Pineapple Stuffing by Denise Sherin

My sister-in-law 1st started making pineapple stuffing for our family and it was a perfect addition to our Holiday Ham and Cabbage dinners. We love it, it's a nice change from our usual savory bread stuffing. The kids love it too!

Sauteed Zucchini in Homemade Tomato Sauce by Denise Sherin

I love homemade tomato sauce, it's so much better than jarred sauce. As a summer side dish I add sauteed zucchini, it's so yummy. I recently served it as a side with baked cod and we wound up putting it right over the fish it was terrific!

Italian Turnip Greens

Italian Turnip Greens by Carolinaheartstrings

I love me some greens. It doesn’t matter if it’s collards, turnip or what-have-you. Now my dad, who is deceased, used to talk about his Italian mother cooking greens.
