Lemon Cookies from Scratch
This lemon cookie recipe makes a batch of soft, delicious, old-fashioned cookies with just a few lemons.
Quick and Easy Eggs Benedict
This is an easy eggs Benedict recipe that I like to make when I'm in a hurry. The sauce is simply put together in a blender - no double boiling necessary. Assemble eggs with sauce over hot buttered English muffins with Canadian bacon, or if you prefer, Serrano ham.
Slow Cooker Chicken and Vegetables
Add some color to your slow cooker chicken and veggies, by browning the chicken skin beforehand. Not only is it more appetizing, it tastes better, too. Prep all the veggies, load them into the cooker, and place the browned chicken on top. No need to add any liquid, either, as everything slow roasts in the pot! Serve with a salad and some bread to complete the menu.
