The Fourth of July means the summer is just about half over. Oh no! Where has it gone? I better set aside time to have fun and just enjoy the rest of this season. Do you want to join me? [Read more…]
Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t. Sound familiar? That is my relationship with peanut butter cookies. They don’t tumble from our cookie jar very many times a year, but when I crave peanut butter cookies, I must admit the appeal of chocolate and peanut butter seals the deal.
We have all enjoyed one version of these or another but this is my favorite, probably because they are made with butter. [Read more…]
Summer Grilled Chicken with Roasted Tomatoes
Summertime—and in my dreams it is supposed to be lazy and easy. Why isn’t that always the case? Last week I was in North Carolina to attend a special wedding, then we took a couple days to explore the beauty and foods of Charleston, SC. Now home and back to a busy work schedule as Roxanne and I finish up a book manuscript. Wonderful times, yes! Lazy—far from it. It is time for easy, summer recipes! [Read more…]
Ramen Noodle Salad
I’ve never understood folks who refuse to share their recipes with friends and family. This may sound funny coming from someone who writes recipes and receives $$ for those recipes, but let me explain.
Food, family, friends and the kitchen table—that makes for a life with a legacy. Connections, community, laughter and knowing all is well with the world. How much better does it get? Recipes are the link to those traditions, memories and good times. Long after we leave this earth those that love us dearly will make those recipes with fond memories. After the pain of loss, family and friends will cherish those meals that capture the presence of a loved one who has crossed over the rainbow.
My point?! Share your recipes with those you love. If someone requests a recipe, treat the request with the honor it brings. Start your legacy today! [Read more…]
Slow Cooker Caramelized Onions
Stop! Do not push your slow cooker to the back of the cabinet just because summer is coming. Caramelized onions are one of my favorites, especially for summer cooking, and your trusty Crock Pot makes an easy-peasy big bunch.
What do I do with caramelized onions? Let me count the ways. Top grilled burgers. Grilled steaks. Grilled chops. Grilled pork tenderloin. Smoked brisket. Pizza and flat breads of all kinds. Sandwiches. Crostini. Dips. Quiche. Salad. Pasta salad. Vegetable tarts. Need I keep going? [Read more…]
