Midwestern Chili

This recipe comes from my friend who grew up in the Midwest. It's what I consider a very traditional American chili. We've made it ahead of time for camping trips and it has always been a success. It makes a great chili dog option too. It tastes even better on day 2.

Spinach and Cheese Strata

This is one of my favorite brunch recipes. You do most of the work the night prior and before your guests arrive all you have to do is bake it. Leftovers taste great too.

Quiche Lorraine: Bacon, Cheese and Onion Quiche

Quiche Lorraine is a classic quiche recipe that never fails. It's a crowd pleaser and is usually devoured quickly whenever I serve it. I've simplified the ingredients a little bit so they are all very easy to find. Feel free to use a store bought pie crust if you prefer.

Peach Jam

I have a peach tree in my yard that had one of the best fruit seasons this summer. That also meant that no matter how many peaches I gave away, there were still too many to know wat to do with. I figured I would dabble in canning and making peach jam. Though it can be a time consuming process, it's actually easy to do.

Honey Lime Fruit Salad

If you're looking for a new way to make fruit salad, give this a try. The honey and lime juice add a great flavor while the fruits themselves offer something much more exciting that what is sometimes served as a fruit salad.
