My mother used to make what I now know to be…polenta. There wasn’t a very large Italian population in South Dakota, probably still isn’t. So, we just didn’t know about things like polenta. So, unknowingly she made polenta, or cornmeal “mush”. Continue reading

This was a revelation for The Goddess. Who would have thought this would be such a winning combination? I’ve been reveling in leftover Oma’s Sauerkraut with Apple, Onion and Bacon and have I been enjoying it. In that posting, I think I mentioned sautéed sauerkraut with fried eggs over the top for breakfast. This is just a waltz one step further down that road! Continue reading

Pizza…mmmmm! Is there anyone who doesn’t love, or at least like pizza? And what’s better than leftover pizza for breakfast? You know you love leftover pizza. You can deny it, but The Goddess knows the truth! Continue reading

The Goddess loves this time of year, when the frost is on the pumpkin, the leaves are a riot of color and there’s just a slight chill in the air. It’s soup weather. It’s stew and chili weather. And it’s time to make pumpkin bread! Continue reading

For years I’ve seen Croque-Monsieur on menus and thought, “hmmm, a grilled cheese made into French toast…” Thanks, but I think I’ll pass. Then, I had this version…with béchamel…mmmm. Continue reading

This is a fun little breakfast or supper dish. I got this from the folks over at Serious Eats. Those people are geniuses. This is a slightly different way of folding the crêpe than we normally see. But, delicious these are. Continue reading

It’s almost strawberry season. I’m impatient. So, I purchase supermarket strawberries, just to get myself in the mood. They are almost always a disappointment, but oddly enough, even those work reasonably well with this lovely springtime dessert. Continue reading

This is a really nice addition to your Sunday brunch or for this season, Thanksgiving day breakfast. We had a slice with some salad for a nice, light supper, and as a side with a bowl of Creamy Mushroom-Pumpkin Soup with Sherry. I think if might be good with gravy, as in biscuits and gravy…just a thought! Continue reading

The Goddess knows a homemade hollandaise is always the way to go, but she’s a realist. She knows there are those among us, including herself, that periodically has a lapse and wants to just make things easy, so we use a mix. She forgives these little human foibles. Continue reading
