Here’s a Valentine’s Day recipe to try, if you dare. I made it the other night for fun and out of desperation, not having gotten to the store yet for supplies–but Kim and Aidan had been to the Enlow’s (formerly organic) farm. (Mississippi changed it’s regulations on how to be organically certified, so our onlyContinue reading “Ginger Beets and Soba Noodles”

Garlic Mashed Potato Recipe
Tonight we had leftovers from Chistmas, but since the garlic mashed potatoes were so popular, we needed to make more, so I duplicated the recipe I created the other day. Undoubtedly this has been done before by others, but here’s how I decided to make them. Ingredients: Yukon Gold Potatoes (or other potatoes for mashing)Continue reading “Garlic Mashed Potato Recipe”
Vegetarian Dressing (not stuffing) Recipe
This year for Christmas dinner, my extended family agreed to humor the vegetarians and allow me to make vegetarian dressing to go with their turkey. This recipe is based on my mother-in-law’s cornbread dressing recipe with a few alterations like leaving out the chicken or turkey, and leaving out the cream of celery soup, whichContinue reading “Vegetarian Dressing (not stuffing) Recipe”
Broccoli Casserole Recipe
It has turned cold again in Mississippi. Okay, I know it’s not really cold, even though we had a chance of snow last night and it’s supposed to get down below freezing tonight. That’s nothing for most of the country, but for Mississippi, it seems like winter is knocking at our door, and it’s aContinue reading “Broccoli Casserole Recipe”
Twice Baked Bread
This is not a recipe I plan to replicate anytime soon! In fact, I’d probably classify it as a major mistake, but it turned out pretty good in the end, so I thought I’d write about it. The mistake was to put the bread dough I was making in the oven to rise, and sinceContinue reading “Twice Baked Bread”
Comfort Food: Pumpkin Bread
Everyone has their own ideas about comfort food. I know I certainly have my old stand-by’s, dishes that I gravitate to when I need that little something extra. Often those are the foods of our childhood, but now and then we find new ones. Risotto is one of our faves for its rich, creamy texture,Continue reading “Comfort Food: Pumpkin Bread”
Muscadine Sherbet
I’ll admit it; I really ought to measure when making up new recipes, but I rarely do. Today was no exception. Having some muscadine grapes from the farmer’s market that really needed to be used, I decided to boil 2-3 cups of them in a cup or less of water. I filled a pan halfContinue reading “Muscadine Sherbet”
Basic Bread
I have been baking bread for over a quarter century, so it always comes as a bit of a surprise when people talk about how difficult it is (though it shouldn’t surprise me by now). There is a mystique to baking bread, and yet it is one of the most basic and essential foods. AndContinue reading “Basic Bread”
Peach Frozen Buttermilk
Recently I stumbled upon this concoction that has become our favorite desert. It is incredibly easy to make and tastes delicious. I know many people don’t think buttermilk is edible if it’s not baked in something, but I use it in all kinds of things, such as adding it to a cream sauce for aContinue reading “Peach Frozen Buttermilk”
