Refrigerator smack down by-product: Black bean peach salsa soup
2 Oct
I suddenly just want to get organized. I blame it on the season. This fall, I’m like a squirrel collecting nuts. I’m pretty sure getting everything organized will allow me a winter of sitting, stoking the fire in the fireplace and snoozing while the sounds of football fill the room. (Not likely, but one can [...]

Cucumber city
1 Aug
All I really want in my garden life is too many tomatoes. Is that too much to ask? I’m guessing by the state of affairs in my back nine, too many tomatoes ain’t happening this year. But I am one hell of a cucumber farmer. (Not to mention pumpkins and lettuce, too.) The rest of [...]

The first recipe I ever made
24 May
The first recipe I ever made (not counting chocolate chip cookies and macaroni and cheese from a box) involved chicken. I was in sixth grade and at a friend’s house. We went through a magazine and found a recipe for chicken that was basically marinated in salsa, Dijon mustard and lime juice. We then sautéed [...]

Entertaining: The Heavyset Cheese Ball
25 Apr
I don’t know if it’s true that you are what you eat, but my friend Amie is a total cheese ball. Here’s her guest post on trying a new appetizer recipe. I would highly recommend this with some crackers! Take it away, Amie! When I’m entertaining, I like my recipes to be simple, nearly impossible [...]

Egg bake. It’s what’s for breakfast and lunch and dinner.
20 Apr
I heart breakfast. Egg bake is one my favorite dishes for breakfast. OK, everything at breakfast is my favorite. Egg bake is a good way to use up food that is just hanging in the fridge. It’s also a great way to use up last weekend’s dried out bread. One reason I really enjoy egg [...]

About Serves Four
If you’re gonna eat, you might as well eat something good. That’s my theory, at least. And this is my blog: Serves Four, a little piece of the Internet where I’ll share adventures in the kitchen (and maybe even the garden.) Whether successes or failure, it’s my belief that the simple things are what really matter. Food is nourishment, not only for the body, but for the soul. Learn more.

Yay for granola season!
I’m a big oatmeal fan. I eat it all winter long. My favorite way to doctor it up is with a few teaspoons of natural peanut butter. But once the weather turns nice, the idea of hot cereal isn’t overly appealing to me. This is where granola comes in. Now is where you start calling [...]

On the menu 3
I’ve been pinch hitting for a while in the menu department. But, we’ve survived. Thanks to an enchilada spree, some frozen homemade black bean and potato burritos and nacho dinners, we’ve had enough to eat on the weeknights. It also helped that we had a pizza and kettle corn party. Check out the recipe at [...]

I don’t like cake.
I don’t like cake. There. I said it. Don’t get me wrong, I will eat it. But I can think of a lot of other things I’d rather eat. So, when faced with a birthday celebration, being not so interested in the dessert side of cooking, I am faced with a conundrum. What to make. [...]
