Croissant Egg Brunch Bake is a very special recipe. This is a recipe that has very simple ingredients and can be made ahead of the event making it a very easy dish.  This egg bake has some delicious flavor combination and I like to top it with seasonal fruits. I love serving this brunch dish for special occasions, it is always a winner and absolutely delicious!

  When I was developing this recipe, it brought me back a bit to the days when my Mother would make a similar recipe for my Dad. This is a very simple recipe that is loaded with flavor. I got my cutlets on sale which gave me even greater incentive to develop this recipe, and I am so glad I did. The Thyme Gravy is just a bonus, but how could we have fried cutlets without some gravy. We so enjoyed this dish and will be making the recipe over and over in the future.

  Our BLT Pasta Salad is a delicious salad any time of the year, but when it is really hot outside, this cold salad topped with crispy bacon is perfect for a salad luncheon or a lite supper. We mix the pasta  with a fantastic homemade dressing that we keep in the refrigerator and enjoy using  on other salads. It is a great salad to just have in the refrigerator, just waiting for that one person who will come and stand with the door open just looking for the right thing to eat, you know the kind, there is one in every house. Hope you enjoy the recipe!

I love Mediterranean cuisine, it is always very fresh and lite with flavors that we really enjoy here at the cottage. This is a recipe that takes very little time and ingredients, it all goes into a zip lock bag and stays there overnight. Next day we thread it on the skewers and on to the grill. A few minutes on the grill and enjoy the delicious platter full of goodness!

We really enjoy a great pot roast with all the wonderful root vegetables roasting slowly in the blend of seasons and juices. Our vegetables for this pot roast came right out of our garden, and there is no flavor like garden vegetables. This is a very easy recipe that will serve a crowd or give you some nice freezer meals with your left over's. We often times take the left over's and make small individual freezer meals that sure are nice on a busy day! 

Our Ham & Cheese Garden Strata is a great recipe for a brunch. We have a weekend brunch just about every weekend that we are in town and often we have guest that join us. This is one of the delicious recipes that I like to prepare for our brunch here at the cottage. The recipe has little bits of ham, cheese and some fresh garden vegetable's with a base of crusty bread, eggs and milk. The flavor of this strata is awesome, it can be made the night before and baked the next morning, a great dish for entertaining.

We love to go to the State Fair Of Texas, one of the reasons I love the fair is the food. Corn Dogs are one of the special treats that I always have at the fair. This year the fair has been cancelled and we will not be able to enjoy our wonderful corn dogs from the fair. My corn dogs are not the same as the fair, but they will run them a close second and we really have enjoyed these corn dogs. If your fair is cancelled this year, you to might enjoy having a corn dog, it sure makes you feel better and brings back some awesome memories!

I was at the market doing my weekly shopping when I saw these awesome pork chops and they just called out to me, so they ended up coming home with me. I had just harvested some jalapeno's from my garden so why not put all that together. These pork chops are marinated with a jalapeno marinate and the grilled with some onions and more jalapeno's. This is a delicious recipe for these pork chops, and it is a great grilling recipe!

We had a recent visit to the apple orchard and couldn't resist using some of the wonderful apples in this great fall recipe. I love the flavors of fall and the combination of spices that bring warm and cozy flavors and our Honey Apple Skillet Chops is defiantly one of those recipes. This skillet of goodness takes very little time to put together and your family will love the combination.

This was one of my Mothers favorite Sunday recipes. She would put her recipe together in the heavy dutch oven. bake it then it would be ready to set on the table when we came home from church. I can still remember the smell when we would open the door, it was wonderful! It is the ultimate one pot meal with all the flavor of a delicious blend of ingredients. As time went along I made this dish for my family and I still make the recipe, it is just one of those Retro meals that we grew up with and passed on to our family. We recently had dinner with our daughter and guess what we had, it was the Pork Chop Dinner, I guess you could say it is a favorite at our house!

Pork and peaches are a great combination for this awesome recipe. These Kabobs are just delicious and will serve a crowd or just a few with ease. The recipe is very easy and the glaze could be used on several other dishes. We love to grill whenever we can and live in an area where we can grill most of the year. This is a great grilling recipe and gives just the right flavors to the pork and peaches.

We had planned to cook these country ribs on the grill and enjoy being outdoors, and here came the spring rain. It was the Instant Pot to the rescue, and rescue indeed, these ribs are amazing! The ribs have a great rub and are so tender they were falling apart. I will sure be using this recipe over and over rain or shine!

We had Pork Chops on sale at the market and the cabbage was just beautiful and really fresh. Pork Chops and cabbage make a great combination for a delicious new dish. I really wanted to make something different but full of the flavors that we love with this combination. I had a lot of fun developing this recipe and was very excited about the way it turned out. It has the wonderful flavor of the cabbage and topped with the seasoned braised Pork Chops then we added a thick Mustard Sauce that puts this recipe over the top. I can see this recipe going to some potlucks and diffidently family dinners.

I love a great quiche and sometimes can do without the crust. This is a great crustless quiche that is easy to prepare with a delicious flavor. I had a luncheon for a committee meeting the other day and made this quiche. I served it with a simple bowl of homemade tomato soup, lunch was a hit and the ladies loved the quiche. I actually used some of my leftover ham bags from the freezer, with some great sweet peppers, onions and some great seasons, then topped it with some rosemary oranges, it was delicious!

Our Slow Cooker Mustard Pork Roast With Sauerkraut is a perfect recipe to serve for a big game day, a Sunday dinner or a weeknight family supper. This is a very flavorful recipe that will have you coming back for seconds. The pork just falls apart and is so tender and juicy that no more than a fork is needed. The seasons for this recipe gives it a very special flavor and is perfect for any gathering.

This recipe is for one of those days when you need something fabulous to put on the table and not to long to do it in. Our Salsa Pork Chop Skillet is easy to put together and will be on your table in no time. The great flavor of these chops is seared in and then allowed to simmer with a flavorful salsa. This recipe can feed a large or small family, for supper or dinner which ever the event.

These Grilled Spicy Pork Chops have the best flavor of any grilled pork chop that I have ever had. Now I have had a lot of pork chops in my day, but really these are fantastic! Its the rub that makes them so flavorful, they look burned on the outside but they are not, it is the rub, inside they are so tender and juicy and that flavor is deep into the chop. We are paring them with some grilled peaches today to make this a very special plate of goodness!

We love ham here at the cottage, however we don't always have enough folks coming for the meal to cook a big ham. When we are expecting more than four at a meal, then I will bake our favorite  Baked Country Ham , but for a smaller group I love to bake this delicious Ham Steak. This is a great recipe that is easy, and on the table in no time, plus it's full of flavor.

I like to have a very special one pot meal that we can enjoy as a family and when we have guest. This recipe for Maple Pork Loin Roast has a fabulous flavor and the apples and vegetables just complete the maple flavor. I made a gravy from the cooking liquid that is almost like a creamy dessert, just delicious. We loved the recipe and I sure hope that you and your family will enjoy it!

There are so many recipes that we enjoy for our left over ham, and Nana's Ham and Potato Casserole is a family favorite. So easy to put together, and in just a little while you have a great casserole for the family and the left overs are gone. Often times when I am making my meal plans I will plan the left overs as a part of the meal plan, if you are going to be cooking anyway go ahead and make enough for another meal and take a night off.This recipe has all the ingredients of a full meal, all that is needed, a hungry family.
