  1. I made the Chili Rellenos Casserole and it was wonderful! A quick family meal that didn't take much prep with everything I had in the pantry. I've been wanting to try the black bean soup, but haven't gotten around to it yet.-Meesha

    1. Schnitzel was on my short list of favorites! Fillipo did us all a favor when he got me hooked on great red sauces. I'll bet Lena's daughter makes our recipe for her kids someday...

  3. I had no idea you had a blog until I saw your comment about it on Facebook. I couldn't get the link to work but found you anyway. The recipes look yummy so I guess I know what I will be doing over the next little while. Can't wait to try some of these. Ü
