Hobo Hush puppies

This makes a lot of hush puppies if using small scoops. May make as big or small as you like. I use a very small ice cream scoop. I think it is a tablespoon size scoop. It makes them bite size. But you can use soup or teaspoon to drop in oil as well.

Maggie's Magnificent Meatball Minestrone Soup

This makes a HUGE stockpot because the friends I cook this delicious, hearty soup for want it ALL the time. I use barley instead of the traditional pasta or rice because leftovers freeze & reheat very well. I freeze individual portions in vacuum bags (FoodSaver); cook once, delicious soup for months!

Egg Muffins Under 120 Calories

This breakfast muffin is super easy to make and is very tasty. A great way to set up an on the go breakfast for the week.

My Shepherd's pie

I'm an American Irish dude who loves the way the pubs make this dish. So I created my own kick-@ss version. Its a great winter or rainy cold weather hearty home style meal. P.s. you can use any veggies you want. I just use whatever is in my fridge or pantry.

Country fried fish

Fried fish is a traditional cookout food in most African American families. We normally prepare this outside in a huge fryer! Enjoy with sliced bread, hot sauce, mustard......and a cold one!

White Chili

Great alternative to traditional chili! You any white beans you like, I normally use navy, cannelloni, garbanzo, great northern and pinto.

Fried rice my style

Beef Enchiladas

I always double my recipe because everyone I make these for absolutely loves them! (NOTE: Using flour tortillas will make the enchiladas soggy!! They'll still taste good, but very soggy texture! That's why it calls for corn tortillas instead.)

Sausage & Veggie Boil

Cornbread (Muffins or Bread)

My favorite thing to eat with chili (or any dinner really). I love cornbread! I usually leave out the corn kernels, because of my picky children, but this recipe is delicious either way. Steps include directions and cook times for both bread and Muffin variations. Recipe from Sallysbakingaddiction.com

Chicken Cutlets Topped With Blue Cheese

Flavor combinations are what can step up an ordinary dinner. This takes an ordinary meal up a notch in presentation and flavor. Treat yourself and loved ones to a great dinner any time of the week.

Garam Masala - Indian spicemix

Garam masala is a delicious warm tasting spicemix from India, there are a few recipes I love to make that require this and although you can probably also find a ready-made-mix in a shop when in a hurry... a fresh homemade mix is definitely much more rich in flavour and taste. You will need a old coffee bean grinder or something similar if you use whole ingredients. If you need more, just use a bigger spoon and keep it in a closed (glass) container to keep it fresh

Southwest beef 'n' bean soup

I threw this together for a church event and it was a hit. It makes a big pot (originally I used 4 quarts of stock and 3 bags of vegetables, but I trimmed the recipe down when I made it at home), so it can feed a crowd or have leftovers for quick meals. My husband and I love this soup!

Mike's Creamy Stacked Seafood Chowder

One piping hot hearty seafood chowder! Perfect especially on a super chilly, windy, rainey stormy night! Served with loads of succulent seafood in every stinkiin' bite! For those in the know, I have what we all call, "The Four Armageddon Pantries," in my home. Yup, four entire rooms devoted to endless food supplies. Anyway, today three of my students were charged with making a comforting lunch since it was so cloudy and gloomy here. All the while rotating our older canned reserves. Well, that they did! Their chowder turned out delicious! Excelent work with delicious shortcuts kiddos! This was a fantastic chowder and so darn comforting!

Healthy And Colorful Vegan Summer Salad

I made it and it was gone in minutes. Very tasty, nutritious, vegan, gluten free and overall good looking salad! You'll love it on these hot summer days, as a side dish or as a healthy snack in the afternoon!

Cheesy Chicken & Rice

My kids call me the casserole queen in my house. Well when you have 6 mouths to feed and 3 are boys and you work 2 full time jobs you learn how to make things stretch and use left overs.
