The first time around in making it I was tempted to tweak it using less sugar and oil. Good thing I didn't - Lou Seibert Pappas had it perfectly balanced for the masses in her "A Harvest of Pumpkins and… |

Mediterranean Beef Minestrone Soup by Salad FoodieThis feeds a crowd and then some. Hearty and healthy. Start this slow simmering soup early afternoon to have it ready for dinner, so there's time to develop the flavors. Or better yet, cook a day in advance and let the flavors sing next day. I take time to cut the meat and veggies in small pieces as this is a soup, not a stew, and the… |

The chicken and beans give this soup the comfort food satisfaction we crave in cooler fall weather. If you reduced the broth this would become white chili, but we opt instead for it as a soup. Note that the beans are undrained on… |

Asian-style Deep Fried Chicken Wings by A.L. WiebeI have been making this version of chicken wings for years now, and they are always a hit. This is just the basic marinade recipe, so depending on my mood, I spice them up some with extra Sriracha sauce, maybe some garlic. Do what makes you happy, but enjoy and have fun with it. *P.S. this will likely destroy your deep-fry oil, so… |
