While we were in Italy enjoying all those lovely meals at restaurants, one thing that was almost always on the table was a Balsamic Glaze…granted, theirs were in bottles which can be bought in the vinegar aisle of the supermarket and I even have one in my pantry…but for today’s Balsamic Glazed Salmon I went old school and made my own…but I have to say I cheated just a little…I used the microwave! The end result would rival any Italian restaurant…here, try some… Continue reading
The garden is almost done… except for the Brussels sprouts… Anyway, I still had onions, potatoes and peppers to add to my breakfast this morning. On the QT, in college I used to eat corned beef hash out of a can!!! Not any more! Such a yummy breakfast. Continue reading
I love creating new combinations for salads…I saw a little bit of farro left in the pantry and decided that I wanted to use it…so on the menu today is a hearty Farro, Broccoli, Apple & Walnut Salad…the dressing is a Maple Walnut-Mayo combination that just pushed it over the top! The other great thing about this salad is that it gets better as it sits… Continue reading
My lovely little princess just got married!!! So I made a million of these little shots of cosmopolitans to please the crowd. We had their initials engraved and the hearts are from their favorite game ‘Legend of Zelda’… I have a few left over, so Shots for Everyone! It’s also a great addition to our Cocktail Corner… Continue reading
After taking the dog for a walk in the crisp cool autumn air I sat down and browsed through my recipes trying to decide which one would be on the menu today…what says Fall better than an Old Fashioned Pot Roast? I remember my Mom-Mom used to make one – she cooked it for so long that the beef became tough but the gravy was so delicious…I’ve tweaked her original recipe just a bit over the years; adding more flavor, cooking the beef to tender perfection and still enjoying the delicious gravy!

I have several spaghetti squash from my garden and this is the only way I’m going to eat them. SO good!!! My Hubby and I ate every bite and wished we had more. Continue reading
Happy Halloween! Before the kiddos head out to trick or treat tonight why not fill their tummies with a quick and easy flatbread that’s both kid and adult friendly and super healthy. Later they can snack on their goodies and you won’t feel any guilt picking out a treat or two from their overabundance! Continue reading
Now that we’re deep into Autumn, I love to use all those great root veggies in a salad. They’re terrific tossed in olive oil and roasted to perfection. Add some freshly made toasted bread cubes (think large croutons!) and you’ve got a great side dish for any week night meal! Continue reading
This is one of those chicken recipes that doesn’t ‘look’ good but tastes so yummy! It’s a rustic Spanish dish from the Castile and León regions where poultry stews and the addition of almond paste are very popular. Braised in white wine until the chicken is so tender it almost melts in your mouth and served over mashed potatoes or rice so that all the tasty broth is enjoyed… Continue reading
