Bacon-Wrapped Potato Bites
I’d write something eloquent about this, but doesn’t the recipe title tell you everything? My friend Corinne of spare cake made these for me a few years ago, and my guess is that she didn’t make the recipe up. It’s not even much of a recipe — just an amazing technique that you need…

Cider Pot Roast
While I know there are people out there who dream of steak dinners, prime rib, or some other fancy cut of cow, my all-time favorite beef dinner is a good pot roast. I’ve been wanting to post a pot roast dinner to the blog for years now, but I hadn’t figured out how to get…

Atomic Fireball Liqueur Remember when we were little kids and you could get Atomic Fireball individual candies for a penny or five cents depending on the era and rate of inflation? I wonder how much they are these days. In any case, I was trying to make a spiced cranberry liqueur when I came…

Gluten-free Apple Pie (vegan option)
Now that we have have a pie crust that works, of course I had to make apple pie. Because most of you won’t have the copious amount of home canned apple pie filling that is currently sitting in my garage, I made one up using fresh apples. Gluten-free Apple Pie (vegan option) 2 batches of our…

Blue Squash Ginger Soup
This soup was inspired by the huge fragment of a Blue Hubbard Squash I bought because I wanted to try one. But then I had to figure out what to do with 3.5 lbs of squash. That’s too much roasted squash to be reasonable, so I figured why not soup. Blue hubbard is weirdly blue-ish…
