Berries/8 recipes

An easy and tasty soup. It's hearty and delicious enough to make everyone feel happy, serve it with some bread to complete the meal.

Classic banana bread combined with plump juicy blueberries. Turns out moist and fluffy with rich banana aroma with big juicy bursts of blueberries (I used fresh berries) when eating. This takes banana bread to the next level.

Juicy tender pork medallions served with classic French steak Diane sauce for pork tenderloin. This quick and easy pork tenderloin recipe is ready in about 15 minutes flat.

It's not the double-down, but it's as close as you can get! The ultimate crunch and moistest lean pork chops you will ever experience.

A German take on pancakes. Very flexible, toss in some apples or other fruit and your children or hubby will love you.

This is an easy to make version of real homemade Canadian Bacon. Also known as peameal bacon in Canada. Works wonderfully for peameal on a bun.

I changed it up a bit by using both a red and green pepper and a can of stewed tomatoes. I cooked on low for a full 8 hours which made the meat extremely tender.

These lovely maple syrup roasted sweet potatoes are tasty with a nice crust to the skin, not mushy at all. The slightly tart but sweet carmelized exterior is a refreshing change to this classic fall vegetable.

Usually I have a certain degree of self control when it comes to my buttery treats. With this lemon cake, however, I will happily consume an entire loaf in a sitting without thinking twice. Do I regret it? NO! Bake it and you will understand. Thank you, Ina.

Ridiculously easy chicken, cheese with a mushroom marinara sauce that tastes great! This is a huge hit in our house, kids love it.

Looks great, tastes great. It is best to place it on a cookie sheet covered with foil in case there is any boil over when baking. This is a restaurant quality recipe, absolutely yummy.
