Oso Buco

This is a Suzanne Somers recipe. While I do not follow her food combining plan, I do very much enjoy cooking recipes from her cook books. They are usually easy and packed with amazing flavors. This recipe for oso buco is a fix-it and forget-it kind of recipe. Good for a night when you do…

Potato Rounds

Need I say more? No – at least not to my sisters as they read this post. Not a French fry but similar, and oh so good. If ever I am in the need for some good old emotional eating, that will surely make me feel better (and always a necessity when I am sick),…

Island Style Pork Chops

Still visiting the islands with this recipe for island style pork chops. I served this with the recipe for Caribbean rice. Your family will enjoy the wonderful flavors of these two dishes. If you have time, you can make your own homemade mango salsa, but as I am a busy working mom, I like to…

Easy BBQ Pulled Pork

This recipe is a fun and easy one to make and bonus, makes enough to be considered batch cooking even without doubling it. You can make this easy BBQ pulled pork on the stove top or even in the slow cooker. My family enjoys eating this like they do in the south on a sandwich…
