Blueberry and Cream Cheese Galette

Blueberry and Cream Cheese Galette by Foodiewife

I love the challenge of trying to figure out a way repurpose leftover ingredients. It's an added bonus when that recipe, leads to creating another recipe that turns out to be even better than you had hoped. That's exactly how this dessert recipe came to be.I had a container of fresh ricotta and I didn't want it to go to waste. So, I…

Blueberry and Cream Cheese Galette

Blueberry and Cream Cheese Galette by Foodiewife

I made this blueberry sauce to spoon over homemade pancakes, and had two cups left over. I was inspired to bake something with it, and then I began to think of blueberry and cream cheese! How good would that be? I love making Galettes, because they are a little less labor intensive than making two-crust pies. I made the dough in the…

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread by Foodiewife

My work day begins at 7:00am. Yawn. That means that I drag myself out of bed in the early hours of the morning-- and I'm not much of a morning person. I don't wake up grumpy, but I'm not very talkative until I've showered, dressed, styled my hair and put on my makeup. I leave myself just enough time to assemble my lunch tote, fill…

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread by Foodiewife

Banana bread isn't one of my top favorite snacking cakes. But, when you add chocolate to the mix-- I'm in! This banana bread is not only a perfect way to use overripe bananas, it's also super moist and easy to make. I've made this recipe twice, and it's become one of my favorite treats for my family. Recipe comes from "One Upon a…

Fig & Prosciutto Pizza with Fresh Arugula

Fig & Prosciutto Pizza with Fresh Arugula by Foodiewife

If you love figs, the sweetness of fig jam, combined with Prosciutto de Parma and melted fresh mozarella, then topped with peppery greens of arugula...well, let's just say this makes a lovely appetizer (or main meal) and makes a lovely presentation. Great recipe! I like to make my own pizza crust, but if you use a store-bought one…

Creamy and Cheesy Funeral Potatoes

Creamy and Cheesy Funeral Potatoes by Foodiewife

Funeral potatoes? I know, it sounds a bit macabre. This dish originated as a side dish, commonly served at after-funeral potlucks, by the Mormons. Traditionally, it's made with hash brown or cubed potatoes, with canned cream soup, cheese and sour cream. Since I don't buy canned cream soup, this recipe is made with cooked onion, and…

Texas Road House Rolls with Cinnamon-Honey Butter

Texas Road House Rolls with Cinnamon-Honey Butter by Foodiewife

Hello, fellow carb lovers! I am smitten with these rolls, and the cinnamon-honey butter is the perfect finishing touch. I will warn you, that they are addicting. (I speak from experience.)I am not ashamed to admit that I ate four of these rolls, and the guilt flash lasted about a nano-second. They were well worth the indulgence,…

Texas Roadhouse Rolls with Cinnamon-Honey Butter

Texas Roadhouse Rolls with Cinnamon-Honey Butter by Foodiewife

I live in California, but visited Texas last summer. My son took us to a Texas Roadhouse restaurant. My steak was good, but it was those hot rolls, slathered with the cinnamon butter that stood out the most. I searched around for a recipe, and settled on one that came from "Deliciously Yum". These are super easy to make…

Slow-Braised Atlanta Brisket

Slow-Braised Atlanta Brisket by Foodiewife

I have been absent from my food blog far too long, and I have two primary reasons for that. For one, during winter, I don't like taking food photographs when it's dark outside. I don't want to use flash (makes for unappetizing photos), and setting up photography lights is a huge hassle. Second, I'm just plain tired when I get home…

Slow-Braised Atlanta Brisket

Slow-Braised Atlanta Brisket by Foodiewife

Brisket is a cut of beef that can be very tough, unless it is slow-braised or with a slow barbecue method. The patience pays off, because the meat becomes very tender and moist. I saw this recipe on Cook's Country, and was intrigued that the recipe name comes from using Coca Cola (from where the soft drink originates). Instead of…
