Holly's Crockpot Seafood Cheese Dip recipe

Seems odd but the crispy tacos actually go well together and kids love it because it appeared on the kids television show, iCarly.

Much better than the take-out meal, and the best is that I can control what go into my dish. Quite easy to make, and it tasted delicious.

A very tasty and refreshing salad, it's a perfect side dish with barbecued meat.

From the kitchen of Brian Evans

Crispy skin, moist chicken thighs with a deep mahogany flavor from the flavorful Asian inspired ingredients. A great one skillet meal. The fat from the skin is rendered and discarded while the dark meat stays moist.

Aussie style meatloaf that's packed with flavour.

A classic Mexican dish is full of flavor and layers of textures. Make this delicious yet filling meal for weeknight or weekend dinner.

Barbeque Meatballs recipe

So to start off with the first post, I decided to make a meal that screams of comfort food. Whilst it does take a bit of a while to get the meal done, once you take that first bite, heaven couldn’t seem closer if you were Adam trying to touch God’s finger in the “Creation of Adam” fresco created by Michaelangelo. The meal I speak of is Cottage Pie. There is much debate as to what exactly a cottage pie is and how it is different to a Shepherd’s pie...I don’t know. The dominant theory is that Sheperds pie uses lamb mince, whilst a cottage pie uses beef mince. I don’t know about you, but the term “Sheperds Pie” does not get my tastebuds going quite as well, so I prefer the term cottage pie. Besides, comparing the price of ground (mince) beef to ground lamb, a student would pick up the beef mince in a heartbeat without even so much as glancing at the lamb in the meat section. This cottage pie that I made is full of flavour, and just makes you want to cuddle up next to a fire and watch TCM movies all day either by yourself, or with a significant other. Here is the recipe:

An incredibly simple way to prepare the chicken.. wonderful rosemary aroma (I used fresh leaves).. tasteful lunch.. thanks a lot..

Buttermilk Fried Chicken recipe

Breakfast Bread Pudding with Sausage/Ham recipe

"Kohlrouladen" used to be a staple on the menu for regular people in Germany during winter time. The relatively long preparation and cooking time pays out, because it can be easily reheated over a couple of days and gets even better and tastier then. Fried potatoes complete the picture, but you can cook the potatoes also in the pot with the sauce, if there is space left. This recipe can be varied in many ways, be it the stuffing (ground meat here), or the sauce. The recipe is as traditional as it can be; the ingredients are adjusted to availability in North America (like Savoy cabbage in lieu of "Weisskohl", bacon to replace "Speckwuerfel"). For sure the ground meat can vary depending on preferences or diets - I bet quite often in the "good old times " regular people did not exactly know what's in the ground meat they got from the butcher - at least it was some meat, for most of the families only once a week.

These meatballs were great, and my kids really loved them. Will make it again.
