This is one of my Grandmother’s Recipes made during the holidays … Originating other than in her kitchen. This and divinity were her candy specialities. I wasn’t a chocoholic in those days. It’s taken all these years to try out her recipe. Is it really similar to See’s Fudge, See’s being one of my favorites? Nope, but it’s mighty good just the same!
Right out of the 40’s! But I’ve heard Hash is making a comeback! Warning: This only has three ingredients not including salt and pepper the cooking makes all the difference in taste. Caramelization is the secret! A well-seasoned cast iron skillet or other heavy bottomed skillet will do … And the trick is to not turn or stir the ingredients frequently. Otherwise, the dish will be far from flavorful and you might find yourself adding bell pepper, salsa, avocado and any other ingredient you can think of to make up for the loss in taste.
So, you might be asking why try this! It’s tasty, quick, economical and well liked. Great for a quick dinner or a large breakfast spread.
This was last year! This year something different but what? Stay tuned! Enjoy this dinner recipe in the meantime, Standing Rib Roast Dinner.
This is what happens when you put too much topping. Catch the excess topping on a cookie sheet or parchment paper … The kids or the kid in you will love it!
These sticky buns are so simple to make. You’re just going to love these Easy Sticky Buns.
One of the meals I had as a kid! We called the potatoes scalloped incorrectly and often used Velveeta Cheese … Yikes! Not always successfully. I have changed a few things here including the cheese. But I haven’t increased the ingredient list … one of the great positives of this recipe. The prep is easy and quick. The potatoes need about 50-60 minutes baking time for the best flavor and texture.
The New York cut pork chops can be pan seared until done or quickly browned and baked for the last 5 minutes on top the potatoes. The baking can lead to dryness if not careful. A no fuss applesauce can be cooked up in 10-15 minutes from two Granny Smith apples and a few tablespoons of water. The perfect meal with few ingredients. Dress it up with spices if you like but I just like the simplicity.
This is a basic scone recipe with multiple flavor possibilities. It’s just ever so slightly sweet that adding meat or cheese isn’t out of place. Use it for your leftover turkey and cranberry sauce for a savory lunch or snack. Or simply add Meyer lemon zest and chopped cranberries for a more acceptable tea accompaniment. This scone recipe doesn’t remind one of sweet rolls or a sweet breakfast treat. It definitely has a biscuit taste and texture. Simple and few ingredients.

Lots of Family and Food over the last days. It’s been great fun! Thinking of what to do with my few turkey left overs. Decided to try out my new scone baking dish. And going to try adding a little of this and that to my recipe, making a variety. Maybe cranberries, turkey, cheese, Meyer lemon. The lemon tree is full this year. Can’t wait!
Since we look at scones as a breakfast food most often here are a few of past Kitchen Getaway Breakfast Recipes. And I’ve added the two Dinner Recipes below specific for cooked turkey. In the meantime, I’ll be in the kitchen coming up with some great scones to share with you later.
Isn’t this beautiful? This is my oldest son’s bread baking. I think I mentioned before … He is the perfect bread maker in the family. There is good reason … He is meticulous, doesn’t mind tedious and is detailed to a fault. That sounds like my accountant! Yep, he’s a CPA too. You can even see all these traits at work when visiting his kitchen here. Will has been making challah for our holidays for years. He is always searching for new recipes. How in the world do you improve on perfection! When he arrived yesterday with these in hand everyone pulled out their iPhone to get a shot. Seriously! We must give credit for the recipe to Karen Mordechai. She has a lovely new book, Sunday Suppers: Recipes + Gatherings. Will used her Challah recipe, changing the ingredients a bit but keeping the recipe instructions pretty much the same. Her recipe has become a quick favorite and definitely gives challah an amazing new look. Continue reading
