Roasted Squash Risotto
Risotto is one of those dishes that is not only sexy, but is also comforting. It is a dish that once you have had a good plate of it at a restaurant that you will want to create on your own, and you can. In the past, I have made mushroom risotto which was really delicious, [...]
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, [...]
Garlic Roasted Cauliflower
You have to love it when you come across something to make that is not only incredibly easy to prepare but it one that is extremely delicious as well. That is where this recipe comes into play. Roasted cauliflower. Cauliflower, at first glance, is not a very attractive vegetable and one that gets typically bypassed [...]
Cinnamon and Sugar Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
It’s Halloween time, and I can’t say that my kids are overly excited about trick or treating this year. A sign they are getting older, sure, but other than that, not sure what is going on. It’s candy for crying out loud! But there is one thing that my kids were excited about and that [...]
Porchetta
If you have never heard of porchetta before, well, let me introduce you to it. Pronounced as ‘porketta’, yes, that is a lot of pork, porchetta is basically a whole lot of pork stuffed with a bunch of delicious herbs as well as a bunch more pork. I have been wanting to make porchetta for [...]
The Hot Brown Sandwich
If you have never traveled through Kentucky, well, I am not sure what to tell you. Kentucky is a really beautiful state, and as many of us might know Kentucky for its Bluegrass music, or the Kentucky Derby, or better yet that Abraham Lincoln was born, I know it for the mint juleps and a [...]
Pumpkin Muffins
Years ago, there was a restaurant in my neighborhood called The Atlanta Bread Company. I am fairly certain it is a chain restaurant where it focuses on pastries, coffee, sandwiches, and soups. When the restaurant first opened, I ordered food from there on several occasions,and as it was fairly decent in the first months of opening, [...]
Thanksgiving Day Ideas and Ideas for Leftovers
Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that I truly love. I love the idea of having everyone around a large table, laughing and eating, and ultimately celebrating everyone’s company. It is one of those holidays where people just take it easy and relax. It is also a day where those cooking the meal might get [...]
The Best Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
I don’t know what came over us this fall season. Ever since our youngest was able to walk, our goal was to make it to an orchard, pick a large basket of apples, then take a hayride to pumpkin patch and spend some time finding the right pumpkin. That did not happen this year. As [...]
Thanksgiving Eggrolls
As my favorite holiday comes to a close, and we see our family and friends go away for a while, I still have my mind set on Thanksgiving leftovers. I realize that when many of you are glued to the television watching college and pro football, I sit around and look at the leftovers that [...]
Thanksgiving Cranberry Sauce
As Thanksgiving approaches, my favorite holiday, there comes that time where we all begin thinking about what to make for the family gathering. I say this is my favorite holiday for many reasons. For one, I cannot tell you how excited I get days in advance planning out the menu and compiling all of the [...]
Caramelized Onion and Bacon Gratin
There is something to be said about the smell of caramelized onions, and it is not unusual in my house, to slowly cook caramelized onions at least once a week. I love the low and slow process of watching delicious onions turn into a great dark brown color, which is just packed full of flavor. [...]
Prosciutto and Cedar Wrapped Asparagus Bundles
Recently a great new supermarket opened up in our neighborhood, Sendik’s Food Market. I cannot tell you how thrilled I was to hear that we were finally getting a great market, full of fresh produce, cheese, seafood, and bakery, among other things. So like many, I paid my first visit and was blown away by [...]
Mini Pot Pies
It was not too long ago when I was talking about a deal I encountered at my local grocery store. It was one of those deals that was just hard to pass up. Basically, pay for a ham, and get a bunch of other stuff for free. This included a decent sized turkey breast. When [...]
Chipotle and Honey Glazed Bacon
This bacon could be sold in a candy store as it is just that good! As you know I have been tinkering with bacon for some time now, and for the most part, the experiments have been really amazing, but what bacon isn’t amazing? During the extended holiday break, I was able to experiment a [...]
Turkey Tetrazzini Recipe
I love Thanksgiving. The idea of planning, preparing, and cooking for friends and family is something that I consider to be quiet peaceful and comforting. Granted there is some hustle and bustle cooking for nearly sixteen or more adults, plus all of the kids, but there is some real payoff realizing that you took part [...]
Brussel Sprouts with a Balsamic Reduction
Thanksgiving could possibly be my favorite holiday. It is a time where family comes together and joins around a big table. It is also one of the few times out of the year where I get to bring out the fine chinaware we received nearly ten years ago. It is a comforting and relaxing time, [...]
Glazed Carrots
I will admit it. I love carrots. I have worked on a computer, close to 12 hours a day, for the last 11 years, looking at the screen, moving pixels and code around, that you would think that I should be wearing glasses. Well, I don’t. This surprises me in many ways, but I think [...]
Turkey Club Sandwich with Chipotle Mayonnaise
My turkey is finally gone, and I have to be honest with all of you, I am kind of glad. I’m “turkied out”. Before I close the chapter on this Thanksgiving holiday, I want to end it with a pretty awesome throw together; the turkey club with a kick. It is not often I order [...]
Turkey Pot Pie
If there is something you might want to know about my wife, it is that she loves chicken pot pie. As the thanksgiving holiday slowly passes by, I thought I would do my thing to the turkey pot pie to keep her happy, and comfortable. The pie itself is really quiet simple to make, but [...]
Happy Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving Day Dressing
I typically stuff my turkey each year, but something came across me this year, and I took a different route, and instead, made a dressing. I adapted my wife’s grandmother’s recipe, and made it my own using homemade turkey broth, my own bread, and a handful of other goodies. As I brined my turkey this [...]
Cheesy Potatoes
Over the course of the last several years, my sister-n-law brings these cheesy potatoes to holiday gatherings. She brings the dish because they are really good. I normally get my fill on these potatoes and I am fairly content until she serves them for the next gathering, however this past weekend I had a true [...]
Rosemary Bread
During the Thanksgiving period, I was looking for some great bread to make a panini, or simply eat. This year instead of buying a nice rustic loaf from the breadsmith, I decided to make my own. Bring on the Rosemary bread. This took a few hours, and an overnight process but well worth it. To [...]
Three Mushroom Soup
I wanted to provide a soup and salad to my Thanksgiving meal this year, like most years. Instead of the traditional butternut squash soup with roasted pistachios, I decided to make a soup I did a few years back, the three mushroom soup. I chose this soup because it was not only delicious, but one [...]
