Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
This classic Beef Brisket recipe is slow cooked in the oven until it’s tender enough to fall apart. I also give easy instructions on how to make it in a slow cooker so you can prep it in the morning and come home to dinner. It makes a great Sunday supper and it’s kosher for Passover!
I grew up with pot roast as part of our regular dinner rotation. It wasn’t until I was in my 30’s that I first had brisket!…
This easy recipe for Vegetable Beef Guinness Casserole Topped with Champ features a hearty and rich stew-like filling with a buttery mashed potato topping. It’s perfect for St. Paddy’s Day or any day you want real-food comfort food, and the leftovers are even better! Right now you’re probably wondering what the heck Champ is. Champ, my friends, is an Irish thing! Basically, it’s mashed potatoes with scallion and loads of butter. (Because we all know potatoes and butter go together like white on rice. Or, well, like potatoes and butter.)...
This Pelmeni recipe for Russian dumplings is cold-weather comfort food that features a savory meat filling, and is delicious served with sour cream and fresh dill. The first time I had Pelmeni was at a Russian restaurant called Ruz Us in Arlington, Virginia with the lovely Tara of Tara’s Multicultural Table. (Side Note: For me, one of the best things about living in the DC metro area was access to foods from so many different cultures!) After that I had them in Warsaw, Poland. I liked them so much, I started actively looking for this dish on menus!...
This Gluten Free Beef Meatball Recipe yields tender and flavorful meatballs, and it comes together easily for a delicious weeknight meal! Some meals are always saved for special occasions. Usually if it’s just my hubby and I for dinner and pasta is on the menu, I whip up a quick tomato sauce with browned ground beef. Meatballs in my house usually mean a special occasion, mostly because I typically don’t take the time to make them....
Inspired by Cornish Pasties, this savory herbed Beef Pasty Recipe features meat and vegetables in a flaky, buttery crust. It’s the perfect portable meal, and surprisingly easy to make! There are some TV shows that I just don’t expect to get into. Gotham was like that for me (Batman really isn’t my thing, but oddly enough I felt compelled to not miss an episode), and Downton Abbey was as well....
This Quick Lasagna Casserole (aka Lazy Lasagna Recipe) has layers of cooked pasta with flavorful tomato beef sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan cheeses. It comes together quick and easy in just 40 minutes and is every bit as flavorful as regular lasagna! Not too long ago, I made a huge batch of bison, bean, and vegetable soup. It was, if I do say so myself, pretty fabulous. Naturally, I completely expected my hubby not to like it....
This delicious Vegetable Beef Alphabet Soup has a flavorful broth and tons of veggies! Fun alphabet pasta makes it as fun for kids and adults as it is nutritious. I know alphabet soup is usually toddler food. Its right up there with bananas smeared with peanut butter and smiley-face-shaped sandwiches. I have a confession though: I might occasionally still like kid favorites....
Pizza Burgers combine two classic favorite family-friendly, crowd-pleasing foods for an instant winner that’s easy to whip up for a weeknight dinner! Have you fired up the grill yet this year? Where I live, we’ve had an unseasonably warm winter and now spring. And I don’t mean warm-for-upstate-New-York. We have antifreeze in our blood and think 45F weather in January is a heat wave, lol. I mean warm. Summertime warm, with temps reaching the upper 80’s at times....
This Low Carb Unstuffed Peppers Stir Fry skillet meal whips up in just 30 minutes with all the flavors of classic stuffed peppers – without the carbs! When it comes to dinner, more often than not I’m torn between wanting a healthy homemade meal and needing something I can whip up quickly. Most of us can relate, right?...
Dan Dan Noodles feature a complex and spicy, but balanced flavor profile, and my version is low carb without sacrificing taste. And this meal comes together in just 20 minutes! Dan Dan Noodles is a classic Sichuan street food dish, but I first had it at an Asian restaurant in Orlando. One bite and I was completely hooked on the flavor profile. It starts out subtly sweet, and then umami, and finally a fiery, spicy heat hits the back of your palate. After every single bite you’ll want to go back for another to repeat the tasting experience!...
