I thought I would end the week with a great dessert recipe from last year’s August/September issue of Taste of Home magazine. I had made this tasty recipe for my brother when he was down for a visit last summer and he loved it. Since I’m going to Spokane for this weekend, he emailed that [...]

Before I put my February/March issue of Taste of Home magazine in the stack, thought I would share one more recipe the from current magazine billed as the “ultimate comfort food issue.” Since it contains cabbage, it might also be considered for a St. Patrick’s Day meal when you planning Wednesday’s menu.

Broccoli salad is one of my favorites and I often find myself craving it, regardless of the season. This week was one of those times so I bought a container at Safeway’s deli. It wasn’t the best I’ve ever tasted so decided the next time I was in one of those food moods, would make [...]

I am featuring the new “2010 Food and Wine Annual Cookbook in Saturday’s Cookbook Corner column and since there were so many good recipes in this current publication, decided to share some on the blog. I have gotten this annual cookbook for years and usually the recipes are a bit sophisticated. But this is not the [...]

Although the recipe I’m sharing today came from the March issue of Bon Appetit, it was on a page advertising Newman’s Own® Pasta Sauces.

The fajita recipe sounded good to me, unusual in my case since it also appeared to be healthy. I like fish crispy and this one appears to accomplish that goal [...]

Included in the email received Wednesday, the SeaPak folks included a few recipes to show readers that even though they are observing meatless Friday, they can still serve up delicious, quick and affordable meals. I happen to like [...]

In my quest to provide easy recipes that can be put together in a snap, found one such item in “The Chicken Cookbook,” published after the 44th National Chicken Cooking Contest in 2001. This recipe with a South of the Border twist is a great way to use up leftover chicken, regardless of how it is [...]

In my Cookbook Corner column Saturday, I promised more recipes from a recently released cookbook titled, “Grocery Gardening: Preparing, Harvesting and Cooking Fresh Food” by Jean Ann Van Krevelen. The cookbook has some tasty recipes, but since planting time will soon be here I thought it timely to remind people how satisfying it would be to [...]

For as long as I can remember, my family always had pickled eggs on the Easter dinner table. To achieve the desired “reddish” color, my mother always used her home canned beets. After she died, I hung on to the couple of cans I had left because I knew I would never be able to [...]
