    Potato Au Gratin Puffs

    Mother’s Day is this Sunday and newspapers and television stations are filled with Mother’s Day brunch advertisements. Brunch the best of breakfast and lunch. My mom and I both love brunch.ย  She loves it for she canย get her banana nut

    One Pot Chicken Pot

    Mmmmmm, Chicken Pot Pie! It is like a warm comforting hug. My second favorite comfort food of all time (after macaroni and cheese, of course!!). I rememberย as a child anxiously awaiting the ding of the oven for my chicken pot

    Have leftover Easter eggs? EAT them!! Did you know throwing away ONE egg is wasting ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฑ ๐—ด๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ, equivalent to leaving your kitchen faucet running for ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ฎ๐ญ๐ž๐ฌ! Crazy, so it'd be crazy not to enjoy a batch of deviled eggs, scotch eggs or potato or egg salad. Hard boiled eggs also make for quick and easy breakfast protein bowls, too. Feeling indulgent? Make good old-fashioned creamed eggs on toast and top with caviar! #useitup #dontwastefood #leftovermakeover #eastereggs
    Leftover ๐›๐š๐ค๐ž๐ ๐›๐ž๐š๐ง๐ฌ? Make ๐—ฆ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐˜† ๐—๐—ผ๐—ฒ๐˜€! Need a quick way to enjoy #nationalsloppyjoeday today? Use those leftover baked beans (or even grab a can). Simply brown ground beef, chicken, turkey, or tofu crumbles and mix in baked beans until heated. I like to add diced tomatoes, too. Put mixture on toasted buns. Enjoy! #sloppyjoe #sloppyjoeday #foodwastetip #leftovermakeover
    A little bit of veggie pasta and 2 slices of garlic bread from last night's dinner becomes a happy hour appetizer today. I love using leftover spaghetti or any pasta dish to make quick ๐—™๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ต ๐—ฏ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐˜‡๐˜‡๐—ฎ. I add the pasta and a garlic clove (because can there ever be enough garlic?!) to a processor, blend with some cream cheese until smooth. Spread it onto the leftover garlic bread slices, top with a little mozzarella cheese, and bake for 15 minutes at 375*. Perfect accompaniment to a glass of chianti! #leftoverpasta #gottaloveleftovers #leftovermakeover
    Leftover ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด๐˜€? Add to ๐›๐ซ๐จ๐œ๐œ๐จ๐ฅ๐ข! Donโ€™t waste those few remaining onion rings. Put leftover rings into processor and pulse into crumbs. Crumble over fresh broccoli tossed with olive oil. Bake in 425 degree oven for 10 minutes or until tender. #leftovermakeover #foodwastetip #onionrings #broccoli
    Move over chicken noodle soup...you have been replaced with Crawfish Noodle Soup. Another cold and rainy day in Louisiana, lucky for me it's also crawfish season, which means ๐ฅ๐ž๐Ÿ๐ญ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ ๐œ๐ซ๐š๐ฐ๐Ÿ๐ข๐ฌ๐ก tails and crawfish shell stock in the freezer at the ready! Anyone else like me and prefer a higher noodle to stock ratio in a soup? #leftovermakeover #crawfishtime #louisianaseafood #crawfishtails
    What a fun cook-a-long I had this afternoon with Chef Gabby of @cooking.on.wheels for Rare Disease Day. Did you know 1 in 10 Americans have a rare disease? I didn't, I learned that today from @globalgenes while cooking. Thanks to @rachaelray for her Chicken Ragu recipe and for kicking off the cook-a-long with these great words, "Sharing food and love with each other no matter how far apart is who we are." So true in these times and I was grateful to share my time this afternoon in my favorite place, the kitchen, with friends some known and some new. Now...to dig into dinner! ๐Ÿ˜‹ Wearing my stripes! ๐Ÿฆ“ #rarediseaseday #nationalrarediseaseday #cookalong #cookingbenefit
