Gluten Free Pumpkin MuffinsThis recipe is another one I adapted from my childhood. This latest gluten free incantation is simple, tasty, and thanks to the beloved pumpkin – really moist. If you are making this recipe in the United States – use unsweetened canned pumpkin. These quick, easy muffins can be prepared in less than 10 minutes and are totally… |

Creamy Broccoli, Chicken and PastaHere’s a variation of an earlier recipe using zucchini and ham I posted (see Useful Links below the recipe), only this time I tried a different meat and veggie, and tweaked the flavors a bit. It’s still low calorie and low fat and a nice casual family dinner. As a saucy one dish meal it’s a comfort food unto its own yet one far less… |

Peanut Butter Crumb BrownieI just love crumb toppings on desserts: coffee cakes, pies and brownies. Yes, brownies too! This peanut butter crumb topping goes well with a fudgy brownie and I used a box mix here. The packaging was for an 8×8 pan but I cooked it in a 9×9 to thin it out just a little and allow for just as much topping as there is base. |

Our Favorite Mac & CheeseIt’s been rainy and cold here. Comfort food was a must. Ken wanted macaroni and cheese, but it had to be extra cheesy with a crunchy topping. Patti said no problem and added bacon and broccoli to make it tastier and a bit healthy. Our Green Mountain Grill/Smoker added extra flavor along with their Green Mountain “Sizzle Seasoning… |

Green Beans, New Potatoes and BaconA delicious side to serve with meat, or as a main luncheon dish with salad. Honestly I could almost eat a whole plateful of this! It is so simple but so tasty. First run-through I followed the recipe exactly from Homestyle Amish Kitchen Cookbook by Harvest House Publishers 2010. Having made it several times since I made only minor… |

Root Beer Baked Beans with baconFrom "Cuisine At Home Magazine" With smoky bacon, sweet root beer, and a buttery bread crumb topping, everyone’s sure to enjoy these appetizing baked beans. I recently made these beans, only I realized (too late) that I didn't have root beer extract. I continued on, and skipped the buttery bread crumbs, too. Still, these beans were a… |

Pie Crust CrispsThis month our food theme is All American Fare. Apple pie pops into my head when I think of a dessert that fits that theme. My mom was a great pie maker and apple was one of her favorites. She made the best pie crust ever. As a kid the part of the pie I loved the most was the crust that she trimmed off after she fit it into the… |
