Here is a superb meal for anytime, but makes an incredible buffet offering. I recently had this at our school luncheon buffet and it was very tasty and filling. Brigitte, who is an incredible cook, made it and as you can see by the picture, it is moist and inviting! It is perfect for a [...]

I am one of those people that love their veggies. I usually try to eat them in their natural state and add little to them. Some might say that is boring but I know that it is a healthier way to eat them. However, once in a great while, usually for a holiday meal, I [...]

Gadzukes! Zucchini is ready. It amazes me how fast these squashes grow. One day they are not quite ready and the next they are the size of baseball bats on steroids. There are so many uses for this fruit, though it is treated like a vegetable. It can be prepared using a variety of cooking [...]

Fiddleheads are now in season! I was able to purchase these at a local farm stand. These delicate greens may be used as a side dish, salad, garnish, or even a meal! They remind me of aspargus and green beans are prepared in much the same manner. They are high in vitamin A and are [...]

Leftover ham? Here is a great way to use it up. I had an incredible tasting ham for Easter and way too much left over. I decided to make a ham and pasta salad as we wanted something different for dinner. Very easy to make and makes a perfect dinner or lunch, light yet still [...]

Here is a great recipe for an appetizer. Easter is on the way and if you need an appetizer here is one that will be prepared in a crock pot, leaving the stove for dinner preparation. It is very easy to follow but don’t let that fool you into thinking that it is less of [...]

Today is one of those rainy spring days:cold and raw. There is one sure fire way to warm up and that’s to make soup. I had thawed some chicken for dinner and decided that a nice soup cooking would fill the house with an aromatic scent. I recently booked a trip to Mexico and couldn’t [...]

I love vegetables. I couldn’t always say that and truly mean it, but I have found that they are a way for me to maintain my weight and that I actually crave them. Don’t get me wrong, I also love cake, cookies, ice cream, and candy, but I have found a way to include them [...]

One of my favorite meals is a salad made with field greens. I frequently go to Atkins Farms which isn’t a farm, but rather a type of market that has a wide variety of fruits, meats, etc. and is situated Amherst, MA. Love the ride, feel, and products found there. They also have a great [...]
