Recipes have occasionally popped up on the internet for hash browns cooked in waffle irons and I also had a few recipes in cookbooks. The first one was Ina Garten’s Modern Comfort Food (2020) and the other is from a new chef Nick DiGiovanni in his Knife Drop cookbook (2023). I mainly used Ina’s recipe … Continue reading
I get my recipes from many sources and I especially appreciate those dishes from people I know, such as family. This recipe was shared by my niece, Bethany, who found this healthy choice from The Woks of Life and she loved it. I have their family cookbook (this recipe was not in it) and enjoy … Continue reading

The fries have the same delicious salt-and-vinegar taste and then they are baked besides. I’ve made a version using red potatoes and another using Yukon gold potatoes.

Potato recipes are always a good side dish either for breakfast, lunch or dinner – even as an appetizer. I like to serve these fries with a good spicy black bean, turkey or beef burger. The first recipe is worth 3 points per 4 wedges. Smoked paprika adds a little zing! The second recipe is 4 points per … Continue reading
These potatoes are always a good do ahead side dish for beef, pork or ham. I have been making these a long time and never posted the recipe because it is one of those sides where you do not need to measure the ingredients.
Spring is here and that always means crank up the outdoor grill. Some people will laugh when I say I have 2 outdoor electric grills, both are Weber grills, one is small and the other is bigger. I have used charcoal and then mainly gas but for convenience sake I switched to electric. What a great … Continue reading
A crispy cheese crust and a tender interior make these fries a good side dish to serve alongside many things such as a steak or sandwiches. See also recipes Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Juju’s Favorite Coleslaw.
