Brioche Burger Buns
What would a great burger be without a great bun. Right? Big, round, buttery buns. Like these buns. This recipe makes 9-12, so good for a small gathering.
Nom Nom Nom Naan NOM
Yeeah… so a bunch of years ago I made some killer naan (ask Kari and John) but somewhere in between I lost my notes, and my mojo, and ended up making bread with vaguely naan type flavors. The family liked…
Moroccan Pastilla
A pastilla is a type of savory pie, consisting of spiced bird of some sort or another encased in puff pastry. Variants can be found across the Mediterranean and into the Middle East, probably because they taste so good. Some quick…
Bastardized Indian Bread Food
If you know me, you know that I never bake. Baking is as much science (chemistry, especially) as it is an art, and we don’t get along so well – Screw up a step (which I’m good at) and there’s…
Vaqueros Corn Bread
If you're like me, you grew up with Jiffy cornbread. Not that there's anything wrong with that – Jiffy is cheap, easy, and tasty. All three of which are total 'wins' in my book. On the other hand, there's a…

For some reason it seems like a lot of people fear lasagna. I have some theories, but I’ll reserve them for a minute. Lasagna is, at the root, pretty simple. There are variations on how many layers, and the like,…
Qwiki Qwiki Spinach and Havarti Quiche (not really)
Quiches are easy, but they take time. This one is about two hours start-to-finish, leaving you plenty of time to try and figure out logical impossibilities – like how to play Canasta – in between the cooking parts. This one's admittedly…
Bacon-Crusted Macaroni and Cheese
This one's a rich meal, but it's got two of the major food groups – bacon and cheese. It's a rich dish, and can stand on it's own or be used as a side. For the latter, you definitely want…
Stuffed Peppers
SO this happened… I have a recipe I remember from my youth, and was included in the binder of random recipes that my folks gave me when I moved out, but no one seems to remember it now. Such is…
Cheater Cordon Bleu
This one is easy awesomeness. There’s bacon, there’s minimal work, there’s nommage. How could that be anything less? As the title suggests, it’s an easy variant of a Chicken Cordon Bleu, but in all reality it’s an improved version. Everything…
