Beef Tomato Fried Rice
This is good as a side dish to an oriental meal or by itself as a meal.
Spiced Pizza Crust
Once you make this crust and play with the spices and toppings to truly make it yours you’ll never want to order delivery or get a frozen pizza again.
Open Fresh Strawberry Pie
I love farm-to-table cooking and fresh produce is at the heart of that. Strawberries from the fields can’t be beaten. I do a lot with strawberries in the summer and this ie one of my favorites because it’s quick and easy.
Heavenly Hamburger
In the book, this particular recipe was in my Nana’s handwriting. I have no idea how she came up with it. I can only guess that she grabbed whatever she had on hand and threw it together. It’s actually super tasty and I always enjoy making it. It’s absolute comfort food.
My Lasagna
In the book, there were 2 different lasagnas that were nearly identical from someone my mom worked with and a cousin-in-law. I took their ideas and doinked around to make one all my own with more flavor and a little kick.
Margarita Pie
I have taken this to countless potlucks and parties over the years, it’s always a hit and there’s almost never any to take home with me. I’ve also used it for Superbowl parties. On occasion, I’d scale it WAY back and have it for my kids as an afterschool snack that’d last em a couple of days.
Beef Stew With Marsala
This is easy and full of flavor. Here it is pictured with Cheesy New Potatoes
Fettuccine with Chicken and Tequila-Lime sauce
This is a quick and easy meal with a ton of flavor. I love the cheesiness of the pasta with the smoke of the tequila and the tang of the lime. It’s a full-on mouth surprise.
Cheesy New Potatoes
This is a wonderfully cheesy side dish that’s full of flavor. Pictured with Beef Stew with Marsala.
