Take my Bread Away!

This fantastic bread recipe came with the Electrolux Magic Mill I got from my sister so I really can’t take credit for it. Bummer. I always like to be the inventor of recipes like these. But then again; I also wish I would’ve thought of Harry Potter before J.K Rowling did. Back to the bread. It’s a cheesy, mildly sweet, amazingly fluffy and incredibly flavorful bread that is real easy…

    Tomato & Mascarpone Pasta

    Actually, the title should have read: Tomato & Mascarpone Pasta with Garlic Bread. It’s a combination of flavors that’s highly addictive, and I’m so not exaggerating. You should see what happens when I hand a plate full of this to my kid! He opens that tiny mouth and just shoves two servings right in there. When it’s summer I crave simple, pure, and easy-to-prepare foods. Nothing too complicated, just laid-back…

      Savory & Spicy Cornbread

      I know cornbread is a very traditional type of food, and some of you will curl into fetal position and suck your thumb at the very thought of cornbread that is not sweet, smooth and unruffled. Better run and hide. Don’t say I didn’t warn you! You see, I’ve added sweet onion. I’ve added spicy jalapeño. I’ve added bacon. And last but definitely not least, I’ve added cheddar. It’s hearty….

        Curried Mango & Chicken Sandwich

        It’s been a while, but finally I have a new favorite sandwich. One that doesn’t involve bacon and avocado! My 12-stepper program is going very well, thank you. I’ve always been a major fan of chicken and fruit combinations, be it for dinner or lunch, and this particular combination works beautifully. It’s got it all, the whole roller coaster of flavors, textures and colors. I’m using mayonnaise as well as…

          Tex-Mex Biscuits

          This isn’t even a real recipe, it’s more like me going stark raving bonkers in the kitchen. Nothing new there, I know. Not even sure why I named it Tex-Mex. It seemed like the right thing to do. Here’s what happened: I was cleaning out my kitchen cabinets—for the sake of it, let’s pretend I do this more than twice a year—when I ran into an old Bisquick box that…

            Bacon and Egg Bread

            Breakfast heaven. Here’s a great way to kick start your day: eat your eggs and bacon inside your bread instead of on the side! Or on top. Girlfriend passed on this recipe (I tweaked it) and I got seriously excited just reading the directions. It’s so clever. Get this; the bread itself is spiked with black pepper giving it a wonderful flavor and kick! As if that’s not brilliant enough,…
