    Easy Cheese and Sausage Egg Bake

    It’s 84 degrees in our house. My den is in the finished room above the garage where I’m fairly certain the builders forgot to insulate, so it’s about 90 degrees in this room.  My fingers are so warm they’re sticking to the keys on the keyboard and I can barely swipe my finger along the touchpad without it getting ‘stuck’. You gotta love first world problems. It’s too warm to work on the post I needed to finish up in the kitchen, so instead, I’m going to just update a post from my blogging archives.  I originally shared this recipe under the title of  Italian Sausage & Gruyère Baked Omelet.  It’s a dish I make…

    30-Minute Monday– Italian Sausage, Pepper & Onion Hoagies

    Happy Monday everyone!  It’s time for another 30-Minute Monday dish.  Are you excited? I know I am. This weeks dish was a tasty one. I loved the pepper and onion mixture SO much; that I served it over some linguine the next night for dinner and it was UH MAY ZING! Whoa! Yeah, if you would rather just skip the hoagie roll, boil up some pasta and top with a couple slices of the sausage, and a few spoonfuls of the peppers and onions.  Yee-Haw it was tasty.  Actually, now that I think about it, you should probably try this as a hoagie first simply because this was a very flavorful and filling…

    Meatballs with Beef, Pork and Veal

    Welcome to the new blog site everyone!  Are you as excited to be here as I am to have you here?  I hope so!  Are you ‘CRAZY excited’, as my 8-year-old niece would say?   Imagine my surprise when after importing all the posts from my Blogger site I realized that I’ve shared my “Gravy”/Marinara sauce recipe, and a quick tomato meat sauce/ragu recipe and a basic white sauce recipe but I never shared my meatball recipe?  What is wrong with me?  Um, don’t answer that please… Please accept my most genuine apology for taking so long to post my meatball recipe.   I should probably remember to take my memory supplements more often.   I…
