Summer in the winter. Dried Fig and Citrus Jam from frozen dried figs I picked off of my tree.

So much citrus I couldn’t resist a second Can Jam entry: Meyer Lemon and Kiwi get together in Marmalade.

for tigress’ can jam: Orange jelly with the background spice Coriander turned up to 11!

Mixing up Mexican and French for TNS: Hobo Tuesday. Eggs, beans, cheese, salsa – can you go wrong?

If you can pound it flat, it can become a “Parmesan” dish. This one is with Pork.

DB: Apple butter & Caramel filling for a Bakewell Tart. Very American meets Very British.

Quick and tasty meal with pantry staples. Thank you Smitten Kitchen, please forgive me for not liking vegetables.

Dinner for 6 for $1.16, not exactly company food – but tasty. Bonus crispy leftover suggestion.

What to do with 10 lbs of potatoes you bought on sale. A more comforting food I know not.

Pre-Made Empenada wrappers, are they a deal or a dud? Testing with Apricot Pork Filling.

Weird Pantry: Chili Garlic sauce – a hot chameleon.

Novice Indian cuisine, pork curry over rice. Not classically pretty, but delicious and perfect for the slow cooker.

Showcasing Homemade Chicken stock with Avoglemeno soup. Stock, rice, lemon, egg. Simple and delicious.

Sorta healthy pancakes with canned B-Nut Squash. Make ahead batter reduces morning work for the caffeine impaired.

Changing up your Casserole with Cornmeal. Can leftovers be sexy?

A souffle that always falls = pudding. Cheesy, slightly spicy, completely tasty.
