Spinach Phyllo Triangles {Step-by-Step}
Spinach Phyllo Triangles. Glorious buttery crispy pockets of cheesy spinachy love. This was the first dish I learned to make using phyllo dough. There was some trial and error as I recall, but now this dish is quite routine for me. While it does take a little more time to prepare than some appetizers, it is well worth it. And your guests will love them too.

Turkey Tetrazzini {and a rambling on family}
Shelby and I recently had the pleasure of flying north to visit my brother, sister and their families for a few days. We, like many families, are separated by distance and life and the stuff that can get in the way. This trip was a chance for us to put all of that aside and just be together. It was wonderful. How does that relate to Turkey Tetrazzini? I’m about to tell you in a long winded way. However you won’t hurt my feelings if you’re simply here for a great leftover turkey recipe and know that we loved this growing up. See below.

Coquilles Saint-Jacques
Coquilles Saint-Jacques. It’s a bit tricky to describe how incredibly rich and utterly amazing this dish is. But I must try. It’s an absolute favorite of ours, reserved for very special occasions. Or when we think we deserve it :)

Crab Stuffed Mushrooms
Crab Stuffed Mushrooms For our last several family gatherings we’ve decided our dinner menu would be a vast array of appetizers. We all, kids through Grammy and Granddaddy, love finger foods and this way no one is a slave to the kitchen. As each family comes through the door the assortment grows and a new round of grazing ensues. It’s fabulous.

Roasted Italian Veggie Grilled Cheese Sandwich {on Kalamata Olive Ciabatta}
Roasted Italian Veggie Grilled Cheese Sandwich {on Kalamata Olive Ciabatta}. It all began with the ‘featured’ bread at the bakery counter yesterday. Kalamata Olive Ciabatta Rolls. Combine that with my desire to build a better-than-the-last Grilled Cheese Sandwich…and we may have a new winner.

Parmesan Crusted Homemade Fish Sticks
Parmesan Crusted Homemade Fish Sticks I grew up in a very small New England town in southern New Hampshire. There was a large Catholic population which meant every Friday night was fish night in most households. And while some of my friends grumbled, I begged to be invited for dinner in hopes they’d be serving fish sticks and French fries. Loved them. Please tell me I’m not alone on this one.

Pecan Salmon Caesar Salad
Pecan Salmon Caesar Salad. This is such a wonderful weeknight meal. Simple fresh ingredients that come together with ease. Glorious maple pecan encrusted salmon over a bed of crisp romaine with hard boiled eggs, fresh tomatoes, homemade croutons and shaved Parmesan cheese. As delicious as you could find in a restaurant, enjoyed in the comfort of home.
