Asparagus bread pudding by Chris Patil

It’s spring, the asparagus is in, and it sometimes seems like there aren’t enough ways to eat it. This dish can stand alone as a vegetarian entrée or serve as a hearty side dish alongside roast chicken or fish. My guests have compared the consistency to a calzone. This is a fairly forgiving recipe though I would caution against…

Chicken Wings or Drummies - Orange Glazed by Amos Miller

Russian Pasties by A.L. Wiebe

Savory spiced ground meat nestled in fresh bread dough. I double or even triple this, then freeze to reheat later for a quick snack. You can really use just about any type of bread recipe for this, and the filling is only a suggestion. You can use just about anything, as long as it isn't too moist. Cheddar cheese, while delicious,…
