Bread Pudding Quest
When it comes to bread pudding, I always remember my mom’s. I think she makes one of the best bread puddings, but I have never been able to duplicate it. She doesn’t have a recipe, she says she just puts enough milk, eggs and sugar to moisten whatever leftover breads she has and pops it […]

Winter Chili con Carne
You can tell by the number of soup posts lately that the weather has gotten cold. This is a thick and hearty meal that also provides a lot of warmth within. We had this with corn casserole, and it was wonderful! As usual, I had to make two pots, one spicy and the other not […]

I had to make minor adjustments to the recipe […]

Pig’s Feet Paksiw
I have been tracking Manang’s posts on the unwanted parts of pork, and she got me hankering for something sinful, and I have been eyeing these pig’s feet at the grocery store for some time but I wasn’t sure how to cook them. So I too referred to Sassy’s recipe for paksiw na pata.

Spinach Noodle Soup
Here is one more, and promised to be the last mention of turkey. For a while anyway. I had made turkey broth and froze a quart of it for future use. The opportunity to use it came up when The Clone asked for soup this weekend. She loves noodles, and soup, but rather than giving […]
