Pasta with Artichokes & Lemon Cream Sauce
As you may have gathered, our family likes anything that's lemony and contains artichokes. I used a bag of frozen artichoke hearts and Trader Joe’s Lemon Pepper Pappardelle pasta.

Spanish Roasted Potatoes with Tomato Sauce
I am always looking for new ways to make potatoes. "Patatas Bravas" is a classic Spanish tapas dish and is served in bars all over Spain. The sauce has a slight bite from the Tabasco, hence the name bravas, which means "fierce." They are also called "angry" potatoes. You can serve them with toothpicks as a snack or as a side dish.

Creamy Chicken Spaghetti Casserole
Got this recipe from the Pioneer Woman. I've been needing a little comfort food. This fits the bill - creamy and delicious. I bought chicken that was already cut up. You could even use a rotisserie chicken.

Sour Cream Noodle Bake
My friend, Chris, dropped this casserole off for me with some of her home grown tomatoes and peppers. It couldn't have come at a better time. We are putting in a new kitchen and everything was torn out. Also, I was having my last chemo treatment! Yay!

Johnny Marzetti Casserole
I love recipes with a story. I have to say I have never heard of this casserole recipe. The dish originated in Columbus, Ohio, at Marzetti's, an Italian restaurant established in 1896 on Broad St. by an Italian immigrant named Teresa Marzetti. One of the dishes Marzetti offered her customers was a baked casserole of ground beef, cheddar cheese, tomato sauce, and noodles that she named for her brother-in-law Johnny. It was very popular during WWII. The original restaurant closed in 1942, but a second location, opened in 1919 remained in operation until Teresa Marzetti died in 1972. She was also popular for her salad dressings, which you can still buy today. This recipe is very similar to Sour Cream Noodle Bake that I posted recently, minus the sour cream.

Old Fashioned Banana Pudding
Banana pudding is a very old fashioned dessert generally consisting of repeated layers of sweet vanilla flavored custard, cookies (usually Vanilla Wafers or ladyfingers) and sliced fresh bananas placed in a dish and served, topped with whipped cream. It's so simple and yet so deliciously satisfying.

Lobster Tails with Citrus Shallot Butter Sauce
My daughter, Grace, who survives almost only on plain pasta, asked me to make lobster. Of course, I immediately went out and found these lobster tails, on sale as well. The most amazing part is the Citrus Shallot Butter Sauce. My husband was drinking it at one point! You wouldn't want to eat this every day, but it's perfect for special occasion.
