Make Huevos Rancheros at Home!
We’ve been craving some spicy Mexican fare, so I put huevos rancheros on our meal rotation. Are you familiar with this Mexican farm egg dish? In its simplest form, it’s corn tortillas layered with refried beans, eggs and a homemade tomato sauce. Top it all with fresh Mexican cheese, diced avocado, sour cream and a sprinkle of cilantro. Or go rogue and add fresh salsa … Continue reading Make Huevos Rancheros at Home!
Huevos Rotos
Sorry, I messed up on this post regarding the potatoes. Here’s the corrected one:One food item I seldom have to buy is eggs. This week my “girls”/chickens have outdone themselves! And since we just harvested some of our potatoes, I’ll put those and the eggs together with onion, garlic, chorizo sausage and smoked paprika to make a skillet supper for my husband, Frank and myself. … Continue reading Huevos Rotos
Terrarium Mary Garden and Frittata with Herbs for Mom
Before I begin, I just found a lot of super information about plants for terrariums on The Spruce site – https://www.thespruce.com/great-terrarium-plants-847877 so check this out, too! Mary Gardens were started during medieval times and were usually gardens that were enclosed, often in monasteries. I have always felt that an herb garden needs a statue of Mary, even before I had ever heard about Mary Gardens. … Continue reading Terrarium Mary Garden and Frittata with Herbs for Mom

Streusel Coffee Cake, Deviled Eggs for Easter
As I write this column, we are still sheltering in place. And thinking about Easter. Maybe you are, too. Instead of our annual Easter brunch and egg hunt, we’ll be celebrating on a smaller scale. Yet there’s still much to feel blessed about. Just take a walk outside. Check out the beautiful wild violets and blooming forsythia. (They both make lovely jellies.) Trees are bursting … Continue reading Streusel Coffee Cake, Deviled Eggs for Easter
My “Clone” Frisch’s Pumpkin Pie
This week Matt Swaim of the Sonrise Morning Show, Sacred Heart Radio, talked about cloves. Of course, cloves are an ingredient in pumpkin pie spice. Cloves are mentioned here in the Bible: Chronicles 9:9: When the Queen of Sheba heard of Solomon’s fame, she went to him and gave him rare jewels and spices, including cloves. Cloves were a rare spice in Bible days. Cloves … Continue reading My “Clone” Frisch’s Pumpkin Pie
Pad Thai – Here’s an Easy and YUMMY Recipe and Vietnamese Cilantro/
I was really hungry for Pad Thai, that delicious Thai stir fry with rice noodles. Going through my recipes, I ran across a favorite from Jaime Carmody, Chef Proprietor of Out of Thyme Kitchen Studio in Symmes Township here in Cincinnati. It was from 2016! Seems just like yesterday that Jaime and I cooked together. I’ve adapted her recipe slightly. It’s worth buying small bottles … Continue reading Pad Thai – Here’s an Easy and YUMMY Recipe and Vietnamese Cilantro/

So as promised Matt Swaim on the Sunrise Morning Show, here again are recipes that I hope will become traditions in your family. Some dyes use ingredients you most likely already have. They don’t … Continue reading Eggs Colored with Natural Dyes and Marbled Eggs
