Meatloaf Pizza Subs
I really love leftovers…especially when they can be reinvented to make a fun, easy, and completely new dinner! This was a raving success and something I will definitely be repeating. While I used leftovers from my Roasted Veggie Meatloaf with Balsamic Glaze, any meatloaf will do!
Roasted Veggie Meatloaf with Balsamic Glaze
Meatloaf is one of those meals that I make a little differently each time. The possibilities are endless and you can hardly go wrong: fresh herbs, oats, grated onion, sauteed vegetables, raw vegetables, barbecue sauce, Dijon, mashed black beans, various combinations of meat–all of which can provide excellent flavor and texture. Lately, thanks to my…
Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese
A short list of ingredients takes eggs to new heights in this quick-cooking dish that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or breakfast for dinner. This wasn’t my initial dinner plan, but when I realized I had some leftover smoked salmon (from the recipe I originally made to go with my Brown Soda Bread with Steel…
Mom’s Famous Taco Pie (Gluten-Free)
Simple ingredients come together in short order in this Tex-Mex dish the whole family will enjoy. Perfect for busy weeknights! My mom is a big fan of Mexican food and is great at devising easy recipes. She has also gotten rather adept at providing tasty gluten-free options since my dad had to give up…
Pancetta, Kale, and Parmesan Frittata
Frittatas are quick, easy, and a simple salad or cooked vegetable turns them into a well-rounded meal. Or serve this filling, flavorful recipe with a side of fruit for a lovely breakfast or brunch. Frittatas truly are fast food. A quick saute, five minutes in the oven, and you have a great meal. Frittatas are…
Kathleen’s Low-Carb Cottage Pancakes
Thanks to their light and fluffy texture and low-carb appeal, even those who don’t care for cottage cheese adore Kathleen’s Cottage Pancakes! High protein and low carb are typically not the words I associate with pancakes, but this recipe shakes things up a bit! A friend of The Fountain Avenue Kitchen passed…
Sausage, Pepper and 2-Cheese Pizza
One cup of Saturday’s Basic Marinara Sauce, some colorful veggies, and a little sausage make for tasty pizza toppings. A store-bought whole wheat thin crust makes for dinner in a flash. Why take out when you can have this? Hint #1: I like to put the toppings directly on the sauce then sprinkle the cheese…
Crispy Prosciutto Topped Salad with 2-Ingredient Dressing
This salad dressing sounds a little crazy. Yet the strange combination of two basic ingredients really works, providing a sweet/tangy edge to a simple mixture of fresh greens. A few well chosen add-ins really make this salad shine. Everything can be prepped ahead and tossed at the very last minute. Perfect paired with a protein…
Baked Fusilli with Asiago
This is the last–for a little while, anyway–in my string of recipes using Basic Marinara Sauce. (Another delicious and easy dinner using a portion of this sauce is Sausage, Pepper and 2-Cheese Pizza.) The following baked pasta dish is unique in that the meat does not have to be sauteed prior to mixing with the pasta. The…
Broccoli and Prosciutto 3-Cheese Personal Pizza
This pizza tastes as terrific as it looks and you just might be fooled at how easy it is! We are big fans of grilled pizza with homemade dough, but shortcuts can also produce amazing results. Start with a whole wheat pita, some leftover broccoli, and a few items from the deli counter and you…
Baked Egg in a Potato
Sadie, Silvia, Polly, and Peppy are our backyard chickens, and they keep us well supplied with fresh eggs! I am always dreaming up creative ways to use the eggs, and I recently saw a picture which inspired this easy dish my whole family adored. The recipe is very loose. Basically, you bake an egg in…
Easy Baked Potato Skins
Saving the tops of the potatoes from the Baked Egg in a Potato dinner is such an easy way to whip up these yummy treats but you can certainly make quick work of them by simply baking or microwaving a few potatoes at the last minute. While I topped ours with a sprinkle of sharp…
