After my admonition to remember coleslaw and beans in the Corn Dog Bread post I realized something; I had loads of bean recipes here on Foodie With Family, but not one single coleslaw. That was a problem requiring an immediate remedy.
You will note that the word ‘law’ is contained within the word ‘coleslaw’. That is because [...]
Welcome to part II of the series of component dishes (Part I, Candied Jalapenos a.k.a. Cowboy Candy, can be read here!) to make the transcendent ‘Second to Naanwich’ that still has me obsessed almost two weeks after eating it. While you can definitely buy Greek yogurt from the store to complete this dish, the homemade variety [...]
This last week, my baby brother Luke told me admiringly that I had finally done it.
“To which it do you refer?” I inquired.
“IT!” said Luke.
Luke was referring to this.
This sandwich blew my mind. It was the perfect sandwich. I do not use the phrase ‘perfect sandwich’ lightly. It is a very serious appellation to [...]
If I live to be a thousand years old I will never exhaust the possibilities offered by beans. And what is there not to like about beans? They are- all at once- so inexpensive, so nutritious, so easy to store, so delicious, so versatile.
If you’ve been with me here at Foodie With Family for a while [...]
This past weekend I officially became my mother.
If you’ve been reading me for a while, you’re aware that I am the eldest child in a large family that includes a baby sister. This baby sister of mine is still in high school. Sadly, she is not hopelessly stupid. No, she’s in high school because she’s [...]

I love barbecue; real barbecue. I’m talking about meat that falls apart when a fork looks at it because it was cooked for hours over the smoking remnants of fruit trees. I refer to the method that requires hours of time spent lovingly tending a fire outdoors and turning and mopping meat. Please let this [...]
These muffins won’t win any beauty contests. They’re not the prettiest muffins on the block. They have a muffin face only a mother could love. But man-oh- man, they’re delicious. Let me break it down for you…
They have bacon. That alone should be enough to convince you.
They have Swiss cheese both in them and toasted on [...]
We’ve been enjoying a lot of the foods that go along with this season, hot teas and cocoa, soups, homemade breads and muffins, and I’ve been coming up with some interesting combinations as I work through my pantry. In one of my ‘what will I find in here today’ searches, I found a lonely cup or [...]
My father has told me more than once that he has one huge regret about how he raised my siblings and me. If he could go back and do it all over again, he would not teach us to love potato skins and the heels of bread loaves because he had to fight for every one [...]
