Macaroni and Cheese is Food Critic’s favorite food. He requests it for every holiday meal and on any special occasion where he gets to choose the menu. He’s a Mac and Cheese Addict, and he’s pretty picky about his Macaroni and Cheese, too. He is a huge fan of my traditionally made “Macaroni and Cheese Cake” which is what he calls macaroni and cheese that’s […]
Pressure Cooker Collard Greens and Ham is one of those simple southern style suppers that, when served alongside some corn bread, makes a delicious meal. This recipe is one of my leftover makeover recipes. The leftover that was being turned into something new was the bone leftover from our Easter Ham. I have to confess. I didn’t trim the bone very closely before I threw […]
The idea for this recipe came from two separate places. First, the idea for the chicken came from Grandma Lynda’s YouTube Channel. The idea for the mashed potatoes came from the cookbook which came with the electric pressure cooker that I received for Christmas. I wanted to make “fried” chicken and mashed potatoes, so I decided to see if I could make both dishes in […]
Beans and ham are a perfect combination. My usual method of cooking them is to sort and degas the beans, then cook them on the stove top or in my slow cooker. Today, I decided to try something different. I have been having a love affair with my electric pressure cooker, and I have been enjoying how much faster things cook using this method. I was […]

The young woman who brought the soup course brought a pot filled with beans, corn, and meat that was reminiscent of a pot of chili. She explained that this soup was made with whatever combination of […]
Baked Potatoes are incredibly versatile. There’s the favorite toppings, and there are the extras you add to serve a “loaded baked potato.” They can be topped with so many different things to turn a simple baked potato into a complete meal. A few of my favorites are chili, taco toppings, and veggies with cheese. Leftovers can be chopped up to make baked potato salad […]
These ribs are a variation of my Dr. Pepper Ribs that I have been meaning to publish for some time. Sue Chef loves ribs. She particularly enjoyed the Dr. Pepper ribs that she had at a local restaurant. We don’t eat out often, but she really wanted to have those ribs again. I found a recipe for Dr. Pepper ribs over at Men’s Health back […]
As I previously mentioned, I am having a love affair with my electric pressure cooker. I’m using it at least twice a week to make something for dinner. It makes getting a meal onto the table simple and easy. Today’s recipe is for hot wings. I forgot to take my wings out of the freezer to thaw, so I made these from frozen. They were […]
