Giant Valentine Heart Cookie (It’s a Puzzle Too!)What fun this is, to get a giant heart cookie that is a jigsaw puzzle too! Package pieces in a box, or stack pieces and tie with perky ribbon to surprise the kids (and kids of all ages.) This dough has 2 cups of oatmeal which makes for a crunchy and unusual sugar cookie. One batch makes two giant cookies that cut into 10 or more… |

Focaccia (Italian Flat Bread)A basic focaccia recipe easy to make. Serve with any number of entrees, salads, soups, use as sandwich bread or as a base for a variety of focaccia toppings. Recipe will serve 8 conservatively but who stops at one conservative serving of homemade focaccia? Better double the recipe and be sure you'll have enough! The dough setting of a… |

Corned Beef and Vegetable SoupFor a change from sandwiches, use the last gasp of the corned beef to make soup! The leftover broth from simmering the meat forms the base of the soup, and fresh chopped vegetables plus seasonings revive it for a command performance. |

Spiced Sesame Bar CookiesMiniature chewy bars with a foreign and exotic flair make a special sweet with coffee or tea. Sesame seeds form a nut-like crust to bottom and top of the moist spicy bars. A little challenging to fill the pan without disturbing the bottom sesame layer, but a labor of love for a special occasion cookie. |

Sweet and Sour MeatballsI served this at an informal dinner as mini-cocktail meatballs (1" size) but in a sweet and sour sauce, rather than barbecue, and everyone loved them. Next time they will be made into larger ones as an entree served with rice. I like the combination of meats in making meatloaf or meatballs, and ground turkey or chicken would be a… |

Cinnamon-Raisin Graham Bread (for bread machine dough cycle or conventional yeast bread method)This is baked whole grain bread at its best, and amply satisfies my yen for cinnamon raisin bread! The grain of the loaf is fine and the taste lightly sweet. Savor a slice of the flavorful bread alone, or add a smear of cream cheese or butter. Use as… |

Peanutty Oatmeal CookiesA different take on peanut butter cookies. The oatmeal adds chewiness, and the chopped peanuts add extra crunch. For an over-the-top serving, spread a cookie with a smear of peanut butter and dab of jelly. |

Huevos RancherosAny excuse to eat Mexican for breakfast works for me, and this version of Huevos Rancheros is as crunchy and delicious as it is colorful. Tortilla chips replace traditional tortillas for the base, topped with black beans, egg, salsa, avocado and cheddar cheese. Now this dish will get the sleepy-heads to the table fast! |
