Chicken and Gnocchi Soup Recipe

chicken gnocchi ingredients

I can’t believe I’ve never posted this recipe before. It’s a family favorite, especially in winter when it’s cold, and one of the few things I can make where the whole family eats the same thing. The original recipe calls for all dairy liquids with milk and cream. Since my oldest son and I are… read more »

Yum? Nuts.

KP Duty: Chicken and Rice for Cuisinart Multi Cooker

chicken and rice

I’ve been in a food rut. Making a lot of the same types of meals night after night – pan seared meat, mashed or parsley potatoes, and a veg. I did try to change up the mashed potatoes by adding parsnips, but even that’s gotten old hat. So off to search Google for something new…. read more »

Marzetti Simply Dressed

Have you ever checked the ingredients on your favorite salad dressing? Are they good for you, or do they defeat the purpose of eating a salad in the first place? I think you’ll find that a lot of dressings defeat the purpose of eating the salad in the first place. As an avid label reader,… read more »

Late summer and fall lent itself to Weyerbacher’s Imperial Pumpkin Ale. My husband talks about it all year. When it’s not Imperial Pumpkin he’s talking about, it’s Troegs’ Mad Elf Ale. Now that Imperial Pumpkin season is over, it’s Mad Elf season! Let me tell you, Mad Elf is almost like tequila. Everyone has a tequila… read more »

From The Class6: The Pumpkin Beer Verdict

pumpkin-beers

The pumpkin beer verdict is in – Weyerbacher’s Imperial Pumpkin Ale stands above all others. None of the other beers that were part of the taste test had the flavor or spices that Weyerbacher uses. If you shy away from pumpkin beer because you think it will be sweet, don’t. It doesn’t taste like grandma’s… read more »

Chicken Sandwich on Naan

chicken-and-naan-sandwich

This is a super easy, but very filling sandwich I threw together on a whim. It’s just some chicken, cheese, mayo, lettuce, and tomato on naan. I heated the chicken (I used one of those pre-cooked packages to make it easier, but regular chicken would work too), put it on the bread with the condiments,… read more »

KP Duty: Troegs Javahead Cupcakes

KP Duty

OK, so this is sort of a collaboration between KP Duty and From the Class 6. I know a lot of chefs say to cook with beers and wines that you  like to drink. This is one case where a beer that my husband doesn’t like to drink is great for baking. My husband likes… read more »
