You can easily make your own herbed cheese with cream cheese and herbs; using something like Boursin saves a step. We are taking chicken breasts, pounding them thin, stuffing them with Boursin, and basil, and rolling them up tightly. Then coating them with breadcrumbs and Parmesan and baking! 2 (1/2-pound) skinless, boneless chicken breasts Fresh basil leaves or other green such as beet green, Swiss chard, spinach, enough to cover each chicken breast...

Waffles for supper are an especially comforting way to end the day. They’re relatively quick to make from scratch and they change up the meal routine in an unexpected way. Any break in routine feels slightly festive, no matter how simple. Speaking of festive, these sweet potato waffles would be a great choice to serve a house full of guests on a holiday weekend. They’re good any time of day, really – breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner....

Whiskey Sours have been around for a long time, and at their simplest they’re made with just whiskey, citrus, and a sweet ingredient, like simple syrup. But add just one or two special ingredients to that recipe, and you have a very different drink entirely. The History of the Whiskey Sour The recipe for a Whiskey Sour first appeared in print in 1862, in a book called The Bartender’s Guide by Jerry Thomas....

Baked Omelette Roll-Up I am never making omelettes the old way again! These omelette roll ups are so much easier and taste every bit as good!!! I don’t know about you but I struggle with making an omelette look good, it always breaks on me and sticks to the pan! And then there is the issue of them being difficult to feed several people because you can only cook them up one at a time....

This drink, containing both coffee liqueur and fresh espresso, has enough caffeine to perk you up at any time, day or night. It’s also much sweeter than a typical martini. In addition to its vodka and espresso base, an espresso martini includes the addition of coffee liqueur and crème de cacao. The History of an Espresso Martini The espresso martini, originally called the vodka espresso, was invented in the early 1980s in London by Dick Bradsell at the Soho Brasserie....

Sloppy Joes The last two summers, our parents served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at the Heber Valley Girls Camp in Northern Utah. They often called us to fill us in on the different recipes they had at their weekly potluck with the other missionaries. This particular recipe for sloppy joes is the one they raved about again and again. When my mom showed me the recipe I was like “Oh, yeah, sure Mom…I will have to make this sometime”…but kept putting it off....

There are a few ingredients in this classic Indian style rice that you may not have in your cupboard, but I suggest that they would be excellent additions if you don’t already have them. Cardamom pods are expensive, but they pretty much last forever. Ground cardamom will get flat after a year or so, but the cardamom seeds seem to keep for years within the pods. Mustard seeds are tiny, but they pack a punch....

What Is Monkey Bread? Monkey bread is made by rolling tender, fluffy dough in cinnamon sugar and baked in a Bundt pan with a generous drizzle of melted butter and brown sugar. It’s simply made for sharing. It’s like the best part of a cinnamon roll (the gooey inside), but an entire cake of it. It may sound too good to be true, but it gets better. It’s so easy to make you can throw it together for breakfast in the morning with no hassle and no waiting for the dough to rise since it uses canned store-bought buttermilk biscuit dough....

My mother is a self-described cake person (“There are cake people and there are pie people. I’m a cake person.”) who gets dreamy eyed just thinking about this pound cake. So, when Mrs. Adams prepared this cake (among several other desserts) for a neighborhood party, I couldn’t wait to try it. It really was divine! Perfect. When I stopped by to get the recipe I captured the Adams granddaughter four-year-old Marly eyeing the cake....

How Are These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Only Three Ingredients? Three ingredient cookies…too good to be true? That’s what I thought when my daughter brought home this recipe one day and insisted on making them immediately. But she was right, they were delicious! Besides that, they’re easy! They’re full of pumpkin spice flavors, fragrant ginger and cloves without having to measure out a bunch of spices. We make them often, especially when cookie cravings strike and we don’t have time for a longer recipe....

The stew is decidedly southwestern in ingredients and flavor (hence the name “Santa Fe”). With the cooler weather setting in, I picked the last of my garden jalapeños and poblanos to include in this stew. Chunks of pork shoulder are browned and then slowly cooked with onions, garlic, red bell peppers, jalapeños, molasses, and a spice mix with cinnamon, cumin, and oregano. We include some corn meal to help thicken the stew....
