I have a recipe that is perfection for those that love breakfast for dinner – a Savory Oatmeal with Bacon, Spinach and Blistered Tomatoes.

Now – before you give me that side-eye, hear me out. Do you like grits – like cheese grits? What about polenta?

This recipe is a riff on that with a savory oatmeal flavored with thyme and Parmesan cheese and simmered in veggie stock. Easy peasy. I was inspired by some savory oatmeal recipes from Shape Magazine and decided to play. A splash of heavy cream adds a bit of richness and to add even more flavor, I wanted to add some accoutrements like, what else, BACON!…

I have a delicious recipe that will warm y’all right up – this scrumptious Lemon Chicken Noodle Soup.

One of the challenges I face is when one has leftover rotisserie chicken, what do you do? There’s only so much chicken salad that a gal can make. Faced with a partial leftover chicken taking up valuable real estate in my refrigerator, I thought “Soup”. However, I was not in the mood for my normal Southwestern Chicken soup.

The holiday season is here with everyone hustling and bustling, trying to get everything ready for holiday celebrations. However, there are those that will not be having much of a holiday. I saw on the news that the local food banks here in Philly need help as their shelves are getting bare, not only for the holidays but also to stock up for the cold winter months ahead.

San Giorgio® Pasta has a fantastic initiative that will help many in need this season – #PastaForGood. Through Pasta for Good, New World Pasta Company, the maker of San Giorgio® Pasta, will be donating 25,000 boxes of pasta to non-profit organizations that are serving those in need throughout Pennsylvania, Maryland and Washington, D.C. 5,000 boxes of pasta are going to be donated to each food bank they are helping including one of my favorites, Philabundance here in Philadelphia. Besides Philabundance, this initiative is also helping Maryland Food Bank in Baltimore, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank in Harrisburg, Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank and Capital Area Food Bank in Washington, D.C.
