Easy Spinach & Artichoke Dip

Easy Spinach & Artichoke Dip by Clarisa Skinner

Everything's better with Ranch, so it stands to reason that Spinach dip would be too. This is one of the dishes that my entire family expects me to show up with for all gatherings and holidays!

Black Bean & Rice Salad

Black Bean & Rice Salad by Clarisa Skinner

This is one of my favorite recipes and I came up with it by accident! I was supposed to be making a pot of black beans to serve with rice, but by the time I was done it had turned into something totally different. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Posse Stew

Posse Stew by Clarisa Skinner

When I was a teenager, my step-father made a dish he called Posse Stew. Basically it consisted of browned ground beef and several cans of vegetables and kidney beans. Since then I have changed the recipe some to suit my family's tastes (no kidney beans for sure!) and it has become one of my favorite comfort foods. The recipe is…

Left Overs into Spring Rolls

Left Overs into Spring Rolls by Clarisa Skinner

I love fresh Spring Rolls (not the deep fried ones). Unfortunately, it isn't always easy to get to a restaurant that serves them from where I live, so I bought rice paper at the Oriental store in order to teach myself how to make them. Between a craving for Spring Rolls and wanting something new to carry in my lunchbox to work, I came…

Apricot Babyfood Cake

Apricot Babyfood Cake by Clarisa Skinner

Every time I bake it, I'm taken back to those precious times with her in the kitchen laughing, talking, eating and hand-copying her recipes (before…

Venison Tamales

Venison Tamales by Clarisa Skinner

Okay...so....tamales take a lot of time to prepare, but the alternative to making you own is actually trusting someone else when they tell you the ones you are buying aren't hot. The last time I bought tamales from a friend's mother, the "not hot" tamales turned into a 3 alarm fire in my mouth! This year we are having a Tex-Mex…

Chicken Spaghetti - My Way

Chicken Spaghetti - My Way by Clarisa Skinner

We had a potluck lunch at work recently and the theme was Italian food. I wanted to make Chicken Spaghetti, but couldn't find a recipe on the internet that I really liked. I finally found a simple recipe on Cooks.com (Chicken Spaghetti located at http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,1639,147176-234194,00.html) that I decided to try, but…
