This is one of the best butternut squash casserole I have ever made. There were lots of flavors and textures going on. We made half of the recipe, I added some buttermilk powder into milk to make the buttermilk and used the dried thyme, otherwise followed the recipe exactly. It came out cheesy, sweet and tasty, but not too feeling heavy or rich afterwords, definitely a keeper!

Easy to make and good to use up leftover cooked chicken, better than Chicken Nuggets!

This was outstanding. A huge amount of flavor was developed in the slow and low technique using my slow cooker. A classic mostly hands-free make ahead main dish that filled the house with aroma.

TVP gives the lasagna beefy texture, the tomato sauce makes the lasagna juicy and flavorful; ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses add the creaminess and cheesiness . An absolutely delicious vegetarian lasagna that your meat lover friends may ask for second slice.

Very flavorful. I used baby bella mushrooms and it gave it more depth. If you want to double it be sure to add extra cooking time.

Classic simple, quick and easy fish cakes. One cake per serving for appetizer or two cakes per person for a main dish.

A long slow simmer makes this cheesy rich crowd pleaser a certain hit when company is coming.

Cheesy dumplings baked on top of creamy sauce with chunks of chicken, bacon, onions and mushrooms. All in one deluxe chicken dinner.

Another quick and easy chicken dish that is scrumptious to the last bite!

One skillet Chinese style beef and pepper stir fry. Makes a quick and easy all in one weeknight meal.

A succulent seafood pasta dish made with shrimp, clam juice and white wine.

A delicious casserole made with italian sausage, zucchini, rice and parmigiano-reggiano cheese.

Roasted cauliflower, a tangy and tasty soy-ginger dressing with fresh scallions, a delicious side-dish that you can serve with any main course; or just having it directly is a joy too!

So filling, and delicious! A good chili is always welcome by my family. Soaked up all the yummy sauce with our homemade dinner rolls. Hmmm, so good!

While visiting Seattle one summer, We ate at an upscale restaurant and I ordered a dish called Chicken and pine nuts in brown sause.. it was one of the best chicken dishes I've ever eaten.. and when I found this recipe, I was hoping it was the same one.. Well I think it is, if it's not exact, it's really close and it was so worth all the work to make it tonight.. Everyone enjoyed it..
