McNamara Clans Favorite Chili by Cindy McNamara

Just whipped up a batch of this rich, beefy chili for Super Bowl Sunday. We love to top it with sour cream, avocado, cilantro, shredded cheese, green onion and fried corn tortilla strips. I like a squeeze of lime on mine too. Its always better the second day and makes excellent filling for baked potatoes, burritos or for nachos.

Spicy Lentil & Bean Soup by The Kitchen Magpie - Karlynn Johnston

I have been looking for more ways to serve beans and lentils that aren’t boring, since my non-meat eating son needs protein in his meals. And the fact that they are incredibly healthy for us is a huge bonus as well. Soup is a great way to incorporate lentils and beans into your diet, especially since it is so satisfying in the…

Aunt Dolly's Meat Loaf by Janus Meyer Fanning

My Aunt Dolly would make this for me every time I asked for it...and I asked for it a lot growing up!

Peanut Butter & Banana Wrap Snack by Salad Foodie

A great anytime snack that children can either help make, or make themselves, depending on age. Each ingredient makes a special contribution to this wrap, so try it first as is, then tweak it if you like. Whole wheat tortillas pack a powerhouse of fiber, but you have to check the labels. The tortillas I opt for are 8 1/2 inches…

Banana Nut Cake with Black Walnut Frosting by Salad Foodie

Can't believe my history of baking this cake but it's true! Nearly 50 years ago I begged a school cafeteria for its recipe and it was mine for the asking! It is so easy to make and always a pleaser at pot lucks and bake sales. A unique change of pace from banana bread, the cake has a divinely light texture from buttermilk, and rich…

Japanese “Rare” Cheesecake by Henry Moline

No bake cheesecakes are called “rare cheesecakes” in Japan. It is a soft type of cheesecake and usually gelatin is used to harden the filling. Rare cheesecakes are chilled and served with fresh fruits or fruit sauces. It is a very easy cheesecake to make at home

Succulent Pork Loin Roast by Angel

I'm a self-professed connoisseur of good food. I consider the Pork Loin Roast to be such a delicate, juicy and tasty cut of pork. I love Pork Chops but nothing can touch the roast. Consider serving it with Cornbread Dressing, Cranberry Sauce, Carrot Souffle or Sweet Potato Casserole and your favorite green vegetable to enjoy a most…

Chicken Sausage, Sweet Potato and Kale Soup by Kristy Brazelton

My family loves the potato and sausage soup at Olive Garden. So I made up this soup to try & replace the Olive Garden one with healthier food options. It's really chunky & filling and very tasty served with some fresh chopped italian parsley & fresh grated parmesean on top, if desired.
