Grilled Broccoli & Cauliflower Parmesan

Here is a great tip for grilling vegetables. By putting a few ice cubes in the foil packets, the cubes melt and perfectly steam the vegetables.

Cheesy Potato & Ham Chowder

While surfing the web, found this recipe on an Indiana Farmer's site (yes, you know you are leading an exciting life when you are checking out farmer's websites!). I have no idea why I made it, because I generally hate soup of any kind. It was really delicious and my husband said we need to keep this recipe in the family archives. I added some white pepper to it, but the simplicity is what really makes this soup good. Some crumbled bacon bits would not go amiss as a garnish...

Classic Baked Macaroni & Cheese

Classic Baked Macaroni & Cheese

Every Monday, I make Macaroni & Cheese for a school, for 11 years. I can only image how much macaroni I've boiled - 10 lbs per week. I guess you could say that I'm fairly good at it. However, this recipe is NOT the school recipe. That one is done on the stove top and this recipe is baked with breadcrumbs. Let's face it, there is nothing better than mac n' cheese.

Crispy Parmesan Herb Zucchini

Crispy Parmesan Herb Zucchini

Zucchini is such a great side dish for the summer. The zucchini or courgette is a summer squash and very versatile. It can be prepared using a variety of cooking techniques, including steamed, boiled, grilled, stuffed and baked, barbecued, fried, or made into bread. Zucchini is one of the easiest vegetables to grow in temperate climates.

Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Chicken Enchilada Casserole

This is one of our family's Mexican comfort food recipes. I made it easier by cutting up the tortillas instead of rolling them. I also soften the tortillas in the microwave to avoid frying them in oil.

Cheesy Cauliflower Gratin

Cheesy Cauliflower Gratin - YUM! As you may have guessed, I love cauliflower. I think I have posted about 14 other cauliflower recipes. This one is wonderfully creamy and cheesy. You can also top this with ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan mixed with ¼ cup fresh bread crumbs instead of Saltines.
