San Antone Black Bean Salad by Amos MillerWith friends and family living in the great state of Texas, my frequent visits have always meant new flavor profiles to experience, new ways to express myself in the kitchen and when I am invited out and asked to 'bring something to pass'.

Uncle Amos' Molasses Cookies by Amos MillerThis is an old stand-by, perfect for the holidays, for winter, for enjoying with a glass of milk, or hot coffee, tea or cocoa. The beautiful thing is that these cookies get better everyday - if you can stand to have them around without consuming them! This is a make-the-dough-one-day and bake-the-cookies-the-next project, so… |

Broccoli, oranges, almonds, raisins, mushrooms, onion & bacon - and a fabulous classic sweet & tangy creamy dressing! Vegetarians can substitute bac-o-bits, or not add a bacon substitute. Throwing together bits and pieces of a variety of items has long been the basis of some great… |

Beef Fajita Best Marinade by Amos MillerThis is fast, simple and super delicious! You should have a very hot (very) cast iron griddle or pan to do this right. I preheat the griddle and simultaneously heat a cast iron serving dish so it goes to table with that distinctive 'sizzle'. Be sure to cut the meat, after it has rested, across the grain and as thin as you can. This… |

Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way by Amos MillerI have always loved mincemeat - pie with vanilla ice cream or cookies and cocoa. This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf… |

Pancake Sunday! by Jesika FeldmanPancakes Sundays are a pretty motivating reason to actually get out of bed on a Sunday. We don't do it every Sunday, but when we do it's always a cheery (and delicious) way to start the day. Having nice warm, fluffy pancakes is especially delightful on a cold winter day. These pancakes are gluten free yet possibly the best I've… |

Chinese Hoisin Sauce by Robyn SavoieThis recipe is easy to make and tastes great. Amounts can be adjusted to suit individual tastes to make it more or less sweet and spicy. Black bean paste can be used in placed of the peanut butter. Goes well with chicken, pork, beef, wild game and dim sum. |

Blueberry Scones by Pam SolomonMmmm, scones are one of my favorite breakfast treats! They are quick and easy to throw together yet taste like a million bucks! This recipe is very similar to a biscuit recipe, just a little more sugar. The texture is very light and tender, they practically melt in your mouth. If you aren't a fan of blueberries simply omit them or… |

Secret Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies by Pam SolomonMmmmm, peanut butter cookies! One of life's simple pleasures. What is it about cookies that makes them so darn appealing? I'm guessing the main reason is obvious, they are just plain delicious! I have never met a cookie I didn't like. What's not to like after all? I used instant pudding mix in this recipe (the secret ingredient). It… |
