Summer Tomato and Onion Salad
Quick and easy salad using my Michigan garden tomatoes.....a summer taste treat!
Egg Butter with a Twist
Egg Butter (Finnish Munavoi) is butter and hard boiled eggs mashed together and spread on toast, crackers or bagels. I added anchovy & mustard to this recipe.
Spaghetti Squash with Tomatoes, Garlic, Anchovies and Cheese
I love pasta but the carbs don't love me, so I turn to alternatives to get my fix. Spaghetti squash can be bland on its own, but combined with a few punches, can be a real treat!
Grilled Flat Iron Steak with Spicy Sriracha Sauce
The Steak in this recipe is actually marinated in some of the Sriracha Sauce with the rest served on the side. It's spicy and super tender when thinly sliced.
Tuna with Zucchini Noodles
Our effort to eat fewer carbs yet get bold flavor.....
Grilled Eggplant with Lemon and Garlic
My Great Aunt, Vangelica, who we always called Lella Ginda, made an eggplant dish similar to this one. She dusted eggplant slices with flour and fried them and then layered them with great amounts of lemon and garlic. I always loved it and have made it several times. This time I took the eggplant out of the frying pan and on to the grill ...
White Chocolate Toffee Chip Frosting
Recently I found a recipe for "2 Ingredient White Chocolate Buttercream" on the Cookies&Cups blog. I loved the idea of melting white chocolate and butter together and turning it into a rich buttercream frosting. Using that technique, I added vanilla, ricotta and English toffee bits for this one. Crunchy and not too sweet, it'll satisfy your craving.
Ridiculously Easy Frozen Grapes and Yogurt
We keep grapes in the freezer all summer for a simple and refreshing snack or dessert. This time I dressed them up with a little sugar and set them on a sweet and tangy yogurt sauce elegant enough for company!

Balkan Lamb and Leek Pie
This Balkan Lamb and Leek Pie recipe could easily be sliced table-side because it's so pretty and unique-looking. Sophisticated without much effort. Enjoy!
Cheesy Pub Straws
A favorite at British watering holes, cheese straws are a classic and so easy to make. I used a sharp cheddar, paprika and dry mustard, but feel free to use your favorite cheese and seasonings
Basil Cubes
By making this Frozen Basil Cubes with extra virgin olive oil recipe in the summer, I have the fresh taste of basil all year long. Use in soups, sauces, pesto.
Sweet Hots
This is my take on jalapeno wonton poppers, the recipe you see all over the internet where cheese is combined with jalapeno peppers, wrapped in a wonton wrapper, fried and dipped in a sauce. I put the sauce right in and form into a mini egg roll making for a nice little sweet and spicy bite (or two).
Fresh Pears and Frico
This recipe is so easy and uses just three ingredients but makes for a nice little appetizer.

Flank Steak with a Mustard Salt Crust
This is one my folks used to do often in the summer with all cuts of beef...chuck, sirloin, flank..whatever was available. Only three ingredients and proportions of mustard and salt depend on the size of the steak.
Not Shirley's Temple
A grown up version of the cocktail you drank as a kid.
Wilted Cucumber Salad
This wilted cucumber salad recipe is simple but complements a variety of dishes. This can be doubled or tripled depending on the size of your picnic.
The Not So "Tornado" Potato....just for fun!
This Korean Tornado Potato recipe is consisted of a whole potato spiral cut & wrapped around a skewer & then deep fried. Season with salt & pepper or Cajun.
Sweet Tea Slush
Iced tea is a favorite summer quencher around here but I often find that the ice dilutes it too quickly. By making "ice tea" cubes I can enjoy my glass and keep it cold at the same time. I added ginger and mint instead of the traditional lemon for a different twist. - inpatskitchen
