Red cabbage is so pretty resting there in the produce counter next to its green cousin. I had never found a satisfying recipe for red cabbage until recently. The flavor is different from that of the green variety so it needs to be prepared differently. Try this.

It’s Medicare renewal time again. The season starts in October and ends December 7th. That is not soon enough for me. I am satisfied with my Humana HMO coverage. I don’t want to change, thank you. I refuse to be lured with “possible” savings. I might get $144 back on my Social Security monthly check, they say. One company even suggested I “might” save as much as $1,500 in a year. That’s less than $144 per month. I need to call right now, they insist. Poppycock!

Here is a fun way to serve cantaloupe. Honey dew melons would work, too. Show your family and friends that you really are a good cook. It is delicious.

I think of this recipe as a glorified French toast. Two exceptions: It has cheese in it and its baked. It;s not only a breakfast dish. Instead, it makes a nice luncheon dish, something a little different.

This makes a tasty dish for lunch or meatless supper. To make this quiche extra special, cook and crumble 4 slices bacon, adding it to the egg mixture with the cheese and onions.

No need for a pastry crust with this one. Just stir it up and pop it in the oven. An hour later and lunch is ready. Now don't tell me you don't know what to do with zucchini. This recipe is quick and easy to stir up.

Yup, here's another zucchini recipe. Such a versatile vegetable. Just a little ground beef goes a long way here. You have a meat and vegetable dish. A rice dish would go well here.

I like a fully baked ham. It is so easy to work with. There are a zillions glazes for ham. Here is another good one.

I like peanut butter pie, but, hey, there is nary a pie I don't like. This one is easy to stir together. Hope you like it.

I love freshly made cake doughnuts. It's ok to frost them when you've had your fill before they go stale. Coffee and doughnuts go together. However, they are not something you make often. When you have all of the family in-house, stir up a batch and make an extra pot of coffee.
