This is one of my favorite growing up dishes. The flavor is excellent; it is warming and filling. I still don’t think I make it as well as my Mom does, but I try! The photo above is of the Great Northern beans I finished soaking this morning (see How to Cook Dry Beans). The [...]
Sylvia’s Chicken Noodle Soup was a hit for our dinner last night! The meatballs are out of this world yummy. We will have this meal again and again. My procedure was to take frozen chicken stock and get it simmering. Then I added diced onions, the soup spices, and 3 cups of wild rice to [...]

It makes a large quantity — great for company or for wonderfully nourishing leftovers. Even though the soup will be cooking in part all day long, it is [...]

My friend shared this recipe with me last weekend after we ate it at her house. She made it with venison and it was delicious! The recipe calls for lamb, which I don’t have, so I am using grass-fed beef stew meat. The sauce is fantastic over brown rice. I have assembled it in the [...]
