Homemade Chicken Pot Pie – Recipe

Chicken Pot Pie is a great new dish and another creative way to use leftover chicken meat.

In my case, it was the latter, since I had some leftover chicken meat from our Roasted Chicken dinner.

Vera’s Blueberry Muffins – Recipe

Vera is a friend of mine who is an excellent cook and a wonderful baker.  I love all her recipes, and she shares them with anyone interested in trying them out.
Today, I will share her recipe for Blueberry Muffins, which are simple to make, require a few basic ingredients, and are melt-in-your-mouth delicious.  She suggests mixing in anything you wish (fruits, berries, nuts, chocolate chips) and tweaking the recipe to your preference.

Steamed Fruit Dumplings – Recipe and Technique

This recipe is a very old favorite of mine. It reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking days and my Sunday visits to her with my mom.
I love these fluffy dumplings because they are so light in texture, and so delicious served with melted butter and sugar.
This recipe dates back to my great-grandmother, who was of German descent, and most likely to her mother and grandmother, which would date back to the 1700s.

Green Goddess Quinoa Salad – Recipe

This Quinoa Salad with Magic Green Sauce became my favorite from the first time my daughter-in-law served it for lunch during one of our visits.
It could easily be a light lunch, or as an accompaniment to a main course.
Today I will share a recipe for the salad, since you already have the sauce/dressing recipe from my previous post.
