Greek Meatballs in Wine Sauce

Posted by Kishka  

A Rachael Ray recipe from the Food Network site. I like that it's dairy-free for those among us who are allergic/sensitive to dairy or keep kosher! I'm sure it can be adapted to suit individual tastes (keeping with the Greek theme, you can add... MORE»

Artichoke Heart Salad

Posted by Kishka  

Whoever created this recipe called it "Mushroom Toss," which I never understood, since the mushrooms are no more important than the other ingredients in this salad. So I am re-naming it after the artichokes - equally random, I suppose,... MORE»

Lemon Squares

Posted by Kishka

Given the opportunity, I think my husband might request this soup as his last meal. (Or second to last - nothing compares to a really good steak.) The recipe is really easy, but there is a lot of babysitting involved, so this soup is a good bet... MORE»

Penne a La Vodka (With a Little Kick!)

Everything Soup

It should really be called "Commitment Soup" because it's the kind of soup that you need to commit a Saturday or Sunday to. Not that it's tremendously complicated, it just that letting it cook for 6-8 hours does some wonderful things to... MORE»
