Layered Salad This salad takes me back to those wire-bound benefit cookbooks and the summer church festivals held in parking lots. At least that’s how far back this classic goes for me. The idea to make this again came from my son who asked if I would “make that salad with the bacon and peas…
Blueberry Corn Cakes “Old Fashioned”, is the first thing my husband said about these pancakes. They are fluffy and slightly crispy on the outside and edges…like his ‘Granny’ use to make. Neither one of us are huge pancake fans, however with the freezing rain that left a blanket of ice on the roads, we’re snuggled…
Chicken Caesar Pizza Hmmm, the flavors of a Chicken Caesar Salad in a pizza? Oh Yes! Bisquick came out with a Gluten Free Mix (hooray for Bisquick) and my first test was a pizza crust. I love seeing the many new products now available that make everyday dinners so much easier. Bisquick was a staple…
Turkey Swedish Meatballs I was watching a show on the Food Network the other day and they were making Swedish Meatballs, which happen to be my husband’s favorite. I had never made them, so it was a great time to give it a try. Alton Brown’s recipe is the one I referenced, and of course…
Butterflied Cornish Game Hens I woke Saturday morning to blustery winds and seven inches of snow on the ground. It’s our first snow of the season and the heavy wet snow covered the bows of the pine branches bending them almost to the ground. The Maple Tree’s were coated on the north side of their…
This post is linked to Slightly Indulgent Tuesday’s Mini Cheesecake Cheesecake is my very favorite dessert of all time. I’m not much for flavored cheesecake like chocolate or berry, I prefer traditional vanilla or New York style. As for toppings, the flavor and texture of cheesecake seems to get lost a bit when it’s smothered…
Fiesta Lime Chicken I was craving a chicken dish called Tequila Lime Chicken that I use to order at a chain restaurant. Being there are only a few restaurants I actually go to anymore, I attempted to make make my own version of that dish. It turned out even better than I remember and it’s…
Sundried Tomato and Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts These chicken breasts have so much flavor with the tangy sweetness of sundried tomatoes and the rich melted goodness of Swiss or Provolone cheese. Slicing into them reveals the colorful flavors and allows for a beautiful presentation. Serve with a side of whole grain brown rice or gluten…
Red Curry Butternut Squash SoupToday I’m sharing a weekend road trip where I had the pleasure of visiting a little cafe that served the best butternut squash soup I’ve ever had. This Red Curry Butternut Squash soup is my version of that soup, and I’m proud to say it’s every bit as good…the only thing…
Shortbread Cookies My daughter is getting married and we attended a Bridal Fair together last weekend at the convention center. We were there for five hours and visited every booth learning about flowers, invitations, photo booth’s, limo’s, and even watched two fashion shows. It was so much fun! One of the vendor’s I didn’t mention,…
Decadent Turkey Meatloaf It’s that time of year where meatloaf is on the menu again. This was one of the first posts I shared on Gluten Free Spinner as it’s always a favorite, so I’m re-posting for those who are new to my site. I made this recipe earlier this week with baked potatoes…
Asian layered Appetizer I’m always looking for appetizer ideas…something different, not too filling, healthy, full of flavor, and easy. This one hits the mark on every point. A friend of mine told me about a recipe she tried a few weeks ago at a party. Her description of the ingredients alone had me craving Asian…
