September 12, 2010 | No Comments »
I’ve been in kind of “not sure what I feel like eating” slump so I went through a stack of recipes that I have not tried, and found this frittata, which after reading the recipe and changing it up, knew that it would pair well with tortillas, fresh salsa, and Read the rest of this entry »
Shrimp and Andouille Gumbo
August 28, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Gumbo, one of the oldest dishes in Louisiana, is undoubtedly the most famous! A soup that is thick and rich with
vegetables, rice, meat and/or seafood. I found this recipe on the back of a Niman Ranch Andouille Sausage label and decided to try it. I will be making it again tonight for the second time in two weeks (it was that GOOD), however I am going to add Read the rest of this entry »
Red Curry Pork with Red Peppers
July 25, 2010 | No Comments »
Who doesn’t love curry? My husband is well….so so. We have had this dish twice in the last two weeks and he’s like
yeah it’s ok, or yeah, it’s pretty good. He’s slowly converting himself. I thought it was really good, and very easy to put together. It was served in a big soup bowl over a heaping spoonful of Read the rest of this entry »
Stuffed Bell Peppers

My friend Rose shared with me her version of stuffed bell peppers, with ground ham (as opposed to ground beef). The timing could not have been better since we were feasting on a left over spiral ham from our mothers day party. My leftover ham was a smoked ham, Read the rest of this entry »
Baked Ziti
March 27, 2010 | No Comments »
This is a classic italian dish that everyone loves. I’ve made it a few times already in the last couple of months, and each time it was better and better, especially for left overs. Ziti pasta is a thick long tube, about 18 inches long, that is broken into pieces before it is cooked. Of course the ziti pasta that we buy today Read the rest of this entry »
LooLoo’s Meatloaf
March 1, 2010 | No Comments »
One of the main reasons I make a meatloaf is so I can have meatloaf sandwiches for left overs. There is nothing better than meatloaf on toasted wheat bread with just a little mayo!! This recipe is a concoction of a few different recipes that I combined from a very old cook book that came with my husband, (he bought it in 1978). Read the rest of this entry »
Cantonese Back Ribs

Who doesn’t love baby back ribs, so meaty and so delicious! We were so excited to find this recipe because they don’t require a barbeque, you bake them, which means we get to enjoy these scrumptious ribs during the rainy season. Read the rest of this entry »
Sheboygan Sandwiches

If you never tried a sheboygan sandwich, you don’t know what your missing!! After attending numerous Giants baseball games at the A T & T park, the exciting experience is always completed with a sheboygan sandwich. Honestly I don’t understand why anyone would order an ordinary hot dog, just the smell alone of the sheboygan makes my mouth water. The name sheboygan, originated from where this pork bratwurst is actually Read the rest of this entry »
Beef and Spinach Casserole

I was on the lookout for a casserole that I could bring to a friend’s house, and I remebered this recipe from a cook book (sunset) that I have had for years and years, since 1978 to be exact! I really liked this beef and spinach casserole because it is can be made any time of the year, delicious either hot or cold. The meat sauce is simmered in red wine which adds so much Read the rest of this entry »
Asparagus Salad with Crispy Bacon
July 14, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Sometimes were hungry for just a light meal at dinner time, and this was one of those nights. I had been eyeing this recipe from my sunset magazine, but decided to change it up by adding crispy bacon! I have to say this “asparagus salad with crispy bacon” was delightfully fresh and completely satisfying for our light meal, that I served with crusty french bread. You’d be amazed at all the health benefit’s of asparagus; great for your heart, great Read the rest of this entry »
