Creole PralinesBetter than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the… |

Shrimp BarbequeWatch out! There is alot of butter in this dish - but life is an adventure and we have to occasionally take some risks! You will want a good French bread for dipping in the sauce & you'd better wear a napkin - or better yet, a lobster bib, too. If you are a child of N'awlins Creole and Cajun cooking, you know how to eat mudbugs… |

Chicken Provencal w/ Honey & LavenderI wanted to recreate the summery scents and flavors of Provence, France, so this is the result. You can inject this formula between the skin and flesh of a chicken or a duck. You can also baste your bird during the last half hour of roasting. Either way, this is an amazing taste trip to the south of France. If you have a Bandol… |

Friends, if you are going to pay good money in these bad times for a grilled cheese sandwich, I say it is time to make it yourself - and we're talking about not just any grilled cheese sandwich. Let's… |

You'll save the picking and pitting time and end up with a fabulous pie that will thrill even those who say they do not care for cherry pie (I've had it happen). As a native-born… |

Orange Cinnamon Honey Fig JamFor something a bit flowery and highly aromatic, the combination of figs with cinnamon, honey, and orange fills the bill. This delightful jam is wonderful drizzled on all sorts of desserts - pound cake, ice cream - right down to a simple piece of toast. Slow cooked and easy to make, this treat is perfect for guests or gifts. |

Pork w/ Apple, Onion & Hard Cider SauceLeaves turning, cooler breezes blowing - time for a comforting pork roast with onions, apples and hard cider. This is a deceptively simple dish that Claire Robinson turned me on to, and is loaded with country flavors. The hard cider reduces down to a savory sauce after Granny Smith apples and sliced onions are caramelized. A very… |

Uncle Amos' Molasses CookiesThis is an old stand-by, perfect for the holidays, for winter, for enjoying with a glass of milk, or hot coffee, tea or cocoa. The beautiful thing is that these cookies get better everyday - if you can stand to have them around without consuming them! This is a make-the-dough-one-day and bake-the-cookies-the-next project, so… |

Garbage Salad (not really)This salad will make the meal, or be the meal. Broccoli, oranges, almonds, raisins, mushrooms, onion & bacon - and a fabulous classic sweet & tangy creamy dressing! Vegetarians can substitute bac-o-bits, or not add a bacon substitute. Throwing together bits and pieces of a variety of items has long been the basis of some great… |

So let me give you the best recipe I have for a tasty, nourishing and economical soup - and who doesn't want that these days! And… |
