I need to leave my camera in the kitchen because I keep forgetting to take pictures of new recipes. But you’ve seen enchiladas before, no doubt, so just use your imagination. I wish I knew where I got this so I could give proper credit but I used to save recipes I ran across without…
Cheesy Broccoli Frittata
I’m pretty much tired of food at the moment. This morning I picked up my bi-weekly order of organic produce, went to the grocery store and to the dairy store. I think I now have enough food for the rest of the month with the exception of the next produce order in two weeks and…
Vegetarian Paella…
The first thing I should mention is that I am no Pioneer Woman. My photos are taken with fairly decent Sony digital camera but it’s just a point-and-shoot type. I got Paint Shop Pro for Christmas but haven’t even installed it yet. So the picture above is the result of “Oh, I ought to take…

Hawaiian Meatballs over Rice…
One of my readers asked for this recipe and darn if I can’t find it. I hope whoever asked (anonymous) is one of those *wing it* cooks like I am and can figure this out. Hawaiian Meatballs over Rice: Meatballs: 1 pound ground beefhandful of cracker crumbs or bread crumbs1 beaten eggseasonings to taste (I…
Stoup…
“Stoup…thicker than a soup, thinner than a stew”, as Rachael Ray says. Tonight I made *stoup* in part because I had several items that I wanted to use up. First I sautéed a thinly sliced onion in a bit of olive oil. When softened I added about a tablespoon of brown sugar to help carmelize…
More using stuff up…
I made chicken enchiladas this afternoon so I could send a pan with my parents who are going to see my brother and his family tomorrow (I actually made two pans so Chris is eating some tonight while David and I go out on our *date night*). It was his birthday yesterday and he loves…
