It’s particularly great paired with some homemade garlic bread. I never would have thought of putting tortellini…
I’m not sure if this recipe truly counts as homemade, because I don’t make the bread from scratch. However, I find that you save a lot of sodium and preservatives by making your own garlic bread at home (not that my version is healthy…). Plus, it tastes just as good! This makes a great side…

For special occasions, we enjoyed something a little different: Japanese Steak Houses – Benihana,…
I tried a new variation on lasagna today: Alfredo Lasagna Primavera. The verdict? Delicious!! I already shared my classic lasagna recipe with you, along with some variations. However, this recipe is so different that I decided it deserves its own post. Here’s what I did. Ingredients: 9-12 lasagna noodles, cooked 1 batch of…
If you’ve never been to Qdoba, you should go. It’s delicious. In fact, their queso burritos are so good that I decided I needed to find a way to make them at home. I’ve come up with what I think is a fairly close approximation to what I can get there. The one thing that…
Lasagna was one of the first meals my mom taught me how to cook. It’s not terribly difficult, but does take some time to put together. My husband, Tom, likes lasagna a lot more than I do, so I usually end up making it at his prompting. Part of the problem is that it makes…
Every year for the past, well, as long as I can remember, I’ve enjoyed making sweets and treats around Christmastime that I can share with family, friends and neighbors. Of course, I always enjoy it more when I do it with my mom, which, sadly, I was unable to do this year. In the past,…
One of my family’s favorite dishes that I make is my enchiladas. I created my own recipe, inspired from my dad’s enchiladas that he started making probably when I was in high school, as well as from a few recipes I found online. As with most of my recipes, there are several variations, but here’s…
Sometimes I just crave macaroni and cheese, don’t you? But something in me just has a really hard time buying that blue box with powdered cheesy mix. So, I decided to try a homemade version. It turned out pretty good, and I’ve since come up with a few variations. It takes about 15 minutes (or…
