Chile Rellenos Soup

Chile Rellenos Soup is a creamy and cheesy soup inspired by the classic Mexican Chile Rellenos. Roasted poblano peppers, cheese, and chicken capture the flavors of the traditional dish in an easier-to-make format. To make it easier, I used rotisserie chicken and topped with with crushed tortilla chips. It's really delicious.

Parmesan Mushroom Casserole

This Parmesan Mushroom Casserole is absolutely delicious and the best thing is that it can be made ahead and finished off in the oven. The sliced mushrooms are bathed in a creamy sauce, topped with a crispy parmesan breadcrumb mixture. It's a vegetarian side dish that goes well with many main courses. All I can say is YUM, so good!

Chicken Cordon Bleu

Contrary to popular belief, Chicken Cordon Bleu isn't French. It likely originated in Switzerland around the 1940s. The first documented recipe appeared in a Swiss cookbook in 1949. It is based on schnitzel, a thin, breaded cutlet, filled with cheese in this case. Most recipes roll the ham and cheese in the chicken. This recipe puts the ham, cheese and bread crumbs on top and it gets baked in the oven, which makes it way easier. It’s served with this Parmesan-Dijon Cream Sauce sauce, which makes this dish outstanding.

Hot Pickle and Cheese Cracker Dip

As a kid, growing up in Indiana in the 60s, one of my favorite snacks was/is Cheez-Its Crackers and Kraft Pimento Cheese Spread. We are taking "haute cuisine". My tastes have evolved into a somewhat more sophisticated palate, though if you showed up at my house with this combo, I would be delighted! Anyway, getting back to my main point here is this Hot Pickle and Cheese Cracker Dip. It's a deliciously spicy, tangy, cheesy, briny dip that is covered in, wait for it... Cheez-Its and baked. What's not to like?!

Pasta e Fagioli

Pasta e Fagioli is a classic Italian soup made with pasta, beans, and vegetables. It is a hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. There are many different variations of Pasta e Fagioli, and in fact, I have three other Pasta e Fagioli recipes on this blog! This one has a creamy texture from puréeing a can of white Beans.

Lighthouse Inn Potatoes

Lighthouse Inn Potatoes originated at an iconic hotel and restaurant located in New London, Connecticut, which closed in 2008. Executive Chef Leon “Wally” Walden, who worked there for nearly 50 years, created Lighthouse Inn Potatoes. It is similar to scalloped potatoes, but instead of sliced potatoes he used chunks of potatoes that are cooked in light cream and butter and a bit of baking soda, which neutralizes the potatoes’ tannins and create a velvety sauce. The potatoes are topped with buttery parmesan panko breadcrumbs and baked until the bubbling and golden brown.

Hot Reuben Dip

My nephew Will was visiting from the UK. He loves reuben sandwiches, so I made him this Hot Reuben Dip. It's a combination of corned beef (I couldn't find any so I used pastrami), cream cheese, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, sour cream, ketchup, and spicy brown mustard. It's baked in the oven and served with rye or pumpernickel. It was delicious.

Spinach Artichoke Dip Pizza

Spinach Artichoke Dip Pizza is a delicious and unique twist on the classic pizza. It combines the creamy, cheesy goodness of spinach artichoke dip with a pre-made pizza dough. It makes a great party appetizer. I used Trader Joe’s Rectangular Pizza Crust or you can use Boboli. It's so easy and so good.
