Bratwurst and Potato Soup

Bratwurst and Potato Soup

Easy to make and delicious to eat, this Bratwurst and Potato Soup is the perfect stick-to-your-ribs fall or winter meal. What to do with bratwurst besides stick it in a bun and top it with peppers and onions, is a question that I have thought to myself on more than one occasion. I love using bratwurst as a delicious change of pace from Italian sausage.  We love our ...

Braised Chicken Thighs with Spinach and White Beans

Braised Chicken Thighs with Spinach and White Beans

Braised Chicken Thighs with Spinach and White Beans is a comforting autumn dish that is easy to pull together any day of the week. The first taste of Fall arrived this morning. 62 degrees with the highs only getting to the mid-70s sometime this afternoon. I am not complaining one little bit. After several weeks of 90 degree weather every day this is a much needed respite ...

Old Fashioned Pot Roast

Old Fashioned Pot Roast

Old Fashioned Pot Roast takes a little while to make, but the flavor and the tenderness of the beef and vegetables make it all worth the effort. It seems like folks these days are so interested in quick and easy that they forget how delicious slow and steady can be. Don't get me wrong. Quick and easy plays a significant roll in my nightly dinner line up. We often have ...

Garden Fresh Chow Chow

Garden Fresh ChowChow

  I love love love to can. If I loved cleaning as much as I love canning, my house would sparkle.

So far, the only thing in the house with cute little labels is all of m canning projects. My new favorite canning project is this chow-chow. It's ...

Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers with Red Onion Marmalade

Blue Cheese Burgaers with Red Onion Marmalade

Memorial Day weekend for many is the rope drop for Summer. I don't even have to look at the calendar to know when Memorial day weekend is, I can tell it's close by the throngs of cars parked on the side of the road by the creek just above me. Come Memorial Day, screams of terror followed by a loud splash fill my yard as teenager after teenager jump off J.H. Barber bridge. And ...

Tex Mex Tortilla Salad

Tex Mex Tortilla Salad

It seems I have gone AWOL from this poor little blog lately. These things happen. For the last month, we have been hopping from one activity to another. Dance and T-Ball on Monday, Taekwondo on Tuesday and Thursday, T-Ball again on Friday. Of course there is also work at the winery, writing for the newspaper, and lets not forget laundry. The never ending laundry. The garden is ...

Alphabet Soup

ABC Soup

There hasn't been much of a winter down here in Tennessee. Take yesterday for example. It was 64 degrees outside! In the middle of February!  This weather is just crazy. We have had the odd day or two of really cold temperatures. We actually had some snow last week...briefly. I took that opportunity to make this recipe that I have been thinking about for a couple of weeks ...

Pizza Pasta and the Incredible Shrinking Woman

Happy New Year! I'm only about 2 weeks late on that one. I hope 2012 has gotten off to as good a start for you as it has for me. For the first time...ever I think...I have stuck to my resolutions so far. The most exciting part? I've lost 5 pounds. WooHoo! Five down, 25 to go. I've been putting a lot of focus on not eating like a pig and not drinking like a fish, both of which ...

Spicy Black Eye Pea Salad

Spicy Black Eye Pea Salad

I consider myself a good Southerner and I tend to stick to tradition as much as anyone when it comes to welcoming in a new year. I never hang up my new calendar for the new year until January 1st ( much to my daughter's chagrin) and I always eat my black eye peas on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. That's not to say that I get up and particularly look forward to eating a big ...

Lemon Roasted Chicken Drummies

Lemon Roasted Chicken Drumsticks

  I am so tired of the rain. The last 3 weeks have had more rainy days than sunny ones here in Middle Tennessee and just last week many of our creeks and streams broke their banks and flooded roads and fields. Rainy days do have up sides. My garden certainly appreciates the rain and being stuck inside means that I am forced to do some cleaning. Not to mention rainy days are my ...

My thoughts on Food Magazines and Baked Chicken Fajitas

Baked Chicken Fajitas

Baked Chicken Fajitas are suuuppper easy to whip together for a delicious weeknight meal. And its healthy too!      I don't buy food magazines very often. Those things are so expensive. I have a hard time paying $10 for a monthly publication which is mostly ads and recipes I will never cook. I also have a hard time throwing them away. I mean I paid $10 for that thing! I am ...

Tuna Tuesday: Wasabi Tuna Sushi

Wasabi Tuna Sushi

It's Tuesday and that means... TUNA TUESDAY! WooHoo! I have really begun to look forward to these posts. It's a lot of fun to try to come up with different ways to use a can of meat. I have also been exploring the canned meat aisle in the grocery store to see what other kinds of options there are. It is quite surprising to see the variety that is offered. I am still ...

Cheesy Tuna Corn Chowder

Creamy Tuna and Corn Chowder

The ultimate pantry meal that also happens to be pretty delicious. Keep this one in your back pocket for those cold winter months when heading to the grocery is impossible and eating out of the pantry is a must. The South is completely frozen. We are all covered in at least a couple inches of ice. School is closed, the mail hasn't run, and we are all beginning to go a little ...
