Got Carrot Salad? Got 20 Minutes? by kathy gori

I love stuff that's fast and easy. These are the recipes that are lifesavers especially when "stuff" happens, for lack of a better word. Dishes that are versatile, and inexpensive to prepare and can be prepared ahead of time are even better. I was looking for that sort of thing this week, after the whole Film Festival craziness and…

Mama's Tuna Patties by Miss Polly Motzko

My mom used to make Tuna Patties when I was growing up and then I made them when I was married. When you make them up in advance you can make sandwiches out of them later or just heat them up for a nutritious lunch or dinner.

Creamy Cauliflower And Lakers Magic! by kathy gori

One thing I love about fixing a tandoori chicken lunch is the simplicity. Once the chicken has been marinated, nothing goes better with this dish than a bread some pickled cucumbers and one veg.

Cranberries Jam by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

I don’t eat any jams made with sugar. Sugar is another thing on my forbidden list. It is toxic! I only use natural and unrefined sweeteners, honey for example. All the jams that I make are made from dehydrated – rehydrated fruits, combined with delicious honey and amazing spices. The inconvenient is that they won’t last too long in…

Butternut Squash Soup by Judy Fisher

This savory soup is delicious and filling on a cool day. The curry and garlic give it a wonderful flavor. This is a family favorite that I learned at a cooking class given by Rachel Perelman who is the chef at my daughter's school. Serve with salad and a crusty bread.

Creole Seasoning by Harlan

I love this on Hamburgers, chicken, and steak.

Supreme Double Chocolate Cake by J. Gino Genovesi

A rich, delightful cake which is very moist and tasty. It is great if served with what I call "Whipped Ice Cream" , a combination of ice cream and cool whip blended together. Try it!
