I received a testimonial tonight that was worth sharing. "I used your French Onion Grilled Cheese recipe for dinner tonight. It's basically ruined me for regular grilled cheese. So delicious!"

One of my favorite lunches as a kid was a grilled cheese sandwich with white bread and Kraft Singles. I'm not going to lie and say I don't love those still, but I may have found a grilled cheese I...

This is the creamiest, cheesiest Mac & Cheese recipe you will ever make, and it only takes 20 minutes.

I have never had much luck baking mac & cheese. It is always dry, grainy or just downright disgusting. A friend used to make the best mac & cheese every Sunday at the bar I used to work at...

Quite possibly the easiest recipe you will ever make. | Jamaican Jerk Seasoning http://wp.me/p322FP-5N

I love Jamaican food, but I especially love Jerk Chicken. What I don't love is going to the scary part of town to get my favorite Jerk Chicken in Houston, so I came up with a way to avoid that. I just make it myself. This is a super easy recipe, and you probably have most of the ingredients in your pantry already. [ 234 more words. ]

One of the only vegetables I eat, and it's not even healthy | Fried Cabbage with Bacon http://wp.me/p322FP-5I

I am not going to lie and pretend like I am a big fan of vegetables, but there are a few I will eat. Cabbage is one of those, and I have experimented with different variations of cooked cabbage over the years until I landed on my favorite. This recipe is great with grilled chicken, fish, pork chops and almost any other meat you can pair it with. [ 357 more words. ]

On a recent trip to Hawaii, a lot of the local restaurants served Onion Soup made from Maui Onions. While Maui Onions aren't necessary, they did make for a really flavorful soup, but you can make something just as tasty with some regular, sweet onions. Try this recipe and let me know what you think.

First things first, I am not going to pretend like French Onion Soup is one of those easy soups you can make in 30 minutes. It is the complete opposite, but the time it takes to get it perfect is ...

What else is there to have on New Year's Day other than some old-fashioned, southern cabbage rolls?

I know I'm a few days late on this New Year's favorite, but I have a secret to tell - I don't really make cabbage rolls. Jon-Michael always makes these, but they are a combination of recipes from ...

Winter is coming! But you can stay inside and enjoy a nice warm bowl of loaded baked potato soup.

First, the recipe calls for Chicken Stock, not broth. Since I am so domesticated and Martha-Stewart-like, I make my own; however, it’s not necessary. If you want to make your own stock, you can u...
