Hearty Bean Soup

This is one very thick and hearty bean soup.  I find ordinary bean soup a bit bland, so I kicked this one up slightly with diced chilis.

Chicken Corn Chowder

The corn base give the chowder a lovely sweet flavor.  The chowder itself is thick enough to be a stew and wonderfully filling.

Chicken Stew with Harvest Vegetables

This is one of my favorite chicken vegetable soup recipes.  Best of all it's low calorie and freezes beautifully.

Halibut Piccata

A version of this recipe was fabulous made with chicken, but I thought it would go very well with halibut.

Macadamia Crusted Halibut

I invented this recipe

Filet with Balsamic Mac and Cheese

I know this sounds a bit odd; I thought so too

Old Fashioned Pie Crust

I learned to cook deserts when I was very young.  Many of the recipes I learned then have been “updated”.  Some of the changes are good, but others are not.  I find modern piecrust recipes lacking.
