Casablanca Curried Chicken (Tagine)

Casablanca Curried Chicken (Tagine) by Salad Foodie

A healthy Moroccan thick stew or tagine to enjoy with rice, couscous or pita bread. Suit the degree of curry and hot pepper to your family’s taste. Lamb or beef can be subbed for chicken. Leftovers improve in flavor, and freeze well too.

Dad’s Tavern Chili

Dad’s Tavern Chili by Salad Foodie

As an adolescent I was commissioned by my dad to make a huge pot of chili for his tavern weekly, and I earned fifty cents a batch doing so! (This was before the era of food safety regulation and inspection - I just made it in our home kitchen!) Dad had taught me how to make his chili, and everyone agreed it was in a class of its…

Pork Pot Roast with Vegetables and Apples

Pork Pot Roast with Vegetables and Apples by Salad Foodie

Sometimes my experiments actually go right and this one turned out a “bell-ringer.” This pot roast simmers in a Dutch oven on your back burner for a couple of hours and fills the house with divine aromas! Not just for fall or winter, serve it anytime for company or for casual. The gravy is luscious. Don’t be put off by the form of…

Chili con Carne - Stove Top or Crock Pot!

Chili con Carne - Stove Top or Crock Pot! by Salad Foodie

Hurray for fall and chili time! This makes a batch for about 5 adult servings, but there’s no such thing as having too much chili. You can freeze leftovers or just double the recipe and freeze the extra for busy week nights. I try to make a day ahead to deepen the flavors.

Arroz con Pollo - Yellow Rice and Chicken

Arroz con Pollo - Yellow Rice and Chicken by Salad Foodie

Spanish, Cuban, South American - a traditional and popular ethnic dish, this ranks among my all time favorites and is comfort food at its best! Most often accompanied by black beans (see link) and green peas. Rice takes on a yellow cast from that most expensive of all herbs - saffron. My mom-in-law used a flavoring packet called Vigo…

Chili with a Choke

Chili with a Choke by Rich H

Funny sounding name - but before you run off without trying this great chili recipe...what else could I call it with the addition of delicious, quartered artichokes that provide just the right bit of tangy flavor? Oh and something else you don't typically find in chili - potato! Trust me, this chili recipe is delish!

Pork w/ Apple, Onion & Hard Cider Sauce

Pork w/ Apple, Onion & Hard Cider Sauce by Amos Miller

Leaves turning, cooler breezes blowing - time for a comforting pork roast with onions, apples and hard cider. This is a deceptively simple dish that Claire Robinson turned me on to, and is loaded with country flavors. The hard cider reduces down to a savory sauce after Granny Smith apples and sliced onions are caramelized. A very…

Ham (or Bacon) and Bean Chowder.

Ham (or Bacon) and Bean Chowder. by A.L. Wiebe

My version of this hearty, soup, loaded with navy beans and vegetables. I like plenty of stock to boil the beans in, so they don't scorch so easily, and the stock generally reduces with the brisk simmering. I make a roux to thicken the chowder a bit, but you can certainly skip this step if you prefer, just start with less stock.…
