Kill the Chill of a cold winter morning with this Ready-when-you-wake-up breakfast.
My recipe is modified from Cooking Light magazine to make it a little lighter and less fat.
This is a traditional New Year's day meal in South Carolina where it originated and was first published in "The Carolina Housewife" in 1847. The name is attributed to many legends, but most popular is to the crippled street vendor that sold the meal on the streets of Charleston, SC. His nickname - Hoppin' John.
Thanks Mrs. Greenwood! I lightened it up a bit, but it is still good!
I used Rotini noodles for this dish, but fettucini or any pasta can be used. Rotini is my daughter's favorite and since she's seven... she wins!
Great for my Meatless Monday's
This rendition is modified from Cooking Light's "Fresh Food Fast" cookbook.
The original adaptation of this recipe comes from one of my favorite cook books by Cooking Light - Fresh Food Fast - weekend nights. It is light but drink plenty of water - the sodium is high.
On a mission trip to Jamaica, I learned this recipe from sticking my head in and asking the cook questions about what she was cooking. I was graciously welcomed into her kitchen and given a seat to listen and watch.
Note- this is an all day stew to make the house smell wonderful.
This is a family recipe that always reminds me of my summers at my grandmother's. It is wonderful served as a sauce for hot dogs, chicken, roast, baked potatoes.... You decide! Enjoy
This is a version of Angry Clams I learned from Crossaints Bistro chef Brad. These shrimp are more "disgruntled" than angry, but that's ok. My wife and daughter like them this way.
A simple salad I learned on with my personal cooking lesson with Chef Brad!
My mother prepared this a couple of times a month as I was growing up. My brother and I would pull the onions out and dad would always claim "dibs" on them. It was made with ground beef, but here, I've lightened it up with Lean Turkey.
This adaptation from Cooking Light is low calorie, low fat, and low cholesterol. It is high on taste and filling.
This tangy, sweet and crunchy salad/snack is great for a side or for a fix on those afternoon munchies!!
A low calorie flavorful meal. Serve with a side of roasted brocolli.
The original recipe comes from Cooking Light magazine. I have made a few changes to lighten up even further.
This recipe comes from Cooking Light magazine. It is so good!!
A dish that's low calorie AND a comfort food for those cold winter days.
Great soup for cold dreary winter days! Best to let sit on the stove on low all day. Fills the house with the best aroma.
This is a favorite for our Sunday School Christmas party and one of my family's faves.
This chili has Southwestern undertones with the corn and black beans. It's great served with White Corn Tortilla salsa chips, or over a corn muffin.
My grandmother prepared this beverage when I would visit her in Pennsylvania years ago. One of my many wonderful memories of those days is sitting and sipping Nana's tea with a slice of her fresh baked bread that had been perfectly toasted and buttered.
