THE BEST GUACAMOLE YOU WILL EVER EAT

I’m a guac fan! Especially when the avocado and the rest of the ingredients are super fresh. Do you make homemade guacamole? You really should try this recipe!

HOLIDAY BEEF BRISKET

I had this yummy brisket for Christmas dinner! It’s a great slow cooker recipe when you have a crowd or need a company worthy meal and don’t want to fuss. It will only look and taste like you did!

SCRUMPTIOUS SUMMER RHUBARB GALETTE

We have rhubarb growing in our raised bed garden. It’s a delicious, tart vegetable that eats like a fruit. Rhubarb is the perfect pie filling, jam and sauce. I first had it at my paternal Grandmother’s farm in Missouri when I was a little girl. It’s tangy and has a strawberry kind-of flavor.

SUPER EASY FASNACHTBALLS

Easy peasy and so so fun to make and eat. Start with refrigerator pizza dough in a roll and see how it transforms into these sweet donut balls. I make this on Shrove Tuesday… the day before Lent.

CHRISTOPHER’S SHEPHERD PIE

One of my son’s favorite dishes. Shepherd’s pie is the ultimate comfort food… and a one dish meal! I’ll tell you a little secret… I hate peas! So if you are not a pea fan you can use any other hearty veggies like carrots or pearl onions.

If you want to gourmet it up, use ground lamb, round steak, cremini mushrooms or some red wine.

VERTICAL APPETIZER

I think presentation counts! Elevate (pun intended) a simple cheese tray into something so so pretty!

FEED A CROWD FRENCH BREAD PIZZA

Any time I serve french bread pizza I get rave reviews. This is such a universal favorite. Don’t tell anyone just how easy it is to make!

THE BEST COLESLAW YOU WILL EVER EAT

Coleslaw gets a bad rap. This colorful side dish is creamy and crunchy and so good!

NANI’S SAUTEED RICE

My Nani’s rice is not your regular rice dish. My grandmother made this and I’m sure her mother did too. I would say if you try one thing in this post, this should be it!

SCRUMPTIOUS CLAM CHOWDER

Who doesn’t love a good clam chowder. “Nuff said!

BEAUTIFUL AND SCRUMPTIOUS PEAR TART

I love a dish or dessert that has a WOW FACTOR. It is beautiful and totally amazing to eat. This pear tart has that special WOW FACTOR!

DELICIOUS ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

Here’s where delicious (yes, I know I say that word a lot) meets good-for-you. And you won’t believe how easy it is too. I have tons of containers of this soup in my freezer!

TORTELLINI WITH SAUSAGE AND PUMPKIN PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE

It does not need to be fall to enjoy Tortellini with Sausage and Pumpkin Parmesan Cream Sauce. It’s perfect any time of year… and company worthy too.

FRESH AND DELICIOUS BAJA FISH TACOS

Oh, these are killer fish tacos! Filled with crunch and lots of fresh flavors. YUM-MMEEEE!

APPLE CROISSANT BITES

These bites are quick and easy and a must-try! Serve them with a good vanilla ice cream.

SCRUMPTIOUS SOUTHWEST PASTA SALAD

If you want a great twist on pasta salad try it southwest style. LOVE the crunchy nachos on the top!

THE BEST GINGERSNAP COOKIES YOU WILL EVER EAT

This gingersnap dough can be frozen in a roll and cut off to make homemade cookies whenever the urge strikes you. Gingersnap cookies are best eaten right out of the oven as soon as they cool.

EASY AND DELICIOUS PIZZA ROLL UPS

Here’s another food that can be frozen and baked. I keep pizza roll ups on hand for appetizers or lunches.

FREEZING SUMMER HERBS

My herb garden grow riotous! And I preserve the wonderful taste of summer to use all year long. I’ll show you how freeze most herbs to add fresh flavor to you dishes.

TOMATO AND RED PEPPER PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE

Another must0-try! If you are a pasta lover you’ve gotta try Tomato And Red Pepper Parmesan Cream Sauce.

SCRUMPTIOUS MAYONNAISE CRUSTED SALMON IN A LEMON DILL SAUCE

There are a few tricks to make perfectly cooked salmon. Moist, flaky and filled with mild flavor. This recipe will yield you no fail salmon!

HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT FRITTATA

I think everyone should learn to make a frittata. It can be eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner! I love frittatas because you can add refrigerator leftovers to eggs and get an amazing meal!

RUGELACH COOKIES

I tried for years to make a Rugelach cookie that was worth eating and posting. This is it!

I hope you will save this to your Food or Recipe Pinterest board. Then you can pull up this virtual cookbook when you want to make a StoneGable approved dish!
