My mother and I made these cookies when I was little, many years ago, using the box of dry mincemeat. I have looked for years for the recipe, they are the best cookies ever!!!

Pork or veal schnitzel with a mushroom sauce topped with bacon. Perfect for Oktoberfest or any time you are hankering for German fare.

Cheesy juicy stuffed chicken breasts filled with bacon, ricotta and swiss cheese, pan fried until golden and served with a lemony white wine sauce.

Chocolate lovers beware! This moist and decadent chocolate cake recipe will have you hooked!

A delicious kind of salad made with mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, flaked coconut and whipped topping.

Chocolate shouldn't go together with "low-fat" but this decadent recipe will change this fact!

Very tasty. Just enough sauce to carry the creole flavors and meld the different types of protein together. Went a bit overboard by making our own Chorizo and homemade penne pasta. A great Creole recipe from down in New Orleans!

AKA The Dolly Parton diet, or The Cabbage Soup diet. An easy to make low-calorie, low-fat soup.

These apple and oat muffins are so moist, and they are delicious too, good for breakfast or a tasty snack.

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.

Add some cheese to your succulent chicken with this delicious recipe that uses parmesan cheese and a variety of spices.

I loved this recipe. I made this for my mom after her surgery and she loved it. I only used 1 box of spinach instead of 2 and I used real bacon and not bacon bits, other than that it was great!

This is an easy version of the traditional hot dog topping that's served by New York City street vendors.

Has a great flavor - very moist. A lighter color than some Banana Nut breads. The best I've ever tasted.

Absolutely delicious in every way. The lime and garlic marinade works it's wonders and permeated the loin wonderfully. (We marinaded for two days :) The onion marmelade paired perfectly, it actually tasted like apples and everything was easy to prepare.

I have made a Thanksgiving goose every year for at least 15 years. I have steadily gained on making the perfect bird but I finally found the greatest recipe ever in Cook's Magazine. The divine part of this approach to cooking the goose is that it employs some of the eastern method of drying the skin which is used in Peking Duck. The skin simply drops all its fat and leaves a crispy, dry, delectable skin that folks fight over! No more rubbery, yucky goose skin full of fat!
