Zuppa Toscana
Almost nothing is better on a cooler day than a pot of soup. This Zuppa Toscana is a family favorite. This is another great leftover to heat up for lunch, so I always make a full pot. This soup is easily made GLUTEN FREE! Just make sure the broth or chicken stock you...
Raspberry Hand Pies (Turnovers)
I am ALWAYS in for raspberries! In anything! It's my favorite berry by far. These are made with a butter pastry that is so flaky and delicious and it's easy to boot! These are a delight for almost any occasion. If you haven't made a butter pastry before it might sound...
Broccoli Noodle Soup
This is a different twist on traditional Broccoli Cheese Soup. It's my son Isaac's very favorite soup. It's pretty fast and easy so it's a great GO-TO for dinner. Years ago when my kids were little I made this with Velveeta, which you are welcome to do. But it is even...
Spinach Quiche
This is another delicious recipe from my mother-in-law. To learn about her and her recipes check out Myrna Ritz Approved. My kids LOVE this quiche! It is SO yummy that I use it as the foundation for all the quiches that I make. I have many variations coming soon! I...
Extremely Light Waffles
My husband grew up on these waffles. We were given a waffle maker for our wedding and used to make these waffles all the time together. Now when we make them we TRIPLE the recipe. The leftovers keep well for later. They are super easy to reheat in the microwave or...
Myrna Ritz Approved
This is Myrna Ritz, my mother-in-law. She is an amazing woman, and I have been so fortunate to learn so much from her over the last 24 years. She earned her Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education in the 1950's, which was not very common at the time. She later...
Dill Pickle Chip Dip
I have seen a version of this around a lot lately. We became obsessed with it! It's VERY addictive. And then we couldn't find it anymore! So, I decided to make it myself. It is really SO GOOD! Here you go! Three ingredients! Mix it up and enjoy! We do have a...
Orange Swirls
These are MY FAVORITE sweet rolls. As soon as I see snow in the forecast I buy oranges, I have to be prepared! It's also my favorite way to use my mother in law's recipe for Roll Dough. This recipe is cut down from the original to make 2 9x13 dishes of rolls or 24...
Bruschetta Dip
Several years ago, I went away on a girl's weekend trip with friends who all love food! One of our favorite things to do is share food, recipes and ideas. We are all assigned different meals to be in charge of. I always come away from those weekends with great new...
Lentil Soup
Do you like lentil soup? Have you ever tried it? You really really should. I have noticed lentil soup on more restaurant menus in recent years. Lentil Soup is truly a throw-back to a time when soaking beans for dinner was a regular thing. My grandma Mott used to make...
