Crockpot Pizza Potatoes
Oh yeah, this is exactly what you think it is. Combine everything good in this world that you would put on a pizza—tomato sauce, smoked sausage, onion, bell pepper and mozzarella—add your potatoes and let it simmer away. Couldn’t wait to see the reaction on J-man’s face, the biggest pizza lover on the planet, after he took a bite. And with me being the biggest potato lover on the planet, this…
Chai Tea Latte
Making a chai latte at home is peanuts, really. Trick is to get the Chai Masala (the spice mix) exactly right. Easier said than done, I know, but I put in the work for you! And as a result, I’ve been drinking serious amounts of chai latte trying to come up with the perfect mix ever since fonq mailed me these wonderful tea glasses. I whipped up a chai masala…
Slow Cooked Apricot Ribs
One of the perks of being a food blogger are the recipes I receive either as comments or in my inbox. It’s something I’m extremely grateful for—people willing to share their family recipes and taking the time to write them down—because many of the dishes I’ve tried and tweaked over the years come from either friends or readers. This basic recipe was emailed to me not long after I posted…

Back in those days it was hard (at least in the Netherlands) to get your hands on ingredients like fresh ginger, that’s one…
Best Mac & Cheese. Ever!
J-man was somewhere around 18 months when I cooked this for the first time. The recipe belongs to a woman who entered a contest at ABC for the best Mac ‘n Cheese. She submitted the winning recipe, and then I tweaked it because I can’t leave well enough alone. Now I’ve never really been a Mac & Cheese fan; in Holland we grow up on a different kind of macaroni….
Smoked Sausage & Sauerkraut Casserole
Run while you still can because this baby ranks high in the top 10 on how not to salvage your new years resolution! This is not low-fat, but with temperatures of -22 (-7F) during the night, we can use all the energy we can get here in the Netherlands. It’s like living in Siberia! A friend of mine passed this nothing short of amazing smoked sausage and sauerkraut casserole recipe…
