Sea Food in pastry Sea Shells
This recipe was originally designed to be cooked in ramekins. You can do that for a delicious entrée, but if you want to dress it up , make your own “dish ” with a pie crust on a sea shell for that extra “wow” affect. Print Recipe Sea Food in pastry Sea Shells Course…
Lobster Macaroni and Cheese
I think most of us think we are eating something decadent when we choose homemade mac and cheese, now add lobster to the dish and you’ve really gone over the top. This recipe is not complicated, so when you are ready to indulge, go for it!
Herbed Cheese Popovers
Boursin-style cheese and herbs melt into the batter, making these popovers very special.
High Hat Popovers
Popovers are fun! They’re a nice change from your basic dinner roll when you are in a festive mood. There are special ‘popover pans’ but they are not required. They will rise and shine in a cupcake pan just as well. A food processor doesn’t beat in enough air for the desired lightness, so use…
Corn Bread (enhanced)

Corn Chowder with Clams

It not only tasted good it was a great vehicle to keep dinner conversation going as diners dipped the pastry filled morsels in the rich chocolate cream, in no hurry to conclude…
Eggplant Parmigiana
This is one of my very favorite Italian recipes. Eggplant is so hearty it is almost steak-like. The melding of the flavors of the marinara, cheeses and eggplant are outstanding. One recipe mentioned layering slices of zucchini in with the eggplant ! The dish is a perfect addition to a buffet table, excellent lunch entre, and…
Chipped Beef on Toast
There is a story to go with this recipe. It was one of Joe’s favorite weekend breakfasts, or Saturday lunch. He would request it often and almost as often make it himself. One weekend we had Jason’s children over and grandpa Joe fixed chipped beef on toast. ” What did you call this?”, they shouted! “This isn’t…
Chicken a la King
This is an old time family meal. A simple rue, stirred around pepper and mushrooms and chicken and poured over biscuits or toast. It’s easy, a good use of leftover chicken, or a cooked chicken from the deli, and it will warm your heart for sure. Print Recipe Chicken a la King Prep Time 30 minutes…
