Cauliflower Bisque with Brown Butter Croutons

I wish I had a really high-powered mixer. 😦 I use my immersion blender a lot, especially for soups, but it can only blend so much. This soup was pretty good. The croutons were great! The soup ended up being … Continue reading

Corn Cake Stacks with Aged Cheddar and Arugula

These were good! There is nothing to this batter, so I thought for sure the cakes would fall apart, but they didn’t! My kids didn’t like these (surprisingly), but Toby and I did. With the cheese on top, these cakes … Continue reading

Baked Macaroni

I am kind of a mac-n-cheese snob. I am very particular about it. I was a little wary of trying this one. I mean, Cheez-Its?? Pimiento peppers? Onion??? But I figured I would try it. My kids liked it, and … Continue reading

Fried Green Beans

I like green beans, and especially when they are fried! I know, I know, anything fried is unhealthy, but dang, these were good! I didn’t use the FOUR CUPS OF OIL the recipe calls for, so I think that’s why … Continue reading

Beth’s Squash Casserole

I love just about any kind of squash. My husband doesn’t. He will eat the Faux Crab Cakes I make with zucchini, and that’s about it. It’s all about the texture with him (or so he says). But he really … Continue reading

Tomato-Cheddar Strata with Broccoli

Well, I can add stratas to the list of foods I shall never attempt again. I have never had luck with these bread dishes. They get all brown and crunchy on top and you think they are done, but in … Continue reading

Pumpkin-Ricotta Stuffed Shells

These were really good, but I think I should have chosen another tomato sauce and it would have been better. I just can’t seem to find a prepared pasta sauce that I love! There’s one that’s really good (Bertolli, maybe?), … Continue reading
