Asian-inspired Mini-Meatballs

Asian-inspired Mini-Meatballs by Amos Miller

A perfect appetizer, great hot or cold, and can be easily made the day before the party in a large crock pot. All you’ll need is toothpicks and tiny plates! I’ve built upon an interesting recipe I found for meatballs with a teriyaki sauce and the inclusion of, yes, dried cranberries. This was so tasty when I first made my…

Cajun Crowder Beans

Cajun Crowder Beans by Amos Miller

Also known as Crowder peas, these delicious little fellas can often be found in frozen form at the store. These are fresh picked right here in Michigan and, like fava beans and so many other seasonal treats, we rush them to the table. Crowders are really a 'Southern' treat and I first enjoyed them when visiting relatives in West…

Cranberries with Jezebel Sauce

Cranberries with Jezebel Sauce by Amos Miller

If you don't care for the tart tang of cranberries - try this. My dear friend, Gail, serves this dish her way frequently and everyone likes it because it is sweet & spicy and just tangy enough. A great condiment. I've modified Gail's recipe a tad and share it with you. Cranberries will no longer be a Thanksgiving side dish. This…

Slow Cooker Cranberry Pork Roast

Slow Cooker Cranberry Pork Roast by Robyn Savoie

I was craving cranberries. So I pulled out this recipe I had for a little while and made it for dinner tonight. I rely on a can of cranberry sauce to create the sweet tangy sauce for this tender pork entree. This is nicely seasoned as it simmers by using cranberry and/or orange juice, ground cloves and ground mustard. My…

Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes by Robyn Savoie

Roasting garlic in the oven brings out its sweet, nutty flavor. So it doesn't overpower mellow mashed potatoes. If you're looking for a Diabetic and/or Low-Fat Friendly recipe, see my tip below. Serve these easy potatoes with a seasoned rotisserie chicken and steamed green beans. It's also great with pork.

It might sound weird, but these were so delicious. And I'm not a pork fan.

Two-Potato Salad With Bacon And Corn by Robyn Savoie

During westward expansion, potatoes were at a premium and often sold for at least a dollar a pound. Sweet potatoes, which keep well over several months, were also popular.

Turkey Bacon Quiche In Tatar Skins by Robyn Savoie

Another great Sunday Brunch favorite or it would make a great appetizer for Game Night. Just thinly slice the potatoes, steam them in the microwave and line a muffin tin. Follow remaining instructions.

Peanut Butter, Apple And Bacon Sandwiches

Peanut Butter, Apple And Bacon Sandwiches by Robyn Savoie

Crisp, smooth, salty, sweet, warm, cool. These have it all. Do experiment with the fruit. My favorite is actually with pear - bosc or comice, but I have had this with peach, nectarines, mango. Have fun with the bread too! I've used cinnamon raisin and fruity nut rolls.
