Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger by Patti Fisher

We got a complaint from some friends that when they go out for burgers the meat is paper thin and the cheese, if you can find any, is tasteless.

Chicken with Lemon and Oregano by B Innes

This recipe came from the Sopranos Family Cookbook. The other night I was going through recipes to find something interesting to cook chicken with, having only a few ingredients in the house and this fit the bill. I did embellish the recipe a little to make it my own!

Crunchy Chicken or Turkey Casserole by myra byanka

Great for leftover turkey, or use rotisserie chicken for convenience. To stretch the dish to serve more people, add some cooked rice or pasta and use a full cup of mayonnaise.

Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake

Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake by Patti Fisher

Ken wanted macaroni and cheese made meaty with sausage. Patti had an “aha” moment because frozen pierogies are something we always have on hand, plus Ken just cold smoked lots of our favorite kinds of cheese.

The sauce was simple with lots of flavor. Ken especially loved the 40 or so cloves of garlic. The longer garlic cooks the sweeter it gets. Plus, with our Pacific Living…
