Naan and Hummus PizzaI am a lover of hummus and regularly eat it as a snack with carrot sticks or crackers so when I was thinking about what I would make for my last pizza recipe this month I spied my tub of hummus staring at me from its perch in the fridge. My family tells me regularly that I like the strangest combinations. It’s true I do and this… |

As I’ve posted about, rice is one of our “Carolina Roots” and rice is a popular dish in my house. My Lowcountry sweetie says this is as good as his Mama’s so I’m posting it with pride!

Tuna Quinoa SurpriseRemember when you would ask your mother what was for dinner and she would answer “tuna surprise”? At my house this generally meant a tuna casserole made with tuna, noodles, cream of mushroom soup and peas. This was one of my favorite meals as a kid. A nice plate of a warm comfort food. This month we are cooking up dishes that we… |

Mexi Tater Tuna MeltThis is a tasty and fairly inexpensive meal to make. I love Mexican inspired flavors and we are sour cream addicts at my house so of course it got served up with plenty on the side! Add a salad and it makes a nice little meal for four. |

Orange Teriyaki Corn Flake ChickenWe are bringing you recipes inspired by using ordinary items in our pantry. Well what’s more ordinary than corn flakes? It’s a cereal I always have in the pantry along with marmalade and teriyaki. This is easy, tasty and hopefully will be what my sweetie calls a “do-over”. |

Ruth's All American CasseroleJuly’s recipes have an All American theme and what could be more “All American” than meat and potatoes right? My friend at work brought me a wonderful Church cookbook to look at and this recipe caught my eye. It was her father’s favorite and her mother had submitted it to this cookbook nearly 25 years ago. An oldie but a goodie… |

Apricot Pork and BeansPork and beans – an “All American” side dish that I gave a little tweak to recently. We love the white Great Northern beans and I used them in this version with some dried apricots to create a side dish that could just as easily be served as a main dish. My sweetie was raised up on rice, a Carolina crop for centuries, and asked for… |

Chocolate is my obsession
You know who you are!
When contemplating stuffing a piece of chocolate in your mouth just rememeber: chocolate is full of anti-oxidants. Ride that for all it is worth!
