Stuffed Peppers - BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger Style

Stuffed Peppers - BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger Style by Denise Sherin

I love stuffed peppers. But my son doesn't like rice and wasn't a fan of the plain flavor of the tomato sauce. So I created these peppers knowing the flavors of BBQ bacon cheeseburger would appeal to him. I used orzo in place of rice. Needless to say he ate 2 and a half at dinner and has asked for all the leftovers to be his…

Salisbury Steak with Horseradish Mushroom Gravy

Salisbury Steak with Horseradish Mushroom Gravy by Denise Sherin

This is comfort food to me. It's a timeless classic and it's still yummy today. It is a great one pot meal that can be finished in a crock pot too, just brown the beef patties first. Serve it over egg noodles and it's hearty, tasty dinner.

Holiday Ham with Pineapples (Easter or Christmas)

Holiday Ham with Pineapples (Easter or Christmas) by Denise Sherin

This is the way my Nanny and Mom made our holiday ham. We had it for Easter, Christmas and side by side with turkey on Thanksgiving. This ham is always good, I use oven cooking bags but Mom and Nanny always used foil. It uses brown sugar and ginger ale and pineapple which makes for an excellent gravy! Just thicken the juices with a…

Honey Soy Drumsticks

Honey Soy Drumsticks by Denise Sherin

This is a nice way to bake chicken. I use it for 12 drumsticks but you could use it for 18-20 wings, 10-12 thighs or even just chicken breasts. Original recipe says to salt and pepper the chicken before you add the sauce but I don't salt it because the soy sauce has plenty of salt. So season it how ever you like. I heat the honey…

Serve with cheesy garlic bread and or a garden salad. Its great for potlucks and its a nice veggie dish option for parties and family get…

Mom's Pinwheels (Stuffing topped burgers)

Mom's Pinwheels (Stuffing topped burgers) by Denise Sherin

This is a recipe Mom made when we were growing up to help stretch a buck. And we all loved Pinwheels. Mom made them with her own Bread Stuffing, so it was flavors from Thanksgiving Stuffing all year round. My grown brother called me a few years ago asking if I could tell him how Mom made Pinwheels, he now makes them for his family…

Amish Pork Roast w/ apples and sauerkraut (crockpot)

Amish Pork Roast w/ apples and sauerkraut (crockpot) by Denise Sherin

Growing up in Pennsylvania I had the pleasure of being able to go to Lancaster Pa, which was a huge Amish community. There food is simple and delicious. This is a favorite of mine. There is a Tablespoon of cinnamon in this recipe, it's not a mistake, it sounds like alot but it does not over power this dish.
