Homemade Swedish PancakesI love swedish pancakes and have made them for a few years from a mix I bought at Trader Joes. I was out of the mix a few weeks ago, so I tried making them from scratch. It turned out to be incredibly simple and the kids love these as much if not more as the pre-packaged mix. It's also quite a bit cheaper and means one less box I… |

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate BrowniesThis is a very popular recipe that I simplified a bit without losing any of it's goodness. You can serve these when you feel like a dark chocolate cake but don't have time to hassle with it. They make a wonderful end to any meal! They are super chocolaty, so they go really well with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream! |

Fantastic Irish Soda BreadI made two Irish Soda Breads for St. Patrick's Day this year, and this one was superior. And it is really, really easy! If you eat it hot out of the oven, it melts in your mouth like a warm cornbread. If you let it sit a few hours, it hardens into a thicker texture with the same great taste. You won't be disappointed! |

Quinoa and Fresh Corn with ScallionsThis is a great side dish we served tonight with leftover chicken breast. I've been getting great vegetarian ideas from Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison. I left the cheese out of this one to up the healthiness, and it tasted great without! |

Black Bean and Tomato QuinoaThis is a delicious quinoa recipe that we served with our garlic lime grilled pork chops. This is flavorful enough that you'll want to serve it with a relatively simple grilled dish. It would go wonderfully with grilled fish, chicken, or steak. Or try it with the pork recipe linked below. |

GranolaA nutty, fruity homemade breakfast food. This remarkably simple recipe is a much more satisfying alternative to store-bought cereal or granola. Packed with vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, this is just as good for your mind as it is for your body. And it tastes delicious, too! |

ZeppoleZeppole are so easy to make—after all, they are basically just fried pizza dough balls—it is almost embarrassing to post about it, but since it was one of my favorite snack foods that Angelina made, it deserves pride of place on this blog. And, in any event, who doesn't like fried dough? |

Cous Cous Salad with Prunes and PecansThis is a great Mediterranean dish, the recipe called for almonds, but I put in pecans instead. It is a quick and easy recipe to put together. |

Homemade Grilled FlatbreadI couldn't find any authentic pita bread or other flat bread at my local grocery store, so I decided to try grilling my own. It turned out to be really fun and not too difficult. And the taste was amazing. The hardest part was rolling out the dough (I doubled the recipe). Fortunately, I was able to do that while watching a playoff… |

Buttermilk Banana BreadI've made dozens of different types of banana bread, and this is one of my favorites. Our kids devoured it! My oldest told me "this is the best banana bread you've ever made, Mom." That's high praise from a 9th grader! |

Quinoa with Vegetables and HerbsThis was easy and a delicious side for the yogurt chicken I made the other night. My sister raved about this and my husband, who normally prefers bulgur and other grains to quinoa, really enjoyed it. If you haven't had quinoa before, this is an easy and tasty dish to start with! Feel free to substitute other vegetables you have on… |

Southern Corn BreadI was hesitant to try this because it was different than any corn bread I’ve ever made. The proportion of corn meal to flour for one, and then hardly any sugar. Now having made it I’ve decided southerners have it all right about corn bread, and I prefer this to the usual sweet variety. I like to use one third of the cornmeal as… |

Gluten Free Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Chocolate FrostingWhen you're gluten free, there are certain things that you really miss. Chocolate cake and cupcakes were one of the things Shawn yearned for and I vowed to make them. These are super yummy and will delight everyone, gluten free or not. |
