The relish that accompanies these slightly spicy cakes reminds me of the pickley olive salad you get in a New Orleans muffuletta sandwich; in fact, as a variation, I like to make salmon cake sandwiches.
Herb-infused tomatoes tango with garlic, artichokes, and cream a dance that renders pasta sauce with Mediterranean flair. Garnish this Garlic-Artichoke Pasta with your favorite cheese and sliced olives.
My husband says this dish is restaurant quality. It can be made ahead and kept in the refrigerator overnight. Very filling and great served with a salad and garlic bread.
Lemon pepper pasta served with sauteed garlic seafood. You can substitute the shrimp in this recipe with crab or scallops, or you could use a mixture of all three types of seafood.
Have a crowd to feed? This recipe for Sloppy Joes can be made ahead and put in the crock pot to be ready when you need it. Teenage boys have been known to go back for thirds.
This authentic Italian-style risotto is cooked the slow, painful way, but it's oh so worth it. It's the perfect complement for grilled meats and chicken dishes.
I love these mini pies because I can serve several different types together and everyone can select their favorite. This mini apple pie uses Granny Smith apples. I bought the mini pie dishes online, and they are really fun!
