Cheesy Sausage Pasta Bake This sausage and mushroom pasta bake is cheesy and easy. It’s a nice mid-week meal or buffet dish. The January deep freeze of upstate New York always gets me to thinking about comfort food, casseroles and running my oven to add more heat to the house! Cheesy and comforting…

Baked Pork Chops on Rice
Pork Chops on Rice Simple and delicious. Rice is like risotto with no work at all! Light on calories too. This is a fast and almost work-free dinner. It’s actually a total meal in itself since there’s plenty of veggies right in the rice!!! Add more veggies too if you want! I used up…
Biscuits & Sausage Gravy Pot Pie
Biscuit & Sausage Gravy Pot Pie An old-time favorite in casserole form. Not unhealthy if made with reduced-fat ingredients. I have always loved this dish. However, as I aged, the fattiness tended to give me “agita” so I rarely ate it. I found a way to do it by using reduced-fat alternatives to the usual culprits….

Sausage and Quinoa Risotto
Sausage and Quinoa Risotto This is OH SO GOOD!! And easy too. One-pot meal. I have to admit. This was one of those suppers I threw together because it was one of those days I’d forgotten to defrost something. Sausage defrosts quickly and cooks SO nicely in a rice cooker or pressure cooker. I cooked…
