As I may have mentioned a couple of times, The Goddess loves, loves, loves garlic. Is there such a thing as too much garlic? She thinks not. If garlic isn’t your thing, you need to stop reading right now. Go do something else and wait for the next post. But, if garlic is your thing, then read on, my friend, read on. Continue reading

You may remember, in the past…yes, The Goddess is a deity with a past! Everyone has a past, and goddess-willing, it’s interesting and rich with memories. Anyway, there were a couple of posts for Boliche and Boliche, Deconstructed, as well as picadillo. This is simply boliche in meatloaf form. An experiment going deliciously well! Continue reading

I had some mini-pepperoni that just seemed like they would be a nice addition to some lean ground beef…I was thinking maybe a taco-like thing, but The Latin Lover said, “We haven’t had meatloaf in a while. I love meatloaf”…well, what more could a Goddess want to hear? Continue reading

I really do so enjoy imitation crab meat. I know it’s not crab meat. I just like it. It’s never fishy when it’s heated. It has a nice consistency, it’s easy to work with and it just tastes so good. And it was really good in these patties. Continue reading

This is a gluten-free cake and if I didn’t tell you that, I doubt if you would realize it. It is delicious, moist and just slightly dense, but in a good way. This is from the King Arthur Flour™ website, with just a couple of minor additions…citrus zest!!! Continue reading

I love Boursin™ cheese, and I make a pretty decent facsimile, Almost Boursin Cheese Spread (Almost!) in a previous post. So anyway, I was sitting, sipping and musing. Goddesses do that sometimes. You should try it. The things one thinks up…and this was one of those things. Continue reading

A Bacon-Cheeseburger in liquid form. Seriously, this soup really does taste like the real deal. It’s a great soup for kids…of all ages! This is an excellent soup for Super Bowl Sunday (or any other day), and it tastes even better reheated. Continue reading

I had forgotten about this dish, which makes you wonder what goes on in my head that I could forget something this incredible. This is a rich, relatively easy and supremely delicious dish. It’s the stuff of memories. It is wonderful anytime, but by nature, it is a perfect dish to serve to the special people in your life. Continue reading

I love fritters. They’re a great way to use veggies. They’re a great way to use up leftover veggies and they’re fried. And anything fried is just better. Face it. It’s true. You know it’s true. 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
