This Fresh Heirloom Tomato Galette is so delicious, that I'm quite sure it will convert non-tomato lovers into going back for seconds. The food processor pastry is a breeze to make. To prevent a soggy crust, heirloom tomatoes are lightly salted to drain out excess moisture. One more barrier is a thin layer of Dijon mustard and Gruyère cheese. Shallots and fresh thyme gives the tomatoes a savory
Cider-Braised Pork Roast and an Incredible Gravy
This Cider-Braised Pork Shoulder Roast (aka “Boston Butt”) is rubbed with brown sugar and salt. The next day, it’s seared to a golden crust, then slowly braised in apple cider with aromatics that includes thyme, onion, garlic and cinnamon. The pork is “falling off the fork” tender. The big “Ta-Da” silky and flavorful apple gravy. Served with a side of apple wedges seared in flavorful pork fat
The Best Chewy Browned Butter Crispies Cookies
These Browned Butter Crispies are chewy, yet crispy on the edges. You can really taste the butter! We love the added pecans and the small amount of oatmeal compliments the nuttiness of the pecans. Best of all, I can shape the dough into a log, slice them and freeze. It's a matter of self-preservation because I'd be tempted to eat them all if I baked the entire batch! I'm retired, at last!
Tuna and Apple Macaroni Salad
Tuna Macaroni salad might seem ho-hum, but this recipe is far from it. This is not just tuna, mayonnaise and pasta. This salad has the perfect balance of apple cider vingear, the crunch of apples, celery and shallots. The dressing isn't loaded with mayonnaise, because it has whole milk as well, and there's just enough cider vinegar to give a little "tang". This yields a dressing that gives a
The Best Homemade Sloppy Joe’s
Sloppy Joe's are a classic loose meat sandwich, also known as a "Manwich". Ground beef, tomato sauce and a little tart vinegar gives this sandwich filling a tangy and sweet flavor. It's much better than that stuff you find in the can. This is truly one of my husband's favorite dinners! Best of all, it's ready in 30 minutes! As little kids, we loved Sloppy Joe's. My mother would mix up the
Lemon Cream Cheese Coffee Cake with a Crumble Topping
This coffee cake is bursting with bright lemon flavor, with a layer of sweet cream cheese and a crumble topping. A glaze topping is optional (though I found we didn't need it). It's super moist and is perfect with a cup of coffee, or tea. It's an impressive brunch treat for company, too! I am so looking forward to spring weather and longer days of daylight. For one, I can finally
The Best Homemade Multigrain Bread
This recipe is truly the Bests Homemade Multigrain Bread I've ever baked. After years of searching for a multigrain bread that I can bake at home, I found "the one". The flavor is perfect, and the texture bakes up light yet chewy, without being tough. This makes perfect toast, grilled cheese sandwiches-- or any kind of sandwich. The not-so-secret ingredient is using a packaged 7-Grain hot
Homemade Thin and Crispy Pizza
Takeout pizza is a thing of the past, in our home. Homemade pizza dough isn't difficult to make, I promise. It's far less expensive that delivery (or pick up). This thin-style pizza crust is perfection in every way-- it's thin, it's crispy, it's delicious! Even better, you make it in a food processor! The homemade pizza sauce is just as easy to make. Plan on making the pizza dough at least one
How to Make Brazilian Shrimp and Fish Stew (Moqueca)
Moqueca is a Brazilian fish stew made with various kinds of seafood, coconut milk, tomatoes, onions, garlic, fresh cilantro and palm oil (sometimes referred to as dendê oil). While I didn't use palm oil, we loved coconut-lime and spicy flavor of this dinner-- served with rice. It's not difficult to make and looks impressive enough to serve to dinner guests. This is my first post for the New
