Alsatian Caramelized Onion Pizza is my take on the Trader Joe’s Tart d’Alsace. I’ll tell you how to make overnight caramelized onions, too.
Steamed Molasses Brown Bread
Steamed Molasses Brown Bread is easy to make, low fat, and does not require yeast. You don’t even need a loaf pan or an oven. It’s made in a coffee can on top of the stove!
How to Make Carnitas in the Instant Pot
We love Carnitas, and we love it, even more, when it’s quick in the Instant Pot. Using Taco Sauce gives great meat flavor, then finishing it in a Dutch oven makes it simple and tasty. We like it with guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and beans.
May Day Million Dollar Glazed Pound Cake
This cake is called a Million Dollar pound cake for a reason. It is amazingly rich, moist and buttery tasting. It’s also simple to make with an electric mixer and with very few ingredients, you probably have everything you need to make it right now.
Old Bay Biscuits – Great with Chowder and Soups
Old Bay biscuits go very well with chowders and other seafood. We had them with homemade Clam Chowder. I cut them into hearts because it was close to Valentine’s Day when I made them. You know, sometimes, you just get tired of round and want something else.
Popcorn and Cheese Sprinkles for Easter Gifts
Popcorn and cheese sprinkle gifts are easy to make from ingredients you probably already have in your house. Package them up in vacuum-sealed bags and you can take them with you anywhere, or do like I did, and give them as gifts.
Tuna Casserole with Fresh Mushroom Soup
Tuna Casserole with Fresh Mushroom Soup has the comfort you remember as a child, but the mushroom soup is made with mushrooms sauteed with shallots and sherry, brings it forward for your adult tastebuds.
DIY Faberge Eggs
DIY Faberge eggs are so easy to make and you can keep them for years to come. The picture above is my collection for three years.
Easter Centerpieces You Can Make at Home
I think the best part about Easter is kids, and how much fun they can have. As some of you may know, I have been involved with a wonderful organization called Ascencia. I wanted to make them special centerpieces for their Easter breakfast, and I cooked breakfast as well.
We had a lot of fun making these little “nests”, as I got the children, including my dear Spane, to decorate plastic eggs in whatever fashion they desired. I had plenty of glitter glue, paint, sticky gems, and all we really needed to make Fabergé jealous.
Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting
I don’t know why I wait for Easter to make a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. I think it just seems appropriate for the rabbits of Easter to have a carrot cake treat. This is a really rich cake, not something for every day.
