Sooo… It’s been awhile. I know… but this interruption in posting has been brought to you courtesy of a very important time of year… DEER SEASON. We’ve spent more time in the woods than at home… I finally drug the hubs home on Sunday… He’d been at our lease for 19 days straight. But we […]

“There are a number of delicious and trendy methods to prepare greens these days, but nothing beats a pot of classic bacon-flavored, ham hock-enhanced old-style collard greens.”
“Tangy vinegar brightens the earthy flavors, and a touch of honey rounds out the smoke from the ham hock.”
We have been getting lots of snow this winter, which is great for the drought, ski season, and soup days. I love warming up to a bowl of comforting soup on a cold day. Ok, on really cold and snowy days, I don’t leave the house, I stay inside where it is warm and toasty, but I still appreciate a bowl of hot soup.
We are currently loving this Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Chowder. It is the perfect meal for winter!
Josh, unlike me, loves to get outside when there is a big snowstorm. He hits the ski slopes as often as possible. When he gets home, he is ready for warm, comfort food…and this chowder always hits the spot!
When you think of Southern comfort food, this is sure to be one of dishes that comes to mind. Chicken and dumplings is one of the first recipes I learned from my mom. She taught me to make it with canned biscuits, which is a great shortcut. I made it her way a lot in college and when we were newlyweds, but for some reason I forgot about this family favorite for a while. I’m so glad to bring it back, and the rest of the family is happy too! It’s hard not to enjoy a hot bowl of dumplings, chicken, and vegetables smothered in a thick and creamy broth.
