January 5, 2011 Rachael Ray Cornbread and Chorizo Stuffing

I saw this recipe for cornbread chorizo stuffing on Rachael Ray (11/17/10) and decided to give it a spin. I changed it up a little bit to suit our taste. So cut up store bought corn bread muffins- I happen to like the ones from Sudbury Farms/Roche Brothers. Put them in the oven to dry […]

November 22, 2010 Pumpkin Pudding

http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/pumpkin-pudding/ I saw this recipe years ago in the Rachael Ray show. I made it, brought it to Thanksgiving dinner and it was an instant success.

February 17, 2010 Whole Foods follow up

So I made a great recipe that I saw on Rachel Ray with the ricotta gnocchi from Whole Foods. I haven’t found many places that have ricotta gnocchi, which I usually prefer to its potato counterpart. I copied the recipe below. I changed the recipe slightly. I left out the onions and the wine, and […]

February 14, 2010 Breakfast Tart with Pancetta and Green Onions

I saw this recipe on the food network. I made it twice and was pleasantly surprised when it turned out so well. It’s important to make sure to let the tart cool after you take it out of the oven, otherwise it will run all over the place. It’s so easy to make! I used […]
