for a cool day such as today… Continue reading
Quiche used to intimidate me. Whenever I would order it out, you would get this tiny piece for a lot of money. I always figured it must be very hard to make… until I made it! Truth is, nothing could be more simple or versatile. You can put anything in it and it comes out perfect every time. Now I make it when I have people for brunch and everyone wants to know what I did to make my quiche so light and fluffy. Well, this is what I do… Continue reading
