This is it, the last of the Prime Rib. No surprise, when I get down to the last little bit of anything my mind wanders towards soup. I love a “garbage” soup where you take all the odds and ends leftover and through […]

Champagne Sunrise
I love Sunday mornings, lazy, sleep in and stay in your pajamas Sunday mornings. Which is probably why I love Sunday brunch, I never get up early enough to have Sunday breakfast! Normally I don’t have cocktails on a Sunday morning, not that I think there is anything wrong with it, but I prefer my […]
Prime Rib Dip
As predicted…a recipe for left over prime rib. I ‘m going to make my daughter at Leftovers for Lunch proud. Before I ramble any further; Happy New Years everyone, I think 2011 will be a time for changes…good ones! Back to the Prime rib dip, which I normally make in the French Dip fashion. I […]
Perfect Prime Rib Instructions
Tired of Turkey and Ham? Didn’t get a chance to indulge yourself at Christmas? Start the New Year right with a Prime Rib Roast. I’m talking about the king of roasts here. The beauty of a prime rib roast is how easy it is to make. The only way you are going to mess up […]
Smoked Turkey Navy Bean Soup
Baby it’s cold out there… A hot bowl of soup is just the thing to warm you up. Navy bean soup is in my all time top three favorite soups. Normally I cook it with a smoked ham hock or the leftover ham bone. I had some smoked turkey I needed to use up, so […]
Cream Cheese Cake Mix Cookies
We had our first ever cookie exchange at work. The deal was: bring two dozen cookies, of the same or different kind, you come home with two dozen cookies that someone else baked. Since I’m not a big fan of baking (except doing my duty during the holidays and other special occasions), I was excited […]
Basic Bowl of Red
Over a month ago, when I was teaching my California Roll class, Mark had confessed to me that he didn’t know how to make chili. I told him perfect, that I had planned on posting my “no” recipe chili that very week. Me and my big mouth, I should never give a date for […]
Sandbakkels
After living in Europe for over 8 years I learned that when someone asks you where your family is from, you say America. To say Germany or Iceland or wherever, they take it quite literally. Totally different from what we mean in the states. America is such a melting pot and very few of us […]
Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies
Something about the holiday times that turns, even me, the non-baker, into a cookie fiend. I rarely make cookies (just ask my cookie deprived family). It’s not that I don’t like cookies, it’s that I do like cookies. I like them just a little too much. They are just too easy to eat. It usually starts […]
The Ultimate Tuna Melt
This week has started off very busy. It’s been all about the Baby boy. I work 50+ hours a week and I barely have time to make dinner some nights. It really depends on my schedule. When I work the “open” shift I get home early so I can plan a nice meal, when I […]
