Came up with this delicious key lime slice recipe while in Key Largo, Florida. Similar to the Aussie Lemon slice but with a twist of the keys.

A classic old fashioned great American hash inspired by Julia Child's The Way to Cook. This is a great way to use leftover pork roast and the accompanying leftover vegetables. The key is to create a lovely tasty crust.

The whole family loved this recipe! The second time I made it I substituted some of the ketchup with chili sauce with no noticeable difference.

From the Castle Restaurant (Olean, NY) (now out of business). A copycat simplified home cook version that's easy to make.

This is my rendition of a recipe from an old Campbell's Soup cook book.

An American invention, this pasta salad is done right. Caramelized fennel and red onions with sun-dried tomatoes with a light vinaigrette.

This version of Salisbury Steaks uses dried wild mushrooms in a beefy red wine sauce. Regular mushrooms work well too. Ground round makes for a meaty steak and milk keeps them juicy.

My mother's recipe from a page torn out of a cookbook years ago. Great for leftovers.

Old-school authentic southern banana pudding. Sugar, if you ain't had banana puddin' in the South, you just ain't had banana puddin'. - Any Southerner

This version of the classic southern party snack is less greasy and feature a healthy dose of cheddar cheese and buttermilk for extra flavor.

Easy and tasty! I make this casserole a few times every year when I have spaghetti squash in my kitchen. It's a well-balanced meal with just enough protein and loads of vegetables.

This is based on a delicious Paula Deen chicken recipe. It makes a great appetizer and only uses 5 simple ingredients. I found the original recipe way too sweet so have modified it to be a bit less sweet and have added a spicy kick to balance out the sweetness.

Somewhat similar to chili mac and American goulash found in other areas of the country, this American dish is most prevalent in New England.

Southern Living meets the East. Sweet mashed potatoes with a modern Asian twist.

Soft and scrumptious biscuits that can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

A simple, tasty and heart-warming recipe for winter days.
