Throw Back Thursday...classic

Sometimes there's nothing better than a basic classic dinner. Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes with gravy and fresh Coleslaw....Oh My...that's delicious! To save yourself some extra calories, flash fry the chicken and then finish it in the oven and use chicken broth instead of heavy cream in your mash potatoes. Use both mayo and lite sourcream for your coleslaw....promise, it's as good as all the full fat dinner!

Home made Italian Sunday

I love nothing more than to cook food and watch my friends and family enjoy every last bite! After a day at the pool, I made Sangria by the glass, fresh pasta with a garlic tomato basil sauce with a hint of chili pepper and parmesan. Add a chicken parmesan topped with fresh mozzarella and basil and an Arugula salad with fresh mozzarella, tomato, parmesan, basil drizzled with balsamic and olive oil and fresh baguette with home made roasted garlic butter......heavenly way to end a weekend. Nothing better than the guests fighting over who gets the leftovers for lunch!

After a trip to NYC and a stop at a pie place that included sweet and savory pies, my daughter requested tonights dinner be ground turkey pot pie. I don't usually make it with ground meat but...hey why not! Turned out quite delicious actually!!
