As much as we try, it’s not always possible to completely avoid the cold or flu some seasons. This broth will provide you with some herbal comfort when you’re ill. It’s flavorful, warming, and packed with vitamins that will help your body battle whatever bug has bitten you.
Fresh Peach Cobbler
I made this for the volunteers on Tuesday night and it received rave reviews. I managed to save Kaylee a serving, and she said that it was “Amazing!”
Harvest Bread
Canadian Thanksgiving is a celebration of harvest, and what I found referenced over and over again was Harvest Bread. This is an awesome project kids can enjoy creating, shaping the dough into a plait or a wheatsheaf.
Amazingly Simple Stuffed French Toast
I heard someone on Twitter say they use their George Foreman grill to make panini sandwiches, and I immediately thought about stuffed French toast. One morning, I tried it, and it was amazing, and so easy!
Easy Kid-Friendly Fish Sticks
This dish took no time to put together. I used tilapia, because that’s what I had on hand, but just about any white fish will do. The kids loved it, and they loved helping me make it.
Hearty Sweet Potato & Black Bean Hash
I saw someone reference a sweet potato hash a few months ago, and I thought that sounded really good, so I came up with a recipe. This was so good. It was hearty enough to be the main dish of a meal.
Honey Sweetened Grape Jelly with Homemade Apple Pectin
I’m not all that crazy about growing my own fruit, being careful about the source of the food I buy, carefully preparing to preserve such fruit, then having to preserve it with a box of Sure-Jel off the store shelf. So I researched how to make my own pectin, and it turns out apples are the answer. I have an apple tree just dripping with apples right in my front yard.
Fresh Peach Pie with Whole Wheat Crust
Peaches just taste like summertime to me. I had a big basket of peaches recently and wanted to capture some of that summer sunshine for dessert that night, so I made a fresh peach pie as if it were an apple pie. It was amazing.
Your Girls and Mine Greek Pasta Salad
My friend Shannon is doing a fundraiser for Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. She graciously agreed to do a guest post on my blog that included this recipe. It is a delicious, garden fresh recipe that includes pasta from Fun Pasta.
Savory Traditional Chicken Tamales
Gregg judges a Mexican restaurant by their tamales. If they aren’t hand made, steamed in a corn husk, with the right flavors, he simply won’t go back to that restaurant. It took me several years to even attempt a recipe for tamales, and I was so excited to find one that he loves.
