It had been way too long since I last made this pie (decades). It used to be a yearly occurrence. Every thanksgiving I would make this pie, sometimes with the assistance of a beautiful little helper. I am posting the recipe so that she will now have it to make with her beautiful little helpers….

Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
I promised to share the good, the bad and the ugly…here is a recipe I tried that tasted fantastic, but I could not get it to look right no matter how I changed my technique. First, I thought the hole in my plastic bag was too big… Then, that the cinnamon filing was too liquid……
Orecchiette with Seared Cauliflower, Chicken and Greens
It is funny that some of my favorite dishes are created when I am trying to clean out either my refrigerator or my cabinet. This time I needed space in my refrigerator to prepare for Thanksgiving. What needed to go? half a cauliflower, half a bag of baby greens, and some chicken fingers that Cam…
Roasted Fall Vegetables with Pumpkin Seed Oil
It was a night when I needed to make a relatively fast dinner, but had no idea what I wanted to make. I stopped at one of the local farm markets and picked up a cauliflower; I decided I would do something with the cauliflower and some of the sweet potatoes from my garden….
Black Rice and Broccoli with Almonds
I think black rice is totally cool. I love the look, the nutty, taste and the texture. And, it is very good for you, it has even higher levels of antioxidents than brown rice. A 100 gram serving of black rice has 8.5 grams of protein, 3.5 milligrams of iron and 4.9 grams of fiber. Compared…
Black Bean and Sweet Potato Turkey Chili
I first found this recipe several years ago, and it has been a regular addition to our fall eating since. I want to thank Sara at Our Best Bites for the original version of this slow cooker recipe. I change it a bit each time I make it, but I always work from her recipe,…
Broccoli & Turkey Bacon Rice Bowl
Broccoli from the farmers market, jalapenos from my garden, local eggs & turkey bacon…a fun combination of ingredients. I have made this rice bowl a few times, and we always love it. I make my son a deconstructed version and he devours it., so its a hit all around. Broccoli and Turkey Bacon Rice Bowl…
Yummy Baked Sweet Potato Fries
It was meatloaf night at our house. So the sweet potato fries needed to be the flavor that would accompany my husband’s delicious onion soup based meatloaf. Of course, that would be onion and garlic powder seasoned fries! These are great! So simple, yet so tasty. I did not make enough. No worries though, I…
Pumpkin Pancakes
Inevitably, there is leftover pumpkin. And usually it is just the right amount to make some pumpkin pancakes for breakfast. Yum! We like our pumpkin pancakes topped with maple syrup and some cinnamon sugar, a real treat to start the day. Of course, you can multiply the recipe to match the amount of pumpkin or…
Kale Quiche
When I stopped at the farmers market last week, I couldn’t resist buying some kale from Beechwood Orchards. But I had no pans for what I was going to do with it. Then I realized that I had a couple of pie shells in the freezer, regular pie shells, not deep dish. I had enough…
