Well, to my surprise "everyday dinner recipes" was the winner this week. These are a few of my family favorites. Starting with carbonara, it is so easy. The chicken can be omitted and I have also used Italian sausage which is really good. I originally made my carbonara with whole eggs but an Italian friend of mine said she used just the yolks (her Grandmother's recipe in Italy) naturally I had to try it and she was right it was better, much creamier (thanks Diane). I did find that you had to thin it out with reserved pasta water. The next recipe is cheeseburger pie, I have made this for years, everyone loves it, serve it with a salad. Last, roast chicken which is one of my favorites I usually make it with the thighs. I am picky with my chicken, Sunset and Caputos both have the Amish chicken, good quality. Sorry, just one picture, this is after all the week before Christmas! I am hosting a dinner party for 8 on Tuesday so look for those recipes on Wednesday. Enjoy!

About Me
- Carol
- As a professional in the food industry, before I became a mom, I was definitely a "purist". I like to give the example that when I served pate, I made the pate, weighing it down with my tinfoil covered brick! Once I had children, life got much busier. Consequently, I created shortcuts and do ahead tips for my recipes. Although I firmly believe in cooking with all natural ingredients, it doesn't always have to be so time consuming to cook a wonderful meal. Throughout my professional career, I have worked in many places; gourmet take outs, caterers, restaurants, etc., but my passion has always been teaching cooking. I try to make my recipes very "doable" for the average person with lots of shopping tips and from the knowledge I received from catering lots of "do ahead" tips. My passion has always been sharing my knowledge of cooking, and nothing makes me happier then when I hear that a person made the recipes from my classes and that it was a great success. Hope to hear from you!
