Spaghetti Pie

Spaghetti Pie by Nanette

A pie fit for a holiday table (Easter for my family), Lent if you omit the meat or a light supper. Serve with a tomato salad and your favorite soup if you need more than a slice of the pie to fill you up. You won't be disappointed with this one! My family has been cooking and enjoying this pie for generations.

Pork Medallions In A Red Wine Cream Sauce

Pork Medallions In A Red Wine Cream Sauce by Nanette

An absolutely delicious pork dish. The "little ear" pasta is the perfect shape to capture this rich, full-bodied sauce. It's surprisingly quick and easy. A real pleaser!

Refreshing Eggplant Sandwich

Refreshing Eggplant Sandwich by Nanette

It doesn't get easier than this, nor more delicious. It is light and refreshing. I love it with a cup of soup, whatever kind you like. To make it even easier, I buy slices of breaded eggplant from a very good deli. Be sure they are sliced thin. If you'd rather fry your own (or bake them) I included a quick recipe at the bottom of the…

Blueberry & Peach Cobbler

Blueberry & Peach Cobbler by Nanette

My best friend, Sunny, made this yummy dessert when my husband and I visited her and Russ at their Rhode Island Beach House. The berries and peaches were farm fresh, sweet and juicy. This cobbler is easy to make, buttery, not-too-sweet and good, good, good! If you visit my blog cucinananette.blogspot.com you can read the details of my…

Italian Mac & Cheese

Italian Mac & Cheese by Nanette

My BFF, Sunny, was coming for dinner with her husband and I was making pork tenderloin with blueberry balsamic sauce, but what to serve as a side dish? She adores Mac & Cheese, so I wanted to serve what she loves. Not being a big fan of traditional mac & cheese, I searched for a recipe that would make us both happy. The two cheeses…

Husband Catcher Cake

Husband Catcher Cake by Nanette

I swear this is true...Chris was crazy for Tommy, but he paid little attention to her. He was quite popular. She was determined to win his heart and brought this chocolate-to-die-for cake to a party they were both attending. Near the end of the evening, she cut a slice and sweetly offered it to him. He took her home that night and…

What to do with all that Italian squash? Zuppa..Soup! The light refreshing taste is a summer favorite in my family. For a different twist...add a scrambled egg to boiling soup for Squash Egg Drop Soup.

Pansit Canton (Filipino)

Pansit Canton (Filipino) by Nanette

I was recently introduced to Filipino cooking. It is a fusion of Chinese, European, American, Arab and Asian cuisines, rich in flavor and color. Adobo Chicken is probably the most well known and another favorite is Pansit Bihon. I haven't seen Pansit Canton on CES, so here it is. It may have quite a few ingredients, but it's not…

King Ranch Chicken Nanette's Way

King Ranch Chicken Nanette's Way by Nanette

A dear friend, Pat, shared this recipe with the members of our supper club. She got it when she lived in Texas and seeing several version on CES proves that it's a favorite of many chefs. I'm not a big fan of canned soup recipes, but this is an exception. My recipe is different than those I've seen and I think the extra ingredients…
