New Potatoes Stuffed with Salmon Caviar
These New Potatoes Stuffed with Salmon Caviar are an easy and elegant hors d’oeuvre for New Years Eve or any festive gathering. You can make them dairy by dotting them with creme fraiche or sour cream; or leave them non-dairy by just adding a few chopped chives. You can prep […]
Croutons
I never seem to make enough croutons! Everyone loves these crunchy cubes plain or with added salt or garlic. What a perfect way to re-purpose your left over challah or any other bread you have that’s drying out. I add croutons to soups and salads. My family even likes just […]
Mushroom Ears
Making Mushroom Ears couldn’t be easier. Defrost a box of puff pastry, spread it with sautéed mushrooms and onions, roll up, slice and bake. Mushroom Ears are actually easier to slice when they’re slightly frozen; so I always try to have a few rolls in my freezer for surprise company. […]

Deviled Hamburgers
These Deviled Hamburgers are flavored with horseradish, mustard, ketchup and Worcestershire (fish free) sauce. Often, I prefer to replace the bun with a grilled Portobello mushroom. Top the Deviled Hamburgers with sliced tomato (or salsa) and guacamole. Baked sweet potato fries complete this wonderful meal.

Beef Stew
Beef Stew made with fresh carrots, celery, pearl onions and new potatoes is the ultimate in satisfying, warming comfort food. The aroma of rosemary permeates the air as the stew is simmering. Add to that, you’ve got your meat, vegetables and potatoes all in one pot. That’s definitely a win! […]
