We just had a Teriyaki Madness chain open up here in Great Falls and everyone loves it! I have to say I thought it was pretty decent myself. However, I’m a do it yourself gal in the kitchen and when you cook up almost 8 pounds of pork shoulder, grill 5 pounds of squash, 12 […]

Kartöflur í jafningi {Icelandic Potatoes in White Sauce}
For the longest time I had a dislike for cream sauce, it seemed as if it was used to cover up food that no child in their right mind would like. Lutefisk and peas in my case. Now put some cheese in the white sauce and it was a whole different ball game, but I […]
Delicious Dills – Eliot’s Eats
Finally! Seriously, I was beginning to wonder if it would ever happen but it did, I was finally assigned Deb’s blog: Eliot’s Eats. I actually started reading Deb’s blog because of SRC. She got my blog, well, almost 2 years ago; she made me blush with all the nice things she said about my […]
Slow Roasted Tomatoes and life lessons from a tomato plant
This was it, the very last remnants from my garden (other than a few hardy herbs). My little pear tomato plant was the wonder of my garden this year. I started it from a wee little seed, I only had a couple of them, so I did a germination test. Only one seed sprouted. I […]
Kale Salt {and Kale Chips}
Of all the things that I’ve ever posted about, if you only make one recipe, try one thing, it has to be this kale salt. Kale salt? Indeed, it’s revolutionary! It’s ahhhhmazing! It’s tasty! It’s healthy! Folks, this salt is so incredible that I would consider marketing it! As far as I know there isn’t […]
Dill Asparagus with Lemon Panko
When I lived in Europe, Asparagus was a revered vegetable. The season started in May and ended around Mid-Summer’s day. In England they treasured nice meaty stalks (but not woody), in Germany the white asparagus was on every menu and in France and Italy the small dainty little asparagus showed up salads, pastas and any […]
Asparagus Dill Quiche with a Potato Crust
Remember when I received all that dill in my Bountiful Basket? I posted these deviled ham eggs and then I posted the Flounder Olympia (which you need to try if you haven’t yet). But that’s not all baby! I made this fantabulous quiche also. Actually I made quite a bit more but didn’t photograph it […]
Maple Glazed Carrots–Secret Recipe Club Reveal
This is the longest hiatus between posts that I’ve ever taken. As a matter of fact the last time I posted, was during Secret Recipe Club Reveal last month. At my last posting I was hot and heavy into finals for Part 1 of my school. I then took a one week break and visited […]
Spicy Noodle Bowl-SRC Reveal
I may have scaled back on my blogging but I just couldn’t scale back on The Secret Recipe Club, you know because clubbing is so much fun It had to happen, at some point, I was going to be assigned a Vegan blog. I was pretty sure that I wouldn’t have an issue, but […]
Pan Seared Salmon with Maple Chipotle Sauce
Here is the last of my dishes from The Daring Cooks Challenge. The mandatory ingredients I selected for this one was: maple, chipotle and parsnips. Although this dish wasn’t at the same show stopper level as the Cowboy Steak with Red Eye Gravy, if I would have made this first I probably would have thought […]
