Caramelized Onion Dip
You know when you go to a holiday party, or get together, for that matter, and there is always that little tub of condensed dip, whether it be a french onion dip, or ranch? Don’t get me wrong now, as I will take a chip and stab it into whatever that dip is, and somewhat […]
Creamed Pearl Onions
I will be the first to admit that I am thankful that Thanksgiving is over. To be honest, I am tired of eating. As much as I love cooking, and eating for that matter, I’m officially stuffed. This past week was packed full of fun, however. Lots of great family time loaded with great conversations, […]
Thai Shallot Sauce
Many of us never think to serve grilled items with a dipping sauce. I know I never did until I experienced Thai food. It was then, and only then that I fell in love with how complex, yet so simple, the flavors became when dipping a bit of grilled beef into this Thai dipping sauce. It […]
Chipotle and Tamarind Sauce
Last week I decided to step away from the office desk and go out and get some fresh air, that and some lunch. Often times I find myself eating lunch at the desk as either I am too busy, or too lazy to get up and get out. Fortunately when I do get a chance […]
Slow Cooker Filipino Pork Adobo
Filipino food is underrated in my opinion. Granted, I’ve only skimmed the surface when it comes to eating legitimate Filipino food, but from what I have had, it is super tasty, well balanced, and extremely comforting. Everything from tinola, arroz caldo, mock sisig, torta, afritada, pancit canton, and bihon, plus who could forget lumpia, and […]
Chicken Cheese Steak Sandwiches
Cheesesteak, or Cheese Steak? Who cares really, because when it comes down to it the cheese steak (yes, I use that one) the sandwich is somewhat of a classic and just a killer sandwich. Now sure, we all know the classic is made from a top round of beef, or thinly sliced rib-eye beef, but […]
Mac and Cheese Burger
Some times I come up with some crazy recipe when I scavenge through my refrigerator. This again is one of those times, and it was all due to some leftover mac and cheese that my kid had his fill on. I wasn’t going to let it go to waste. Who lets mac and cheese go […]
Potato and Ham Frittata
A couple of weeks ago I did what I normally do every Saturday morning, and that is to wake up early, jump on my bike, and head to the farmer’s market. I get the best of both things, riding my bike before most folks are awake, and talking to the farmers at the market. This […]
Wisconsin Bratwurst Pizza
Wisconsin is known for a lot of great things. If you are not familiar with the state of Wisconsin, well, let me just say that it is beautiful. Great state parks, the great lakes, awesome summer festivals, the “Fonz”, Laverne and Shirley, cheese, beer, and let us not forget, brats. That’s right, brats. The infamous […]
Gyro Pizza
Let me start by saying nothing beats a good slice of pizza. A while ago I would have thought that a simple taco, or maybe even a cheese burger would trump a slice of pizza, but I think I am sticking with the pizza. You have probably noticed that I have been making a lot […]
Mexican Picadillo
It was not too long ago when I started to think of a vacation we took years ago to South Carolina. It was a great family trip, and even cousins from the west coast decided to join us as well. Let me just say we had a great time, especially at dinner time when everyone […]
BBQ Pizza
This past Memorial Day weekend was a blast. It was filled with family fun going to a baseball game, a day at the lake, and a birthday party. What could get better than that, right? With that said, I prepared plenty of food for the family to tailgate at the Brewers game, as well as […]
Mushroom, Onion, and Rosemary Pizza
You know me by now, and you know that I love pizza. I love it so much that I have created close to twenty different pizzas, and typically when I make a batch of pizza dough during the week, I try to make a different type of pizza. So this past week when I was […]
Cinco de Mayo Recipes
If you are looking for something to make to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, here are some wonderful, and easy recipes. Click for the recipe, or you can find my collection of Mexican recipes at http://www.simplecomfortfood.com/category/mexican/. ¡Viva, Cinco de Mayo! …
Loaded Pizza Mac and Cheese
I have been on a pizza kick for the past month. Our Friday night fish fry has turned into a call out your own pizza night, and I give credit to extremely easy pizza dough. I’ve said it before, but I love pizza, and everything about it. You can either toss a thin crust, medium […]
Al Pastor Potato Skins
When many people mention they had tacos, or are having tacos, the immediate thought is that they are having tacos, most likely with flour tortillas, or store bought hard shells, loaded with crummy ground beef and a taco seasoning packet. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying there is anything bad with that, but, yes, […]
Caramelized Mushroom and Onion Melt Sandwich
I know there is all this hype around ‘Grilled Cheese Sandwich Month’ going on right now, and I love that people get excited about that. Don’t get me wrong, I am in favor of awesome grilled cheese sandwiches, and I believe melts are right up there with the grilled cheese, heck, they should be in […]
California Club Sandwich
My wife and I are big fans of a club sandwiches. I would even go as far as stripping that down and saying we are big fans of a bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich. There is something to be said about the flavors and textures of a simple BLT, that when you add a couple […]
Salisbury Steak
As I often do, I ask my wife, typically before she has a chance to eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner, what she would like to eat for the day. I’m always hoping she will come up with something I have never made before, but as you might be aware from previous postings, that is rarely […]
Curried Lentils
It was not too long ago where a small group of us went out to dinner in Milwaukee, at a great restaurant called Odd Duck. It was our first time eating there, and we were impressed from the first step into their door. This restaurant is known for small plates, tapa style, to be shared with […]
Middle Eastern Egg Rolls
We are huge fans of egg rolls in my household. Everything from your classic Filipino egg roll, to hot dog egg rolls, Chinese style shrimp egg rolls, heck even Thanksgiving Day egg rolls, Reuben egg rolls and to top them off Mexican egg rolls. You can see, we love egg rolls. There was one idea I […]
Beer Battered Onion Rings
Last week we decided to host some family members and serve a “burger bar”. Basically the serving plates were lined with everything you would want on a burger including bacon, caramelized onions, roasted mushroom, avocado, pickles, lettuce, tomato, raw onion, as well as an array of condiments. I also wanted to provide some homemade french […]
Sonoran Hot Dog
I’ve always been a big fan of hot dogs, and over the last several years fell in love with really good hot dogs, especially Nueske’s style of the hot dog, which they label as a weiner. To me what makes a really great hot dog is its casing, and how it prepared, and to me […]
Tater Tot Casserole
I will be up front with you. My mind works in mysterious ways. It always has, and probably always will. This has always helped, however, in the kitchen when I open a pantry, or refrigerator, and think to myself ‘what in the world am I going to feed these people today?’. Trust me on this, […]
Pizza Nachos
I am a big fan, well, I think my entire family is, of nachos. It’s one of those meals, yes, I said meals, that is easy to throw together and everyone can build their own. We probably have nacho night once every couple of weeks, and it is one of those meals where the kids […]
