Lemon Pastry Crust Blueberry Pie
Amazing lemon crusted blueberry pie needs no topper! This rich buttery lemon pastry crust is so easy. You’ll want to use it with other pie fillings too. Here it makes such a great combination with blueberries. To avoid a soggy crust I suggest baking the pie crust completely before adding the filling. You then can choose to add the uncooked sweetened berries and bake again, or you can choose to cook your berries stovetop and add to the baked pie shell.
There is no topper necessary for this pie but a dab of creme fraiche or whipping cream is always appropriate.
This is a side dish with a main dish capability. It’s a great vegetarian meal. Add a hardboiled egg on the side per person for a hearty meal. The recipe comes together quickly with pantry ingredients.
It’s really about Cheese Dip … not the meal I turned it into! Cheese Dip just sounded a perfect addition to Super Bowl Sunday. To use Velveeta or not? I went with the tradition but after tasting a slice I realized this isn’t the Velveeta of my youth. Now What? All this Velvetta! Here’s what I did.
Easy delicious recipe! Really does taste like a baked potato with all the fixin’s. This recipe is inspired by the New York Times recipe with a few prep changes to help assure a smoother soup and no curdle. It’s a perfect super bowl addition. Leave those potatoes a bit chunky for the guys who need something to sink their teeth into.
How about this for a Holiday Meal. So easy and So delicious. Another dinner prepped by my oldest! This recipe uses the canned tomatoes we had shipped from Italy. 
A great chili variation! But don’t take my word for it … Give it a try! This is a quick pantry recipe when you want something healthy & hearty but don’t have a lot of time to cook. If you’re a purest (cooking all the beans from scratch) it’s a tasty recipe worth the effort.
Yep, I love pasta! When I see a pasta dish that looks this good I’ve got to try it! This pasta dish was inspired by the Pasta Queen as seen in the Fall Recipe Issue of William Sonoma California catalog. I made the recipe as is the first time around but found it a little bland … lacking depth. (Admittedly, I just recovered my taste & sense of smell after a bout of covid.) I’ll stick with my additions. Give this a try if you love pasta and of course peas.
