Sausage and Bowties
From Mimi’s recipes This dish was a staple of my childhood. It was in my grandmother’s recipe box, but I am pretty sure she got the recipe from my mom, who got it from a magazine. I ate this probably at least once a month during fall/winter, and once every other during spring/summer, and it…

Meatball Stroganoff
From Mimi’s recipes This one is labeled “Meatball Stroganoff- Mother” which I assume would be my great grandmother’s recipe. I love Stroganoff, anything with mushrooms really, and with meatballs instead of sliced meat it becomes super simple. Unfortunately I am cooking for a tough crowd; My daughter has decided she hates all things mushroom, and…

Posh Squash
From Aunt Deb’s recipe box This recipe was written out three separate times in the box, so I knew I had to make it before squash season was over. When it comes to summer vegetables I am usually the type to either just stick it on the grill or sauté in a pan, because who…

Peanut Butter Cookies
From Aunt Deb’s recipe box This recipe is credited to Lynda Wenske, who’s name is on a few recipes in the box. My guess is that she was a friend of Aunt Deb’s. This is a great peanut butter cookie recipe. It whips up quickly, and using shortening instead of butter gives them a great…

Hot German Potato Salad

Arroz con Pollo (Bill Delicate’s Version)
From Mimi’s recipe box This struck my eye when I was going through Mimi’s recipe box, since as far as I knew no one in the family knew much about Spanish or Spanish cooking. I am not 100% sure who Bill Delicate was, but in discussion with my mom we are pretty sure that he…

Aunt Joan’s Orange Jello Salad
recipe from Deb Kohle My mother in law texted this one to me, saying I had to try it and that my daughter would love it. I usually refer to this type of recipe as a “Jello atrocity” but decided to give it a go! I honestly really like Jello, but it can get weird…
