Bacon, lettuce and tomato quesadilla
Here is a fun way to serve a classic sandwich with a new Tex-Mex twist. I use sun-dried tomatoes, either quick microwave crispy bacon or traditional bacon, and shredded Fontina cheese. I also like to use Romaine lettuce. Gather the ingredients. Heat the tortilla shells in the oven for five minutes and then add the…
Tomato and Cheese Tart
Inspired by the Food Network magazine, September 2016 issue, I made this tart last week. This is a great recipe, as the puff pastry works perfectly to create a tasty savory tart.

Pumpkin Popovers
So, I found this recipe back in October for pumpkin popovers, and boy are they delicious. Just the perfect blend of the pumpkin taste with the ever popular popover experience.

roasted tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons
I felt “Fall” in the air this past weekend in Michigan. I must admit, I love this season the best of all of the seasons of the year. The brisk mornings and the changing leaves make the season so comfortable for me. I have been looking at many recipes over the past few weeks just…

picnic fruit salad
given to me more than ten years ago, this classic picnic fruit salad tastes like summer memories. my grandmother used to make a recipe very similar to this one, but it included mini marshmallows. that information really dates me, as i don’t think we have been adding marshmallows to salad recipes in over 30 years….
