Rolls to Gobble
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Thursday, February 16, 2012
My husband loves slow-cooked shredded meat with barbecue sauce. I… don’t.
I appreciate the simplicity of the recipe,* it’s just that barbecue is not my favorite. My husband enjoys it so much, though, and it’s so easy, that we still eat it fairly regularly.
When I have time, here’s how I make the meal delicious for me: by making homemade rolls to serve the meat on.
I know homemade bread is not everyone’s... READ MORE
Spicy Tasty Pork
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Friday, February 03, 2012
One of the things I appreciate about Internet community is recipe sharing. My family eats much better because I’m online. Generally, if a lot of people like a recipe, it’s a good bet that it’s worth trying.
Many were raving about Slow-Cooker Green Chili Pork Tacos recently, and once I tried it, I had to try it again. And again. And again.
This recipe is easy; basically, you cook pork in a slow cooker... READ MORE
Using the Peas
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, August 11, 2010
We had a snow pea plant in our garden, and it was producing enthusiastically. I needed a way to use all those sweet crunchy little pods.
Enter a recipe that my sister originally found on the Kraft website. She adapted the dish to her family’s tastes and I further adapted it to my family’s, and all the people involved (even the children) think it’s pretty tasty.
And I love it because we’re eating those... READ MORE
Another Easy Pasta Dish
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Monday, April 19, 2010
About a year and a half ago I shared one of my favorite pasta recipes: carbonara. I love that recipe because it’s easy and I nearly always have the ingredients on hand, but it’s a little too heavy for warm weather, in my opinion.
I crave the combination of bacon and pasta, though, so I was thrilled when I came across this recipe a few years ago. I believe it is very loosely based on an Italian dish,... READ MORE
Beans and Rice Recipe
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, March 03, 2010
Yesterday when I posted about onions, quite a few of you asked in the comments section for the beans and rice recipe I mentioned.
First of all, I want to point you to this post from two weeks ago, where I shared one recipe I enjoy and many readers contributed other recipes that look delicious. So you should definitely check that out.
Since you asked for it, though, I’ll also share the one-dish beans... READ MORE
Make Your Own Gnocchi
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Danielle’s recipe for mashed potato soup looks wonderful, and I’ve bookmarked it to try the next time we need a warm, comforting winter meal. (Soon.) Cheap, easy, and delicious is a trifecta that will draw me to a recipe every time!
But sometimes I like a challenge. Although I usually want meals to be easy to prepare, it can be fun to make slightly more time-consuming dishes, if the work-investment... READ MORE
In Search of Baked Greatness
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Tuesday, December 08, 2009
When I was first married I made plenty of casseroles because I couldn’t cook very well yet. I generally called my mother at least once during the process even when I was trying to make something as simple as biscuits! Mixing some ingredients in a dish and baking it was fool-proof and therefore perfect for my kitchen-inept self.
In seven years I’ve gained a lot of skill in the kitchen. I have also... READ MORE
The Meatloaf That Made Me a Meatloaf Fan
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, November 11, 2009
Some people love meatloaf, and some people hate it. I’m not in either camp. I’ve always felt indifferently toward meatloaf. I’d eat it without complaint if someone served it to me, but I certainly never went out of the way to make it for myself.
Then some friends had us over for dinner and served meatloaf. It was absolutely delicious. I was shocked to find myself turning down a second helping of potatoes... READ MORE
