One pot meals has recently ramped up as one of my favorite ways to cook weeknight meal. While dinner is cooking, I can clean up the kitchen. By the time we sit down to eat, all I have to think about is enjoying my dinner and putting the plates into the dishwasher. This pasta dish fit the bill, because this dish has some of my husband's favorite ingredients. Bacon. Onion. BBQ sauce. Best of all,
Cornmeal Pancakes with a Raspberry Compote
These Cornmeal Pancakes are incredibly delicious, fluffy and tender, with a nice subtle crunch from the corn meal.Since I had fresh raspberries, I made a raspberry compote to serve with this. The notes of vanilla adds just the right amount of sweetness. Of course, using pure maple syrup is an added bonus. This is a keeper recipe! One Sundays, after church, we enjoying treating ourselves
Oven Roasted Asian Glazed Roast Pork Tenderloin
This Oven Roasted Asian Glazed Roast Pork Tenderloin is incredibly good. Pork tenderloin is my favorite "other white meat". It's very lean, and can be ready to eat in less than 30 minutes. The marinade is very easy to make, and makes a nice glaze for the tenderloin. You can taste the fresh ginger and garlic, and it's perfectly paired with rice-- and stir-fried Bok Choy (or any vegetable). On a
Cast-Iron Skillet Raspberry Crumb Bars (“Skookie”)
This dessert Cast-Iron Skillet Cookie (Skookie) is very easy to make, as well as versatile. It's a perfect dessert crisp/cookie that is perfect for summer berries.

Pressure Cooker Italian-American Sunday Gravy Ragu
Sunday Gravy is an Italian-American dish– very popular on the East Coast. The “gravy” is more of a ragu that has been slowly simmered with various meats.

New York-Style Cheesecake with a Fresh Strawberry Topping
I love New York Cheesecake, because the addition of sour cream (or heavy cream) makes this dessert rich and velvety. The cheesecake bakes to a burnished golden brown. This is glorious, eaten plain. But,the sky is the limit with what toppings you'd like to add. I made a strawberry topping that balanced beautifully with the vanilla and slight tang of the sour cream. Best cheesecake I've ever
Indoor Barbecue: Pressure Cooker Kalua-Style Pork with a Pineapple-Mango Salsa
If you've ever had genuine Hawaiian barbecued pork, this traditionally involves roasting a suckling pig in a pit with hot rocks, banana leaves and kiawe wood (the Hawaiian version of mesquite). Since this is a lot of work, here's a quicker way to replicate the tender texture with the smokiness-- and making this is a pressure cooker. The pork butt turned out tender and delicious. I served this with
