Perfectly Cooked Eye of Round Roast, tender round roast generously sprinkled with a mixture of salt and pepper, forming a crust to hold in all the juices. The roast is the star of the recipe, so no other ingredients are necessary to create the most succulent meat. Eye of round roast is a lean, inexpensive cut that comes from the hip and hind legs. Often sold as a roast, steaks for marinating, and referred to the round when buying ground round hamburger. I definitely recommend using a meat thermometer to ensure not overcooking the eye of round roast. Overcooking the roast past medium-well will result in the meat being tough.

Hatch Chili Pepper Cornbread
Hatch Pepper Cornbread , spicy, robust flavor from hatch chili peppers in classic cornbread gives a smooth heat rather than a kick. The difference in the taste profile is due to the soil and climate in which the chili peppers are grown. HATCH MEXICAN CORNBREAD This Hatch Mexican Cornbread is embellished with sharp cheddar cheese, buttermilk, and the star of the recipe, hatch chili peppers. Every year, I look forward to the Hatch Chili Pepper season. It starts around the first of August and lasts until the end of September, but depending on the weather, the season can run shorter or longer. All the buzz about the Hatch Chili Pepper comes from its distinct flavor, which is smoky and sweet yet still packed with some heat without being too spicy, like the jalapeno pepper. Right now, my local grocery stores are showcasing all the ways to enjoy the Hatch Chili Peppers, from using them in salsa to adding them to ice cream.

Old Fashioned Doughnuts
Old Fashioned Doughnuts , just like Grandma used to make, easy and straightforward. The dough is very forgiving and easy to work with. One of the ingredients will surprise you, yielding a texture nothing short of perfection. Have you ever wanted to make old fashioned doughnut from scratch that does not take all day in the kitchen to make? That's me...I like to get up early on a Saturday morning and whip up a batch of cake doughnuts just like the bakery down the street before everyone gets up. I learned from Ashely Strickland Freeman the author of The Duke's Real Mayonnaise Cookbook that she loves to make homemade doughnuts on a Saturday morning also.

Turnip Hash Browns
Turnip Hash Browns are an excellent low carb side dish and the perfect substitute for potatoes. Make them in an air fryer or roast them in the oven, seriously delicious, not to mention keto friendly. Turnip Hash Browns are a yummy addition to any meal, not just breakfast. I have always enjoyed turnips cooked with turnip greens, but I have played around with roasting them in the oven and cooking them in the air fryer for an alternative to potatoes in recent years. I like to peel them and cut them up in small cubes versus shredding them. I keep it simple and toss them in a little drizzle of olive oil or avocado oil and sprinkle your favorite seasonings on them. If you would like to cook them in the air fryer, just spray a little avocado oil on them with your favorite seasonings.

Fresh Strawberry Cake with Strawberry Buttercream Frosting
Fresh Strawberry Cake with Strawberry Buttercream Frosting is the ultimate Southern dessert for any special occasion or a delightful dinner with family. Fresh juicy strawberries take center stage in this show-stopping strawberry cake and buttercream frosting. I always think of a Strawberry Cake around Mother's Day. It has a certain Mother's charm about it, richness, softness, and sweetness. This Fresh Strawberry Cake is a little different from my Mother's heirloom recipe she made when I was growing up in the '50s.

Pineapple Casserole
Pineapple Casserole, a sweet Southern casserole that can be served as a side dish or dessert at Easter on many Southern tables without a doubt. It is made with canned pineapple, flour and sugar, sharp cheddar cheese, and topped with crushed Ritz crackers. Who would have thought pineapple, cheddar cheese, and Ritz crackers combined would make a remarkable, delicious dish only in the South?

Roast Bone In Chicken Breast with Fennel
Roast Bone In Chicken Breast with Fennel, an elegant dish, and delicious with complex flavors. But don't let that keep you from devouring this perfect entree. Fennel is a wonderfully delicious vegetable when cooked to full tenderness like bone in chicken breast take, which takes longer to cook than boneless chicken breast. My idea that the fennel would lend flavor to the chicken ad the chicken would flavor the fennel nicely was beyond my expectations. The results were remarkable.

Whole Roasted Cauliflower
Whole Roasted Cauliflower, a delicious side dish that is meaty and filling enough it could hold center stage as a meatless main dish. Cauliflower has become one of our favorite vegetables. I have always broken the cauliflower into flowerets and roasted them with a little olive oil and seasonings. After seeing several recipes come across Instagram, I was so intrigued by roasting a whole cauliflower I had to give it try. The key to getting a tender succulent return on roasting a whole cauliflower is to cook it in butter with fragrant spices and herbs before roasting. This will cut down on the roasting time and lends a beautiful sauce to serve over the cauliflower cut into glorious steaks.
