Bacon Mac (Macaroni & Cheese with Bacon)It's hard to improve on an American classic, but I think this recipe based on Cooking Light Magazine (9/09) does just that. I stayed fairly close to its version and am glad I did. We loved the smoky flavor bacon imparts to cheesy pasta, and the extra zing from hot sauce. You will need a broiler-safe baking dish or pan for this. I used… |

Roasted Butternut SquashTo roast butternut squash you can either roast cut in half, cut side down, in a pan with a little water for about 1-1½ hours and then scoop out of the skin or peel, seed, cube and roast for about 30 minutes on high heat.

Coach's Favorite Baby Lima BeansI have a dog park buddy (former basketball coach) I cook for, and he brought me this recipe a lady in his school cafeteria gave him before retirement. If you can't find dried baby lima beans, use canned or frozen. This is a real southern comfort food dish, which you will see when you read the ingredients. |

Beans with Burnt EndsBurnt ends are the blackened parts of a brisket that has been smoked. Some people like to cut the ends off, pour on bbq sauce, and cook them another two hours or so, then make sandwiches. I do that, but also add them to beans. Make these with drained pork and beans. |
