Do you remember old fashioned cornbread dressing? Some people call it dressing others call it stuffing. But whatever you call it – it’s moist, dense yet fluffy and flavorful. Oh yeah, THAT dressing!

Did you know that young, tender luffa is actually edible??!! Yep, it’s a delicious, tender, and surprisingly pest-free substitute for zucchini in the garden.
That’s right, if you harvest your young luffa when they’re only about 5” long they’re very similar in taste and texture to a zucchini squash. No, really!

I use leftover mashed potatoes to make fried potato cakes. (some call them potato pancakes).
They’re quick & easy and a great way to rework leftovers into something delicious. Soft & pillowy inside, crunchy outside. I share both skillet frying and Air Fryer instructions.

The Instant Pot makes quick work of cooking a bag of dry Black-Eyed Peas. And this simple recipe has an added spicy kick from Rotel-style tomatoes. I can put them on to cook when I start supper and they’ll still be ready to eat when we are. That’s FAST!
