Rosemary Cheddar Potato Latkes

These Rosemary Cheddar Potato Latkes are not your traditional latkes by any means, but they are absolutely delicious. You can serve these golden brown potato pancakes with a dollop of sour cream.
TipMy method of squeezing the water out of the potatoes is using a potato ricer, which is one of my favorite kitchen tools. I also use it for spinach, canned artichoke hearts, etc.

Indian Pudding

Indian Pudding is not hugely popular, especially in the Western United States. In fact, I bet you that most people have never heard of it. The recipe came from the North East – Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. It is very easy to make and extremely low budget. When you put vanilla ice cream on top, it becomes a marriage made in heaven. If you ever get really cold and can’t seem to warm up, make this dish!
