Chili with Beans for Recipe Friday

More snow storms are on the way on the east coast, and it’s not all the warm here in the Pacific Northwest, either. Winter still has a way to go before spring arrives. So here’s my chili recipe to go with it to warm you...

Toad in the Holes for Recipe Friday

This recipe is what we had for breakfast on Christmas morning. We talked about having French Toast, but we all agreed we had eaten enough sweets lately and didn’t really want something sweet for breakfast; especially since there was pecan pie for dessert later. I...

Baked Chicken Strips for Recipe Friday

Shepherd’s Pot Pie for Recipe Friday

This is a new recipe that I just came up with the other night. I had purchased a roll of pre-made polenta at the store. I know, if you’re a purist you would cook your own polenta, but life’s too short and this stuff is...
