Classic Wedge Salad with Parmesan Peppered Dressing

Posted by Kathy on February 16, 2015

Even in the dead of winter, I long for a salad. Yet, all of those tender spring greens seem like a hazy dream.

Posted by Kathy on February 3, 2015

My family has a current guilty food passion right now. It really is ooey, gooey good so throw caution aside and dig in.

January is a great time to snuggle in. Build a fire, turn on the television, work on a puzzle or play a game and just enjoy family time.

Then, suddenly cabin fever hits and it seems it would be fun to plan a game night, movie night or watch a football game and invite some friends. (Yes, that super big football game will be here in a couple weeks and you have to plan something to serve while watching the game or critiquing the commercials.) [Read more…]

Bean and Bacon Soup

Posted by Kathy on January 6, 2015

It’s cold. Really cold. The holiday rush is over, the decorations are stored away and I want to cocoon. When cold winds howl, who doesn’t want to stay in and keep warm? On some nights, for me, that means cooking from what I have on hand and not running to the grocery store. Do you ever feel that way?

Even though its super cold, I am excited about the New Year, for our new book, The Newlywed Cookbook, Cooking Happily Ever After is now on store shelves. (Roxanne announced it and popped the Champagne last week!) We are thrilled and are looking forward to cooking recipes from the book, teaching classes and sharing tips that help newlywed couples start a lifetime of great cooking. What to register for and how to use those items, plus recipes for quick dinners to special dishes that create wonderful meals together and build lifelong memories.

The recipe was a hit and the most requested recipe after my party. No, it wasn’t the appetizers or desserts, it was a salad. What a surprise!

My daughter enjoyed this Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad at a work gathering and shared the recipe with me. Sure enough, all who tasted it wanted the recipe. I am not sure who to credit for the original recipe, but I am sure happy it came my way and glad to share it with you. [Read more…]
