Since 2018, I have been experimenting with converting recipes to sugar-free, substituting Monk* sweetener for sugar. I also have been trying to use fewer wheat products for no reason but to be able to find alternatives. So, this recipe is gluten-free, but it does use...

I recently made a good Cabbage Sausage stew, but it didn’t knock my socks off. I wanted something heartier–richer. So, since my husband and I were going to be interviewing and supporting the team of a famous Gypsy Cobb Horse #TeamCheezy, I decided to give...

This stew came about after seeing another cabbage recipe. It struck a chord with me, so I decided to try it in a stew. I found a few I liked and made it my own, so hope you will give it a try. OH! I should warn you that this makes a big batch, so cut it in half for...

When I was little my mother made an oatmeal cookie with corn flakes and coconut. It was a good cookie but these days, I’m not crazy about refined coconut and I’m not buying cornflakes just to make cookies. So when I stumbled onto an interesting recipe, I...

I was browsing Pinterest for turkey recipes when I ran across a tempting recipe for grilled turkey and brie. Well, I’m not a huge fan of brie but one thing I love about Thanksgiving is a fresh Turkey sandwich with alfalfa sprouts, cream cheese, and cranberry....

Chicken is one of the mainstays of our diet but it gets boring sometimes. Because we live in an apartment, we are not allowed gas or charcoal grills, so we got an electric grill. I was looking forward to grilling some chicken and had lots of limes and cilantro to use...

Winter is almost over but Beef Stew still warms the heart. The way I make it it is almost like pot roast but you eat it in a bowl. Recently, I made this for our last day of Accounting class (did I mention that we are both working on our MBA degrees?). It was a huge...

I like summer but I love it when the weather turns to fall and fall turns to winter because that is soup season. I love making my lentil stew, chicken soup but I’ve come to love this recipe. Took me a couple of tries to get it the way I like but when I learned...

Lentils were not something I had a child but one day we were eating at an Italian restaurant that offered a lentil stew, so I decided to give it a try and I LOVED it! As I was eating it, I would pick out ingredients and then decided to give it a try at home. Over the...

I was out shopping in Grand Rapids (MI) and stopped in to get some shrimp for a low country boil I was making for a fellowship group we attend. The Fish Lads is a place I can go to get high-quality fresh seafood. They are ALWAYS helpful responding to my numerous...
