Cranberry Waldorf Salad Recipe

Cranberry Waldorf Salad Recipe no mayo

Cranberry Waldorf Salad is a must at our house for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  It is so yummy, I don’t know why we don’t make it more often except that it contains cranberries, and we usually just think of cranberries for the holidays. My sister Sara began making Cranberry Waldorf Salad years ago when she started… [continue reading]

Tuna Ceviche Recipe

In 2013 I had the amazing opportunity to visit Peru with Operation Christmas Child. It was an incredible experience to see how the organization works and be a part of giving children their shoe boxes. Tasting food is always a travel experience I look forward to and the food of Peru did not disappoint! I… [continue reading]

Avocado Salsa

One of our favorite things to make to go with any Mexican or Latin American meal is fresh, chopped Avocado Salsa.  This is very much like Guadalajara Guacamole.  I know most people think of Guacamole as containing smashed avocados, and when made right I love that version also, but chopped avocado Guacamole is my first… [continue reading]

Chicken Tortilla Casserole

Chicken Tortilla Casserole is comfort food.  When I was growing up my mom made several versions of tortilla casseroles, and I loved all of them.  This casserole I put together is slightly different from my mother’s recipe.  It’s a quick and easy version especially if you keep cooked or shredded chicken on hand like I… [continue reading]

Irish Coddle Recipe

As I was looking for a main dish for my St. Patrick’s Day meal I found Coddle.  I read several recipes, but I liked bits and pieces from many so I decided rather than follow a recipe I put together my own.  That’s the fun of creating recipes isn’t it? It turned out to be… [continue reading]

Easy Chocolate Fondue Recipe

I’ve been making this for several years.  It is just so easy, and I usually have the ingredients on hand. What you need: 12 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips (I like it dark, but you could use milk chocolate if you prefer.) 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (adding more as it thickens) Many recipes call for… [continue reading]

How to Make the Best Chicken Quesadillas

“Chicken Quesadillas.   It’s a pet peeve of mine.  A quesadilla is a tortilla with cheese.  If you put chicken in it, it ceases to be a quesadilla. It’s like putting a slice of cheese between two buns and calling it a hamburger. BUT in an effort to show that I can conform, on occasion,… [continue reading]

Chilaquiles Recipe

This is actually my mom’s version of Chilaquiles. In Mexico where we learned to eat them, they don’t deep fry the tortillas, just brown in oil. They use fresh tomatoes with onions and chiles blended. They let the tortillas get soggy. I prefer the tortillas crisp, but of course the sauce made with fresh ingredients… [continue reading]

Peach Pie

It’s that time!  Texas peaches are ripe!  It’s a mad rush to bring them in because the critters outside steal them isn’t it?  Don’t have a tree in your back yard? No problem! You can find them galore in the grocery stores right now and they are GOOD! Truth be told I’m not a huge… [continue reading]
