ORANGE CHIFFON PIE I don’t know if you love soft, fluffy, airy, light, sweet, simple, gorgeous desserts…(!)…if not, this may change your mind. This pie is not heavy or dense, so after a protein meal it’s wonderfully wonderful! (If you don’t like the thought of using raw egg whites, the powdered meringue would work, also….
Ditch the can…go homemade!
CREAMY TOMATO SOUP Most supermarket tomato soups contain quite a bit of sugar and lots of sodium. This one is homemade and so good.

CINNAMON-CHOCOLATE TEA BREAD I love to make quick breads. They are hardly any work, but always rewarding! This one is soft and buttery with a ribbon of cinnamon infused chocolate running through…can’t get any more comforting than that! Slather it with some fat free cream cheese, if you like…but warm and plain is just fine!…
For the Popeye in you…
CREAMED SPINACH A silky, cheesy side dish that goes perfectly with roasted chicken, salmon, and tender steaks. Or leave the meat and serve along side a mound of softly scrambled eggs. I like the crispy top from the hot oven, but if you’re in a hurry, you don’t have to bake it. Stir the spinach…

So familiar!
COMPANY CHICKEN Please don’t judge the recipe by the photo! (I still didn’t know what I was doing with my camera…one of these days I’ll make it again and we’ll make prettier!). This is such a good recipe – it’s been in every hometown cookbook and continues to be a favorite. Sounds odd and weird…
Dark, dark chocolate…my favorite cake (this week!)
MOCHA CAKE This is always requested for birthdays, potlucks…just about anywhere someone wants me to bring a cake – this one is IT! I adore this – it’s very, very chocolaty and extremely moist. (It’s not low-carb…sometimes you can’t mess too much with a great thing. But it’s sugar free or low sugar, depending on…
