This is the classic “French Onion” soup we know and love. With it’s cheesy, toasty top it’s decadent and delicious on a cold winter’s night. It’s much simpler to make than you might think, yet will be a special treat by all who consume it. I used our wonderful “Candy” onions for this and what […]
We seem to have an abundance of cabbage right now so I started thinking about how I could use some. I made cabbage casserole for Thanksgiving dinner with the family, made veggie soup with some then decided to try and come up with something a little different. Well, this is different alright but oh so delicious, Kenny said it […]

This is a really delicious creamy soup and diffidently worth trying for yourself on […]

I watched Mark Bittman prepare this corn chowder on the Today Show one morning and with all the fabulous corn we had at the farmer’s market this year, I couldn’t wait to try it. One unique step that he does that adds tons of flavor to the broth, is boil the corn cobs in the water. Our […]
A great way to use surplus tomatoes from your garden, or ours… we still have plenty of tomatoes to make this tasty dish. When it comes to savory pies, tomato pie is my favorite by far.
