Our Favorite Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher

It’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…

Dill Potato Salad by B Innes

In general for potato salads you want a low starch potato, ideally if you can find them fingerlings, if not then small red potatoes or even in a pinch Yukon golds. The small red potatoes are easy for me to find so I use them in just about all my recipes, unless of course I can find the fingerlings at the green grocers.

Easy Manhattan Clam Chowder by B Innes

Although fresh is best, it is a chore to open and chop so many calms and in many places they are not easy to find, so using canned ingredients is certainly acceptable. I think that the two secrets to a great Manhattan clam chowder are a great clammy taste and a lot of thyme. This recipe will give you both with easy to use items…

To follow that up Patti made strawberry rhubarb crisp. All kissed with…

New York Cheesecake by B Innes

Hands down this is my all time favorite dessert. The unique thing about this recipe is that you can with an easy substitution make this two ways. My personal favorite is the thick dense stick to the roof of your mouth cheesecake, a slightly lighter a little less dense and more airy result is a simple substitition of whipped cream…

Tuna Steak Marinated and Grilled by B Innes

This is such a simple recipe with outstanding results everytime. Grilled Marinated Tuna Steak is one of my favorite fish dishes. The standard marinade I use is just sliced fresh ginger and soy sauce, or in place of the ginger sliced fresh garlic. That's it and the flavors that are absorbed by the tuna make an unforgetable meal.…

Ceviche Tuna Mangotini by Chef Paul McGovern

This is a great dish I use fresh yellow fin tuna caught in the New England waters in the summer . Lots of my friends have boats and will bring me fresh fish then I do the cooking ! Its a good trade off and everyone is happy.

Short Rib's My Way by Chef Paul McGovern

I love short ribs but every where I go they cook them to death !! For some reason all places and Chefs like to braise them for hours in all types of heavy sauces. I think that this is one of the best cuts of meat and has the flavor of a great ribeye. The down side is that they are hard to get right. You need to have them at room…

Double Butter Bundt Cake by Salad Foodie

Moist and rich, this unfrosted Bundt cake is versatile as a stand-alone snack with tea or coffee, or as a pastry base for ice cream or strawberry shortcake. The “double butter” name comes from butter as the shortening, along with buttermilk as the liquid (see NOTE below for using regular milk instead.) The cake travels well to…
