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 [...]

I spent nearly seven years as a vegetarian; those years were spent subsisting mainly on hummus, cheese and big green salads. I long ago enthusiastically re-entered the omnivore world* but still spend a great deal of time conveying hummus to my mouth on various crudites and pita chips. Hummus is the first rite of spring that I [...] The recipe I am about to share with you is, emphatically, not ‘Dude Food’. Oh sure, guys will eat it. They’ll like it, maybe even love it. But this is designed with me in mind, and I, quite emphatically, did not want ‘Dude Food’ today. It was bright and sunny and warm and altogether spring-like all day [...] 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. 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 [...] I’ve talked a great deal about frugal foods and menu planning in my last few posts. There’s no doubt about it, one of the most budget-friendly foods you can make is beans! But that’s not why I’m posting this recipe today. I’m posting it because it’s STINKIN’ AWESOME! And because it’s cheap. I thought you should [...] Looks tasty, doesn’t it? It’s crisp around the edges with the perfect balance of saltiness and creaminess in the center. It’s nourishing. It’s delicious. It fills you up. It only takes five minutes to make from start to finish. But you know what else dings my chimes about this dish? It costs $3.42 for four large [...] This is the second installment of my Southern New Year’s Foods series. Happy New Year! Really, The Evil Genius and I complete each other. While I sit here on the couch with the laptop, contemplating pimiento cheese, he is watching ‘Alien vs. Predator’ and talking about which characters he thinks will be eaten. So see? We’re both [...] Thank you all so much for spending time with me here at Foodie with Family. To those of you who have visited me regularly through the year, thank you for your continued support. It has meant the world to me to get to know you all. And to those who are new, Welcome! I hope you [...] Tradition; that inexplicable tie that binds across generations. It’s the only reasonable way to explain an entire nation of people roasting turkeys on the fourth Thursday of November and grilling on the fourth day of July. Without it we would be hard-pressed to justify hundreds of people gathering annually in a tiny town in Pennsylvania on [...] |
