These banana bread cookies are perfect with your morning coffee or afternoon tea. I’ve never been much of a baker…until recent years. I started baking my own cookies, scones and quick breads or muffins on a regular basis because I love baked goods but I literally can’t stomach the store bought kind. They’re way to […]
When I want something quick, flavorful, and substantive without having to make a full meal…I simply put an egg on it. This time it’s Sautéed Cabbage and Bacon! Easy Peezy and sooooo good. This time I dressed this simple dish with sweet peppers. Makes great leftovers too. Ingredients – 4 servings 1/2 small cabbage […]
This is what was for dinner last night…biscuits and sausage gravy…Italian style. My daughter is visiting from LA and this is one of her favorite dishes. It’s a Southern classic but perfect for an autumn evening in New England. And makes for an easy, quick weeknight meal. You wouldn’t think so because you may […]
I can’t say it enough…simple things make the most satisfying meals…like these home fried topped with eggs…or should I say…an egg. Eggs sound better for a title.

I admit it! I’m obsessed with breakfast cookies…especially these oatmeal, banana, chocolate chip ones. They’re a cross between a muffin, a cookie and a bowl of oatmeal in every bite.

I was delightfully surprised at how satisfied I was eating this. No recipe needed! Simply cut […]
Whenever my hunger is stronger than my patience to cook something time consuming, I reach for eggs when I need something tasty that will fill me up, fast! These eggs, poached in a spicy tomato sauce goes a bit further than plain old fried eggs…they wake up the taste buds and satisfy the demands […]
I’ve found myself a new obsession…granola bars! Believe it or not, I’ve never made granola before, but the other day I saw a Youtube video of a young schoolgirl in Norway doing a cooking video of healthy snacks to take to school and this teenager inspired me to go out a buy a bunch […]
It just so happens that it’s just as easy to make a frittata big enough to feed a crowd of eight or more, as it is to feed just one. So if I have unexpected guests at home or if I simply want to use up a bunch of ingredients in my fridge, a […]
I along with many others in the foodie world am having a love affair with brussel sprouts. For me it started this past Thanksgiving when I made them as side dished and in a stuffing. But the love affair has continued into this spring and this easy recipe which I served as a side […]
