Chocolate Ho-Ho Cake- (Organic/GMO-Free)
On Christmas Eve my family gets together and everyone brings a dish to share. Each year I generally bring a dessert. Last year I went all out and made a 6 layer chocolate mousse cake with hazelnut japonaise drenched in a layer of ganache and chocolate shavings. It was decadence on a plate. This year I desired to do something much simpler, yet still really yummy. Enter the humble Ho-Ho. (That would be the snack cake Ho-Ho, not the street walking ho-ho.)

Pan Seared Pork Chops with Mustard Cream Sauce- (Organic/GMO-Free)
Isn’t that a beautiful thing? I must say that a properly seared pork chop brings tears of happiness to my eyes. If you’re a child of the 60s or 70s you probably ate your fair share of pork chops that were dry as saw dust because back then our folks were told to cook pork until bone dry and then cook it some more. That way, when you cut into it, you’ll start a small fire and you’ll know it’s safe to eat. Thankfully times have changed and we don’t have to torture ourselves with dried-up pork chops that resemble a leather flip flop. If you have a meat loving male in…

Cheeses, Italian sausage, spinach and pasta- It’s love on a plate!! This is one of my favorite go-to recipes when I’m not in the mood to bake up a huge pan of lasagna, yet I’m in the mood for some saucy, cheesy, noodley, meaty goodness.

Cheeseburgers with Onion Bacon Jam (Organic/GMO-Free)
Accept my sincerest apologies for going on and on about my Onion Bacon Jam. I honestly can’t help it. It’s that good. I was just telling TSM that I am going to enter it into some type of bacon recipe contest because I nailed it with this recipe.

One Pot Hearty Beef Stew (Organic/GMO-Free)
I don’t know about you, but nothing warms me up like a bowl of beef stew. Rich gravy-like sauce, tender veggies, chunks of beef that melt in your mouth. It’s soul food if ever there was. This stew is comforting, hearty and it’ll warm you up. It’s like getting a hug from the inside out. Eating this stew even makes me happy. How’s that for emotional eating?

Sea Salted Chocolate Caramel Cookies
Don’t throw tomatoes at me, but this recipe isn’t 100% free of GMOs. I haven’t been able to locate a GMO free version of Rolo’s candy. I look at it this way. On rare occasion, I might eat a Rolo. Eventually I will no longer enjoy the taste of them, but for now, while I do on rare occasion AND while I have family members who have asked for this recipe, I’ve decided to share this recipe because the cookies are too good to not share with the masses. Ya know, after thinking about it, you could EASILY use some organic caramels in this recipe. Just cut them into Rolo sized pieces and…

Clucker-Noodle Soup (GMO-Free)
I’m not normal- And because I’m not normal, I like to call foods by other names. For instance, the humble chicken. Since we eat chicken about 3 times a week I get tired of saying chicken and feel that maybe if I spruced up what I call it, it won’t seem like it’s the THIRD chicken dish I’ve made this week. Enter: Clucker. Chickens cluck, which makes them cluckers so I call chickens cluckers. Are you glad I’ve shared this little bizarre corner of my world with you? Hopefully so, because yer all in for a groovy ride if you stick around with me for the next several years. Whooey! Let’s talk about…

Chicken Pomodoro Non-GMO
Happy Fast and Furious Friday everyone! Today I’m going to share this recipe with one of my favorite food blogs called The Food Renegade. TFR hosts a food blog carnival on Fridays, called Fight Back Friday where fellow (Renegade) food bloggers can share a link to a recipe or article on their blog. I love The Food Renegade because I consider myself a bit of a renegade. I am a lover of what we foodies call “SOLE” food. SOLE stands for Sustainable, Organic, Local, and Ethical.” I’m trying to cook with as many organic and non-GMO ingredients as I can find because I’m highly opposed to GMOs, and am trying to take control…
