German Style Red Cabbage With Apples

Cabbage is second only to the potato in my book! I love cabbage any way you make it and this is at the top of my list! 2 Tbsp bacon fat 1 Medium head red cabbage, sliced 1/4 inch thick 2 Apples, peeled and sliced 1 Sweet onion, sliced 1/2 […]

Old Fashioned Back Yard Ham and Cheese Pasta Salad

I remember eating this at church potlucks in Michigan! I love this pasta salad and make it every summer. You can change it up in many ways. 1 lb Ditalini pasta, cooked and rinsed 1 Small onion, chopped fine 1/2 Red bell pepper, chopped fine 8 oz Colby jack or […]

Brazilian Cheesy Bread (Pao de Queijo)

This is hands down, one of my favorites! I love the Brazilian steakhouse in Scottsdale, Fogo De Chao. I found so many recipes (and made so many!) and each had different oils and cheeses but none tasted like Fogo De Chao. One of the times I was there I asked […]

Chocolate Chip Icebox Cookies

An Archway copycat of sorts! I loved the Archway chocolate chip icebox cookies growing up and since they have been discontinued, I have been working on a copycat recipe. After lots of batches and a huge mess, here they are! They are super yummy and perfectly dunkable! Yields about 30 […]

Red Enchilada Sauce (Pressure Canning)

This enchilada sauce is perfect and as close to Ajo Al’s as I can get it! You can adjust the heat by picking hot or mild peppers or a mix of both. I like it spicy, but not too spicy!

This sauce is delicious on muffins, quick breads, fruit and ice cream desserts, between the layers of cake, in fruit tarts…… I guess I find lots of uses for oranges when they are in abundance (Spring) where I live!

Pumpkin Bread

The taste of Autumn in your first bite! I have been making this bread every Autumn for almost 30 years now and still love this recipe!

Nonny’s Zucchini Bread

Many a summer day, I spent eating this zucchini bread with a big smear of butter, at Nonny’s farmhouse table. Now a permanent summer staple on my table!
