Confession time: I love bread. Do you? Do your kids? Any kind is satisfying. Rye, honey wheat, flaky rolls, dense biscuits, crispy, soft, etc. Seriously, I could eat bread for every meal of the day. Although it’s tasty, I know that kind of eating style isn’t a participant of a healthy or balanced diet. It’s …
“You’re crazy for making homemade beans when you can literally just buy them in a can!” That’s what I used to say. Maybe you feel the same way. But then I ate homemade black beans and the taste was significantly better. And then I discovered that purchasing dry beans was a fraction of the cost …
At the end of the month, the grocery budget has become slim. It’s time to eat out of the freezer and pantry, to finish up extra ingredients before the new month begins. At that time of the month, I tend to cook a variety of meatless meals, like pasta, tacos with black beans, vegetable stir …
Confession: I cook some variation of Mexican-American food at least once per week…sometimes twice per week. Last week I made a fresh batch of homemade black beans, so we ate them early in the week. Like always, I make enough to freeze the extras; this week I also reserved the juice, which was the perfect …

As Spring turns to Summer, my cooking shifts from dried Winter herbs to tropical sauces – like these pork chops and pineapple slices in a thick Hawaiian sauce! Normally these type of sauces are created as a marinade, and then the meat is grilled. But I haven’t prepared my grill for the change of seasons …
Sometimes I’m in an earthy mood, where I crave the rich flavors of herbs. And not just a sprinkle of rosemary or a dash of basil, but a dish loaded with a blend of herbs. Which led me to the creation of Italian herb chicken. I gathered my favorite herbs on the counter: oregano, basil …
When I say “meatball,” what comes to mind (aside from a visual image of a meatball)? I have fond memories of eating meatballs as a child. My mom would make all sorts, from grape jelly to brown gravy to marinara sauce to ketchup. I realized after a few years of living on my own that …
Crescent rolls used to be a weekly purchase from the grocery store. Are they a common staple for your family too? They are fluffy and flakey and so easy to make for dinner. Yum! Have you ever considered baking a homemade version? Yes, it will take a bit more time. (Although please tell me I’m …

Have you ever noticed how versatile quinoa is?

It can be consumed as a seed or boiled for …

What’s your favorite comfort food? That meal you dream about on a dreary day, or when you’re missing home, or when you reminisce about days past? For me, it’s chicken pot pie. It reminds me of being a teenager on a day off of school. My mom would serve chicken pot pie to me and …
What is your favorite ingredient to cook with? I have three ingredients that I never run out of: pesto, olive oil, and cream of mushroom/chicken/celery/anything soup. When I first became a chef in my home’s kitchen, casseroles were my specialty. And 9 times out of 10, the base of my casserole was a creamy soup. …
Does you family have a veggie that is always in your house? For us, it’s bell peppers and carrots. Both of them are refreshing snacks, pair well with dips, and stay fresh longer than most other vegetables. When it’s nearly time for another grocery store run, I make stuffed peppers. I have the peppers, grains, …
Mouthwatering, moist, herb-crusted, just right! Yum. That’s only a hint at how this lamb is more than a slam dunk or a homerun out of the park. My husband and I were kid free for a weekend so we planned a fun date night at home. Find yourself in need of a date night, too? …
Two of our friends made the cross-country move from Oregon to Tennessee a couple of years ago. They lived with us for 2 months while they were house hunting. During that season we shared the kitchen, cooked meals together, and spent many joyful evenings around the dinner table. One of the best things about that …
Once a month we like to have a fancy dinner at home. Sometimes it’s a candlelight dinner. Other times it involves a special food such as steak or lamb. Other times it’s foreign cuisine. Most of the time it’s international food for a themed meal. Last month my husband was in the mood for French …
I have a passion for potatoes. Red, white, gold – no matter the color, I love them. Baked, boiled, smashed or crispy, they are delicious. (Can anybody relate? Do your kids at least agree with me?) Due to my recent love affair with potatoes, we eat them about twice per week in our house. But, …
I will never forget the day when I was a teenager and my mom declared, “I want to make homemade chips.” But not any kind of chips. I was thinking barbecue, sour cream and onion, or salt and vinegar potato chips. She wanted to make kale chips. “Eww, gross!” I responded, “Why would you make …
Autumn is rapidly progressing to Winter. I miss the brightly colored leaves, crisp air, and vibrant produce. I’m still buying the Fall veggies because I can’t get enough of them! I had half of a butternut squash still in my produce drawer, waiting to be enjoyed. I had already planned to make curry this week. …
On busy weeknights, I rely on my crockpot. Let me guess, your house runs the same way when the schedule is full? Usually I have some spare time in my mornings to assemble the meal and prep ingredients. But last week was jam packed. So I was struggling to get dinner on the table. I …
My husband and I love tasting foods from across the globe. One night we decided that we were in the mood for Scandinavian food. Uh…what exactly is considered to be Scandinavian cuisine? We had no idea. Naturally, we went to the internet. After looking at various recipes, I stumbled upon the concept of Finnish Pancakes. …
As a kid, it was a special day when Mom made breakfast for dinner! I remember receiving a plate loaded with a huge waffle. (It was a normal-sized waffle, but it sure looked giant to my childhood eyes.) I would drizzle on the warm syrup and sprinkle fruit on top. Then I would consume the …

Growing up, my mom would go through cravings for take-out Asian cuisine. We visited the same local joint run by a kind, friendly Asian family.

The first time I visited my in-laws (way back when my husband had only been my boyfriend for 2 months), they made this delicious pork tenderloin. I was impressed with their cooking, their son, and them in general! The next time we visited over fourth of July, they had a backyard party and fireworks. …
A few years ago one of my friends had a child who happened to be allergic to everything: soy, eggs, dairy, gluten, and a handful of other things. She had to drastically restrict her family’s diet. It went okay for a little while…until she couldn’t have chocolate! That was the last straw for her. She …
