I have been working on this recipe for some time to have it come out moist and tender, with just the right balance of citrus to sweet. Lest you all think that these things come out perfect the first time, some of my attempts didn't go over well with my main recipe tester, DH. Last …

Oysters!
One of the best things about visiting the coast, is all the seafood you can eat. I love seafood especially shellfish, and spent the week eating as many oysters as I could, along with shrimp, scallops and crab too. The Pamlico Sound is home to a huge shellfish and fishing industry and I certainly wanted …

Today is another silly holiday, it is National Garlic Day! This is an ingredient I love using. Chopped up garlic sauteed with onions is the beginning to many a great meal.

Ham Dinner and a Ham Casserole
I would imagine that many of us are serving a baked ham today, moist and delicious!! I bake mine a bit differently using my slow cooker sometimes or a parchment cover in the oven, slow cooking for 30 minutes per pound at 250 degrees. I used to use paper bags from the grocery store, but …
Dinosaur Eggs for Easter – a healthy alternative

Panko Crusted Deviled Turkey Breast
One of my favorite things to do is to cook for guys. It is fun to prepare something hearty and flavorful, and watch it disappear with second helpings. Recently, I had one of my husband's friends over for dinner while his wife was out of town visiting her family. DH and best car buddy had …
Popovers with Black Cherry Creme
Most years the focus at Valentine's Day is on dinner, doing something special, whether going out or having a nice meal at home. This year, we have a party to attend on February 14, so I thought I'd make a special breakfast. I have a lot to show you, so settle in, and enjoy my …

Low Carb Crustless Anything Quiche
What can you do with the little bits of things left over from the week? Those bits of meat and vegetables, too much to throw away and too little to make a serving? I know a lot of you out there make soup. My brother-in-law likes to put leftover veggies cold in salads. Actually it …
