Potato salad is a summertime cookout side dish staple. Although the number of recipes you’ll find for different dressings and add-ins are nearly endless, don’t forget about the most important part of a potato salad – the potatoes! With so many varieties available at the […]
I just love all things cute and “two bite” potatoes are no exception. Now that I am blogging, I go grocery shopping several times a week. I never know how many times I will need to make a recipe before it is “blog worthy,” and with […]
Growing up in the south it was typical to see potato salad at the table for cookouts, holidays, or picnics. My mom makes really great potato salad, but the only thing I don’t like is all the mayonnaise. I really, really don’t like mayonnaise. Something about the consistency and […]
Who doesn’t love pumpkin bread in the fall? It’s moist, delicious and so comforting. Just the thought of pumpkin bread makes me want to grab a cable sweater, sit by the fire and watch some leaves falling outside. Ahhhhh. This recipe for 4 Ingredient Pumpkin Bread […]
I recently had lunch at a charming restaurant in Constantia where they had carrot cake ice cream on the menu. Intrigued, I just had to try it, but sadly it was a little lacking—just a bog-standard vanilla ice cream with bits of cake mixed through […]
This is a wonderfully simple, delicious dish, the heart not, as you might imagine, tough as old boots because of all the work it does, but in fact firm and meaty but giving. As a special and quick Valentine’s Day update, I figured I should […]
Can you believe November is here already?! It’s almost Thanksgiving, and I am getting so excited for all of my favorite foods – turkey, mashed potatoes, squash, stuffing, green bean casserole, and of course, all of the delicious Thanksgiving desserts! This post contains affiliate links. I may […]
I hope it doesn’t jinx us to say this, but I think John and I have FINALLY found THE HOUSE! This is the FOURTH house we have put an offer on over the last 3 years, and probably the 100th house we have looked at. […]
Is it a brownie, or is it cake? Should you have it for breakfast or dessert? Does it taste like chocolate orange or the most decadent truffle? Not that you will care about its name when you’re busy shoveling slice after slice into your mouth. […]
These Chicken Sausage with Sun-dried Tomatoes and Cheesy Grits are the kind of meal you crave, the fact that they’re ready in about 30 minutes makes it that much more appealing. I was never a grits kinda gal (probably due to the fact that I […]
The preparation that we bring you this time in RecetasGratis is a delicious but straightforward Peruvian baked chicken recipe. Baked chicken is a prevalent dish, so in every country, it has its versions. In this case, it is the typical Peruvian spices and ingredients that […]
There seems to be two exceptions to the “no chicken” rule at our house–rotisserie chicken from the market (which means I don’t have to cook!) and Chicken Piccata. Or as Scott affectionately calls it, Chicken with the Green Things. If you’re not familiar with Chicken […]
I’m about as predatory as they come, but I have a confession…as I was prepping the dish; I couldn’t help but feel a little guilty. I was washing and patting dry my chickens, and it occurred to me that, damn, I hope my ultimate purpose […]
Happy St. Patrick’s day everyone! St. Patrick’s Day for me is usually uneventful. It’s the day after my daughter’s birthday (and two days before my other daughter’s birthday) so I am usually begging for a break between parties! This years themes were Doc McStuffins for […]
Back home in Tennessee my grandparents would have a big fish fry every summer and all of our family and friends would come. My grandfather and all his friends would fish all year and save it all for the fish fry. I have so many […]
