Ham & Cheese Breakfast Strata

Posted on December 30, 2014 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: egg casserole, ham & cheese strata, make-ahead breakfast dish | 4 Comments

At our home, breakfast on Christmas morning is always filled with excitement & joy. After checking our stockings by the fireplace, opening our presents that are under the tree & taking photos of our daughter, it’s usually a mad dash for me or my husband to make some pancakes, eggs & other assorted breakfast items. So this year I decided to change it up a bit & make an egg casserole dish ahead of time that can be popped into the … [Read more...]

Roso Balsamic Glaze

Posted on December 16, 2014 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: balsamic vinegar, Roso Balsamic Glaze, Uncle Steve's Italian Specialties | 2 Comments

I love a good cheese plate. While my husband & daughter can happily munch on sweets at a party or family gathering, you can always find me over by the cheese & crackers! During the holiday season, the easiest thing for me to bring to any get-together is an assortment of cheeses, meats (prosciutto, salami, etc.), olives, crackers & bread (cut into small "finger food" pieces). I'll even make a small plate for myself as an afternoon … [Read more...]

My family loves Mexican food. My husband tends to favor tacos or burritos, while I am always down for a good chile relleno, tacos or enchiladas. My daughter is happy as long as there is a cheese quesadilla on the menu & an endless supply of tortilla chips. Recently my daughter & I took a quick trip (just 15-20 minutes north from where we live) to try out solita Tacos in Valencia. It’s located at the Valencia Town Center which is the … [Read more...]
