Grandma’s Cookbook-Recipe Refresh #2 Yorkshire Burger (with mushroom gravy) *1954
This recipe really intrigued me. It's like a big meatball biscuit casserole thing! LOL! Refreshing these recipes right now is a little challenging with us being in this quarantine but It's a great time to learn the "art" of substituting ingredients in recipes. I LOVED this dish with the mushroom gravy but I will say … Continue reading Grandma’s Cookbook-Recipe Refresh #2 Yorkshire Burger (with mushroom gravy) *1954
Egg White, Basil & Bacon Sandwich with Avocado
I have been putting fresh herbs in my egg whites lately and I ordered this new spice blend from Tastefully Simple and thought I'd give that a try. It's called Si Si Cilantro.

Grandma’s Cookbook-Recipe Refresh #1 Jack Pot Casserole (1948)
Choosing recipes for this series is hard enough with so many to choose from within this wonderful book but adding to it the challenges we are facing right now, made it even more difficult with our limited pantries and shopping trips. BUT, let's face it...it pales in comparison to what people are enduring and dealing … Continue reading Grandma’s Cookbook-Recipe Refresh #1 Jack Pot Casserole (1948)
My Journey Into My Grandma’s Cookbook
I can't even remember how long I have had it. It's just kind of always been there. Through all the moves, packing and unpacking, on this shelf, in that cupboard... just always around. I am almost ashamed of that. Like it's the lost or forgotten of Andy's toys...dusty, under all the newest and more … Continue reading My Journey Into My Grandma’s Cookbook
Pomegranate Apple Crisp
This recipe is definitely one of my favorites and perfect for the Holidays!
This is a really different apple crisp recipe but I love it! You get a little crunch and zing from the pomegranate seeds along with the rich sweetness of the apples and crisp topping. I am always pushed into the mood to make apple pie or crisp when I have those extra apples left in the produce drawer that no one wants to bother eating because they aren’t perfect. 😦 So, I tend to make apple recipes with a mix of different types of apples on their last leg and it hasn’t failed me yet! I REALLY hate wasting food, so sometimes I create great recipes because of it….win-win! 🙂
You will need:
- 8 cups of peeled, cored and sliced apples (any kind you prefer)
- 1 cup of pomegranate seeds (save a little for garnish)
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 cup uncooked oats
- 1 cup…

This is a great recipe to revisit for the Holiday season!
If you are looking for a change from green bean casserole for the holidays I invite you to try this delicious and easy recipe. Now this doesn’t fall into my Healthy Selection category (AT ALL) but it IS for the Holidays when you make those little splurges. I have never been a fan of the good ol’ green bean casserole and this is what I have always made, and as far as I know, I haven’t had any complaints 🙂
You will need:
- 1 pkg. (includes 3 bags) Schwan’s Live Smart Microsteam Green Beans (you can also use fresh washed green beans)
