Asian-inspired Mini-MeatballsA 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 BeansAlso 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… |

Caribbean Citrus Pork RoastTake a vacation from the ordinary marinated pork loin. This exciting blend of island flavors makes an extraordinary roast.

Swiss Mushroom Pheasant BreastThis entree is easy to prepare but looks and tastes special enough for company and special-occasion suppers. Everyone enjoys the golden pheasant breasts topped with ham, melted Swiss cheese and fresh mushrooms. |

Shrimp In Cilantro SauceServe this lively cilantro-accented shrimp with rice to help quell the heat of the hot peppers. This recipe will make enough sauce for dipping (salsa), over eggs in the morning and dipping veggies. You can easily use thinly sliced chicken in place of the shrimp. |

Cranberries with Jezebel SauceIf 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… |

Tostadas with Shredded Pork and SpicesCrisp fried tortillas topped with re-fried beans and spiced shredded pork make a delectable treat and are often sold from stalls in Mexican City streets. I like to switch between black and pinto re-fried beans for variety. I also found you can easily make this using a crock-pot/slow cooker; see tip below. |

Roast Pork with Maple-Mustard Glaze & SauceDid you know? New York produces more maple syrup than Vermont. And pig farms are a major industry. Maple syrup combined with mustard and sage lets the flavors of a good pork loin sing. I suggest serving this roast with sautéed apples, another major New York State crop, and crisp-tender green beans. |
