Peachy Casserole

Giving my favorite almost fall dish an ice bath.
Yep, that's sweet potato, Yukon golds, onion, butternut squash, tomatoes, green peppers, corn and peaches.
I've been making this forever, it's second only to my beloved French Onion Soup….

Whenever your making soups especially its a good idea to cool them down before you put them in the fridge to avoid that forsaken "temperature danger zone" of 41 F to 140 http://www.drmirkin.com/goodfood/main_dishes7.html

Enjoying a beet burger on top of a bed of arugula with pine nuts and a pumpkin seed sauce that is totally incredible...Really.
That's a kale salad with a bunch of other goodies you see on the side. LOVE IT!!

Chocolate Chip cookies with a bit of a twist

Time for milk & cookies.

These are a traditional chocolate chip cookie with corn meal swapped out for some of the flour.
Try it. Pick out your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and swap out about 25% of the flour for cornmeal. This gives the cookie a nice understated crunch and a subtle layer of sweetness.

BLUE CHEESE and BACON DIP

Pool side appetizer 

We enjoyed this decadent dip poolside.
When was the last time you went to a get together and somebody brought a dish that was new to everybody? Something that wasn't picked up at the local discount club? Something that did not pretend to be low cal or low fat?
This particular dish is pure unashamed indulgence. 

 BLUE CHEESE and BACON DIP

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
10 strips of your favorite cooked bacon

Mix and serve in your favorite dish.
Serve with Flipsides Pretzel Crackers.

Strawberry Jam

Super Wife has been busy making strawberry jam. These berries were picked today and they taste every bit as they are pretty.

This came to me during the invocation for NASCAR so it has to be a God thing. Homemade Linguine noodles that Super Wife cranked out on Grandma's pasta machine. The noodles are messing about in a creamy cheddar sauce and Canadian Bacon with some asparagus tagging along for the ride. "Gentleman Start Your Engines"!!!

Happiness in a cup….

Good morning. This is your quadruple espresso speaking. Close that deal, swing that hammer, crunch those numbers,raise those youngins, capture that perfect shot, true that wheel, administer outstanding care. You get the idea…whatever your chosen profession ENJOY.
