Cranberry Relish is an old-time recipe. My grandmother would make it for our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. The tartness of the cranberries and the sweetness apples and oranges meld together to make a wonderful relish.

Would you like a perfect fall salad? This salad uses fall crops like Brussels sprouts, apples, and pumpkin seeds which is then tossed with a tangy dressing. It is the perfect combination of sweet and tartness.

Roasted Garlic Tomato Burrata Caprese is the perfect topping to serve with this rustic sourdough Ciabatta. The flavors blend so well together and both are very easy to make but impressive to serve.

Pickled okra is crunchy with just a hint of garlic and dill. These pickled pods add a special touch to relish trays and are a southern specialty.

Sweet juicy peaches are now in season. If you have never tried Peach Salsa, you really must! The sweet from the peaches and the heat from the jalapenos are just perfect to the taste buds. Another appeal is that it pleases the eye with the lovely array of color!

Have you ever wanted to add a special gourmet touch to a hamburger or sandwich? I have just the item for you, Caramelized Onions? These sweet caramelized onions go great with any burger or even roast beef sandwiches. Try them, you will not be disappointed!

Homemade egg noodles are a Mennonite/German tradition. As a young girl my introduction into making noodles was by my grandmother and later on my mother-in-law. I still have my mother-in-law’s Atlas noodle maker and it has made many, many noodles.

Potatoes have been a staple in many countries for years. Did you know there are over 200 varieties of potatoes sold throughout the United States? The potatoes featured in this recipe are Yukon Golds. These potatoes have a lovely yellow color and a buttery flavor. Air Fried Potatoes Wedges are so good it is hard to stop with just a few. The outside layer is a bit crisp and the inside melt-in-your-mouth tender!

Spring is in the air as the days are longer, the sun is warmer, and of course time to start thinking of planting my garden. One veggie you will always find in my garden is eggplants. I love eating them in all kinds of ways.

If you have ever been in any Mennonite or Amish home for a meal you will understand the necessity (they think) of serving Buttered Noodles along with mashed potatoes! Their Pennsylvania Dutch background just loves the carbs and starches. Serving these two together at a meal is a must. Most times this dish is prepared using homemade egg noodles with lots of browned butter. My family loves noodles so I have modified this recipe. It continues to be a favorite, though I almost never serve it along side of mashed potatoes!
