Dad's Breakfast Pizza
This recipe can be very versatile depending on your preferences. My whole family used to gather at 10 a.m. every Sunday morning at Mom and Dad's for breakfast. Dad made this up one Sunday, and it has been a favorite of ours ever since =)
Grilled Zucchini with Parmesan
This grilled zucchini side dish with garlic butter and melted Parmesan is a summer favorite at my house. So easy and tasty, and complements grilled steak, ribs, chicken, or fish.
Shaped Vanilla Cookies
These are soft, cake-like cookies, best with frosting. Roll them out thickly, and bake no more than 8 minutes. They will stay soft, and everyone raves over them. I use them as cutouts for holidays.
