	New York-Style Cheesecake with a Fresh Strawberry Topping by Foodiewife I've been rather scarce, this month, and I've missed not being able find time to edit and upload recipes that are backlogged on my computer. Part of myabsence was adjusting to being an empty nester. I feel into a temporary sense of grieving. On March 1st, my sonpacked up his car with his few personal belongings, and drove…	1 vote 583 views
	Indoor Barbecue: Kalua-Style Pork (Pressure Cooker Style) with a Pineapple-Mango Salsa by Foodiewife Hello friends! I'm back from my self-imposed little vacation from my blog. To my world of invisible internet friends, one might think that every meal I make is blog worthy. I hate to burst anyone's bubble, but that's just not true.Every once in a…	1 vote 758 views
	Southern Style Coconut Cake with a Whipped Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting by Foodiewife I am a life long member of the "I love coconut" fan club. I must really love coconut cake, because I've already shared three different coconut cake recipes on my blog (starting in 2009). My favorite cake is white cake. Hands down. End of story. I…	1 vote 607 views
	Braised Beef Shortribs (in red wine) by Foodiewife For the last couple of weeks, there's been a bit of radio internet silence from me on Instagram, Facebook and on my blog. I need to adjust to a new chapter in my life, and I'm slowly getting there. For those of you who have been following me, you've often heard me refer to my recipe taste testers as "my boys". Well, the time has…	1 vote 557 views
	Drunken Beans by Foodiewife How many beans recipes have I posted, over the years? Quite a few! I never tire of finding new ways to prepare them. We especially enjoy beans with barbecue and chili con carne.Given my first choice, pinto beans always win. This must come from my childhood love of my "Nana's" refried beans and homemade tortillas. This is true comfort…	1 vote 485 views
	Mexican Pork Carnitas/Pulled Pork (with a little help from my pressure cooker) by Foodiewife I have often given credit to my mother for forcing teaching me how to cook, ever since I was a little girl. Most of the recipes she taught me how to make were from her German (Bavarian, to be specific) origins. To this day, my siblings request that I…	1 vote 495 views
	Mexican Carnitas/Pulled Pork (with a little help from my pressure cooker by Foodiewife I absolutely love pork carnitas. The meat should be tender on the inside, and crispy on the outside. Authentic carnitas braises the meat first, with aromatics. Then it's deep-fried. This recipe braises the meat (I used my pressure cooker to cut the…	1 vote 1 comment 8380 views
	Blood Orange Upside Down Cake by Foodiewife Until I spent two weeks visiting my grandmother, in Bavaria, I wasn't familiar with blood oranges. I learned this the hard way. Each morning, the bed and breakfast where I stayed, would lay out a beautiful breakfast buffet. Freshly baked rolls, European butter, soft boiled eggs, cold cuts, fresh coffee and a weak looking pitcher of…	1 vote 504 views
	Mardis Gras King Cake (with cream cheese filling) by Foodiewife I've been to New Orleans, several times, but never during the Mardis Gras season. (I'm not so sure I could handle the crowds and craziness.) Mardi Gras season begins on January 6, of each year and ends on Fat Tuesday, the day before Lent. One of the wonderful traditions of Mardi Gras, and probably the mostdelicious, is the King…	1 vote 409 views
