Holiday Ham with Pineapples (Easter or Christmas)

Holiday Ham with Pineapples (Easter or Christmas) by Denise Sherin

This is the way my Nanny and Mom made our holiday ham. We had it for Easter, Christmas and side by side with turkey on Thanksgiving. This ham is always good, I use oven cooking bags but Mom and Nanny always used foil. It uses brown sugar and ginger ale and pineapple which makes for an excellent gravy! Just thicken the juices with a…

Grilled Blue Cheese Stuffed Pork

Grilled Blue Cheese Stuffed Pork by Patti Fisher

Patti found a huge, (13lb.) extra lean pork loin on sale; we named it “porkenstein”. Ken cut it into three pieces and this is our first recipe with this hunk. The strong flavor of the blue cheese permeated the pork and the fresh spinach added color and hid a nice healthy veggie. Just for fun we used our new Big Dick’s Margarita rub…

Maple Mustard Crown Roast of Pork

Maple Mustard Crown Roast of Pork by Patti Fisher

We wanted to do something different and extra special for one of our Holiday dinners. Patti loved the idea of a crown roast of pork; Ken loved the frilly gold crowns on the frenched pork bones. We’ve mentioned many times the lovely folks we meet at the Murrieta Farmer’s Market. Well, a delightful family named Allee including their…

Honey Soy Drumsticks

Honey Soy Drumsticks by Denise Sherin

This is a nice way to bake chicken. I use it for 12 drumsticks but you could use it for 18-20 wings, 10-12 thighs or even just chicken breasts. Original recipe says to salt and pepper the chicken before you add the sauce but I don't salt it because the soy sauce has plenty of salt. So season it how ever you like. I heat the honey…

Shepherd's Pie for lazy cooks

Shepherd's Pie for lazy cooks by Glenn

You can make this a hearty meat celebration, heavy with veggies or just a cleansing of the pantry dish. All of my measurements are "ish" meaning they are close to what is listed but nothing is critical so you can cut back on what you don't like and add more of what you do like. Let's just say, "Prepare to taste." You can replace…

Butter Baked Cod with Lemon and Capers by Denise Sherin

This is a baked cod recipe that's just plain yummy. Nothing fancy just good. Lots of butter, but you can use less or a butter substitute. Even my 7yr old likes this recipe.

Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie Braid

Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie Braid by Denise Sherin

I don't know where I found this recipe but we love it! It's fast and simple to make and very kid friendly. Goes well with a salad or soup for dinner. It's also great served sliced for a buffet. I use seamless crescent dough if you cant find it just pinch the regular crescent dough to form a rectangle.
