Fresh Cherry Tomato Salsa

During the summer, I love to make fresh salsa. We don’t have fresh tomatoes from our garden yet, and we’ve only had a few tomatoes from the CSA. So, I picked up a pint of organic cherry tomatoes at the store to make some salsa.  I’ve never made salsa with cherry tomatoes before, but it…

Sausage, Pepper, and Onion Stromboli

I love stromboli… Especially in cold weather! I’m not sure what it is about cold weather that makes me hungry for stromboli, but ever since we had a taste of snow over the weekend, I have been wanting to make stromboli. A lot of the time when I make stromboli, I will layer ham, pepperoni,…

Cheesy Baked Pasta with Collards and Bacon

This is another dish that I wasn’t too sure about as I formed the recipe in my head… I’m really not much of a greens person in general.  Lettuce, spinach, arugula, kale, chard, collards…  You name it, I will probably turn my nose up at it. I do eat them all, but given the choice…

Join Me In Jennie’s Kitchen!

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had a few things in the works, and by now, you already know that one of them was a trip to New York City.  Now, it’s time for me to reveal the second! You will now see my writing and photography on In Jennie’s Kitchen on a…

Caramelized Onion Burgers

What could be more delicious than caramelized onions?  Caramelized onion burgers, of course. Sometimes I just get hungry for a nice juicy burger for dinner.  I think one of the reasons that I like burgers so much is that they are a blank canvas. This time around, my inspiration was caramelized onions.  I love the flavor…

Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Fajitas

I don’t know if it has been the heat or just lack of enthusiasm on my part, but I have been having trouble figuring out what to cook lately.  I think part of it is the fact that everything I want to eat doesn’t register real well with trying to eat healthy, and the healthy…

Mexican Cucumber Salad

I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot and humid in the summer, the last thing I want to do is cook on the stove or use the oven. With the amount of delicious fresh produce I have been getting from our CSA and our garden, I have been able to make a lot…

Mexican Cabbage Rolls

While this dish was inspired by my beef enchilada recipe, I am not going to try to tell you that cabbage rolls and enchiladas are the same thing. That’s like those diet articles that say to substitute carrot sticks for french fries, a bowl of fruit for a chocolate muffin. If you really want the…

Apple Maple Chicken Sausage Frittata

Earlier in the week, my husband went out of town for a few days.  I had to drop him off at the airport in the afternoon, so I decided to make a good hearty lunch for him so that he would have at least one good meal before the trip.  I guess that’s my mother…

Slow Cooked Chicken Sloppy Joes

Let me just say that I don’t really have a green thumb.  I can’t really say that it’s brown, either.  In fact, I think I would have to call it a red thumb.  Why?  Because the one thing that I seem to have a lot of success with is growing hot peppers.  In the last…
