This stuffing is savory, loaded with vegetables and herbs. You can add some sausage to this, if you wish, but it’s darn good without. You won’t miss the meat at all. Continue reading

Tomato Soup and grilled cheese. It’s a marriage made in heaven and it is truly a heavenly combination. Today is one of those chilly, rainy days that’s perfect for soup…and maybe a sandwich. It’s comfort food, but of course, there’s a twist. There’s always a twist with The Goddess. Continue reading

As you can see, there isn’t too much that’s green about this sauce, except the cilantro in the “red onion salsa”. There was a plan, but then I browned the meat, and it left behind a great fond, so what’s a Goddess to do? She goes to plan B, of course. And this is Plan B…Pork with Sweet Potatoes and Green Chiles!

I just ran across a recipe for Chicken Mole Casserole on the Food & Wine website. And I do mean I “just” found it. It sounded great; I liked the idea of it. It just seemed like the perfect thing for dinner, so I made it, or rather my version of it. And it was on the table in 20 minutes! What a great weeknight or Friday-night-after-work-instead-of-pizza dinner! Continue reading

The Sons and The Latin Lover revere gravy as if it’s an elixir that brings the Wisdom of the Ages to those that consume it. You know, like a food group unto itself. Continue reading

The Goddess loves Brussels Sprouts…they’re mini heads of cabbage for goodness sake. Who wouldn’t love them? This is a version of the soup I make in the autumn and winter months, but it is perfect for an after Thanksgiving meal. It’s filling without being too heavy, it will warm you to your soul… Continue reading

The Goddess has been thinking a bit about Thanksgiving. She has a lot to be thankful for, but packing up the house isn’t high on the list. She’s doing it way too slowly, but it’s going. But, I digress…what else is new? Continue reading

Do you ever forget about a recipe, then run across it, or find something that reminds you of it and you think, “I love that and had forgotten about it. I must make it NOW!” Well, that’s what happened to The Goddess last night. Continue reading

The Goddess just realized she has never done a dedicated post to gravy. What was she thinking? She’s teased you with snippets, little bits and pieces of “how-to”, but never really spelled it out…G-R-A-V-Y! If you’re not happy with your gravy, hopefully this post will help you make it perfectly! Continue reading

Now that we’re wandering into the Autumn, I’m beginning to think about heartier dishes. You know, good peasant food. The Goddess loves the bold, assertive flavors and stick-to-your-ribs quality that peasant food brings to the table. I think most people like that sort of food…at least the people who come to our table seem to! Continue reading
