    Turkey Tuesday: Pasta Fagioli with Turkey Sausage

    March 8, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I love soup.  Oddly, though, this has not always been the case. Years ago, I rarely made soup at home, unless it was chili – and even then, Teacher Man is the true chili maker in our house.  But somehow as I’ve gotten older and found myself enjoying being in…

    Turkey Tuesday: Easy Turkey Pot Pie

    February 2, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    This is the funniest coincidence, actually. My mom texted me over the weekend, showing me this gorgeous photo of her turkey pot pie. I asked her to send me the recipe and she emailed me the exact newspaper clipping I had saved many years ago. This is my go-to turkey…

    January 19, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Happy Turkey Tuesday, friends! I am well aware there are about a bazillion and one recipes for chili out there, but what’s one more, especially if it’s turkey chili, right? This week, I tried a new turkey chili recipe shared by a blogger I really enjoy at A Lovely Living. I…

    Mom’s Famous Spaghetti and Meatballs

    January 11, 2016 - By ldurben@charter.net

    My Mom is famous for her homemade spaghetti and meatballs. Or at least, we think she should be famous for her spaghetti and meatballs. Legend has it this recipe was the very first meal she cooked for my dad while they were dating, and he has been smitten ever since.…

    Spicy Turkey Sloppy Joes

    December 15, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Spicy turkey sloppy joes or spicy turkey barbecues?  Which team are you on? I say barbecues more – but then I’ll slip in a sloppy joe reference for no reason, so I guess I’m conflicted. 😉 I’m not conflicted on how delicious and flavorful this particular recipe from Jennie-O Turkey…
