Recipe: Asparagus Wraps

by Molly Jo Realy @MollyJoRealy


This recipe was inspired one rainy afternoon while I watched Paula Deen on The Food Network. They sure have some great eats on that network! I was trying to think what I could make with my last roll of phyllo dough, and I caught a glimpse of her sautee’ing asparagus. Voila! Another recipe was created.

 

Phyllo dough is essentially easy to work with, but it is delicate. It’s important to follow the directions on the box to keep it from drying out.

I recommend preparing your asparagus ahead of time, assembling your ingredients in … read the rest. . .

Recipe: Potato Chip Casserole

I’m at it again; entering this week’s Holiday Recipe Exchange for a chance to win a 3.5 quart Le Creuset French Oven. Come join the fun at the My Baking Addiction and GoodLife Eats Holiday Recipe Swap sponsored by Le Creuset.

This another “heritage” recipe, handed down from my mom to me to my daughter. It’s the first oven-dish I ever taught her to make. My mom makes hers with tuna but my daughter doesn’t care much for any fish other than shrimp or my blackened salmon, so I changed this recipe up with a can of chicken instead.… read the rest. . .

Recipe: Cheesy Potato Soup

by Molly Jo Realy @MollyJoRealy

I love the creamy, cheesy soups at restaurants. But I can’t afford to go out each time I want one bowlful. For the price of less than three restaurant servings, this recipe serves up 12 or more portions. It’s simple to make, freezes well, and goes great with breads.

It can be made on the stove top or in the slow cooker. Directions for both follow the recipe.

 

INGREDIENTS:
1 chopped onion
2 TBSP butter [if stove top, not needed for slow cooker]
6 small red potatoes, chopped
1 large [26 oz.]  condensed Cream … read the rest. . .
