Party Dips 1

Saturday night we had cocktails at our home with my parents and my Aunt Kathy and Uncle Fred. I love when they visit because we always have such a fun time. Well, before our dinner reservations at one of my favorite martini bars, I served cocktails and dips. I had just cooked a ham the day before, and the night before that we had my hubby’s excellent Dijon & Dill Salmon. So with my leftovers and some help from a few condiments I made some very tasty dips. Add some fresh toast points and the right presentation and you have a little party… Continue reading →

Wow! What a great way to start the new year… This has been a wonderful adventure for Linda and I. Working together has been a long time desire for us both and being ‘The Fabulous Fare Sisters’ is something we are very proud of. The most important part of it all was stepping out into the unknown…We as sisters are going to live like Mr Purkey said… Dance, Love, Sing and Live every day to the fullest… and we wish and pray the same for you.

Chicken Parmesan Croquettes

CHICKEN PARMESAN CROQUETTES

My idea of fast food when I was raising my kids and too busy to plan a meal was to pick up a rotisserie chicken and go through the Wendy’s drive through for baked potatoes with broccoli (no cheese). It was with leftover chicken that this dish was born.  Simple, delicious and a winner with the kids. I still use rotisserie chickens when I am short on time because they are so full of flavor. Rotisseries also make great chicken stock for soups and sauces… Continue reading →

Key Lime Pie

On New Year’s Eve we had some family and friends over for appetizers, dessert & cocktails…everyone had a wonderful time! For the big event, my sister-in-law Maria and my nieces Olivia & Michelle made two delicious Key Lime Pies. I was able to take a break from the cooking and baking and asked them if I could blog their creation… the pies turned out absolutely wonderful…rich, creamy and tarty with just the right amount of sweetness. Thank you Maria, Olivia, and Michelle (who assisted with the icing piping) – these Key Lime Pies were a BIG HIT!    Continue reading →

Grilled Smoked Gouda & Prosciutto With Roasted Garlic, Tomato & Onions 2

Sometimes a grilled cheese tastes like the best tasting sandwich in the whole world. As a little girl in kindergarten back when kindergarten was 1/2 a day, I would come home and want a grilled cheese sandwich (American cheese) and tomato soup (Campbell’s). Although I wouldn’t pass on this American delight still, I think my palate has heightened a little. I’ve said it before in a post last year… Wow! Last year? It was when I shared my Creamy Roasted Tomato & Garlic Soup with Grilled Cheese on Rosemary Garlic Bread….Well, today I decided to incorporate the roasted tomato into the sandwich with a smoked Gouda… Continue reading →

Vegetable Lasagna
Happy New Year! Heidi and I had a wonderful holiday filled with family, friends & fun! We hope you all enjoyed your holidays as well!

We’re starting the New Year with a MEATLESS MONDAY! What better way to start the year than by eating a healthy meal; especially after eating all those roasts and high-caloric foods during the holidays. This Roasted Vegetable Lasagna is not only meatless, but also noodle-less…the roasted eggplant and zucchini act as the noodle – and by roasting them the flavor is intensified… Continue reading →

Chicken Rice Soup

Chicken Rice Soup

This rainy Northeast weather brings the opportunity to make hearty soups. Recently Heidi served her family a Creamy Pumpkin Soup, a Creamy Mushroom, Sherry & Goat Cheese Soup and a Hearty Chicken & Ham Soup and I served my family Sopa de Carne. Well this week, one of my sons was really not feeling well, and as it’s a well known fact that Chicken Soup is the cure-all for everything, I decided to make him a hearty healing pot of soup. It was the perfect antidote! He’s back up and running and we all got to enjoy this delicious soup right along with him. These are some really great soups to warm you up on these early winter days… Continue reading →
