Home-style Chicken Curry

One thing I have to ask, is for you to give this curry a try! So many people are afraid to make their own curry… But it is so flavorful, healthy, and easy! This is a great curry for beginners. I included links to curry ingredients that you can find in most grocery stores in [...]

Italian Meatloaf

Meatloaf should be flavorful, it should be tender, and it should break apart with the touch of your fork. If it doesn’t, you are doing something wrong! This is one of the best meatloaf recipes. I designed it from scratch.. It’s very similar to my grandma’s meatball recipe (I stole the walnut idea from her). [...]

Baked Macaroni and Cheese

This macaroni and cheese is meaty, wholesome and delicous. The better the cheese, the better the flavor! This is a great recipe for kids, and grown-ups too! Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 pound elbow pasta, cooked and drained (I used mini penne) 4 tablespoons butter 1 small onion, chopped 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 4 [...]

Carmelized Onions

Carmelized onions are soooo delicious. They are an elegant side dish for dinner parties and they go well with pork, beef, and most roasts. I make them often for formal dinners or barbeques. The best part, is that they stay delicious, even at room temperature, so you don’t have to worry about keeping them hot. [...]

Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms

I absolutely love mushrooms and these stuffed mushrooms are soooo good!! I’ve made them with large portobello caps once before, and they could honestly be an entree by themselves as opposed to the appetizer… For a holiday party, I suggest smaller “stuffer-sized” portobello or white mushroom caps. 24 ounces (3 cups), White Button Mushrooms (or [...]

Homemade Pesto

When I was in Italy, I think I had pesto on everything I ate. From pizza to gnocchi to trofie and focaccia. I just love it. I was introduced to pesto young, and loved it from the start. I would have never imagined making delicious pesto from scratch. This is delicious and so easy to [...]

Sausage and Egg Breakfast Casserole

I got this recipe from my friend Sus, and we’ve both made it several times for brunch gatherings. If you want you can make it ahead the night before and just put it in the oven for an hour right before you want to serve it. Eggs, Italian sausage, milk, feta cheese – yum! I [...]

Jalapeno Cheese Grits

Jalapeno cheese grits are sooooo delicious. I think they go perfect with poached eggs and sausage, but it also goes well with dinner entrees, such as beef. You whole family will love it! My sweetie had this for the first time and said he died and went to heaven 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1 [...]

Stuffed Chicken breasts is one of my favorite meals! The best part is that you can alter the recipe based on your creativity and taste! You can make the recipe greek style (as is) or change it up and stuff the chicken with spinach, ricotta and parmesean and top with a marinara sauce instead! They [...]

Creamy Southern Cole Slaw

Cole slaw is so delicious, almost everyone loves it! This is a perfect side dish for pulled pork, ribs, or sloppy joes! 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup sour cream 1/2 small onion, grated 3 tablespoon sugar 2 teaspoons lemon juice 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 1/2 teaspoon celery seed 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1/2 [...]
