These savory Hash Brown Egg Nests look and taste like something you might order at a top-notch breakfast place, but you don’t have to be a master chef (or shell out the big bucks at a nice restaurant) to have them.  Put them together in about 40 minutes with a few basic breakfast items. They’re great for a family meal or as part of a fancy brunch.

 

I was never really a picky eater, growing up.  I loved variety and enjoyed a lot of flavors. One big exception is with breakfast food; I’m very selective about that and always have been.  Long story short, if you hear me bragging about a breakfast food item, you should pay attention.  This little breakfast item really grabbed me.  I wholeheartedly recommend giving it a try.  You get all of the best flavors of breakfast, rolled up into one very nice (and I should say very artistic-looking) baked dish.  These egg nests are all kinds of delicious, and they really aren’t hard to make.

Hey, I am a meat eater. But I also love my veggies, and I like having a good go-to option that will satisfy me and my vegan or vegetarian friends (I have a few). This Ratatouille, Julia Child’s twist on a French culinary classic, fits the bill for a quiet home meal or a bustling event. It looks beautiful, tastes great, and cooks in record time!

Many masters of the kitchen have since followed in her footsteps, but Julia Child continues to inspire masters and aspiring amateurs alike. I loved how she honored age-old traditions while making gourmet, Cordon Bleu cooking readily accessible to the masses (as beautifully illustrated in the movie Julie & Julia). And she wasn’t afraid of admitting a mistake or popularizing a variation of a classic recipe when she thought that it would be better for most people, much to the chagrin of the culinary elite in her time.

I love the versatility of her version of ratatouille. It makes for a great meal by itself over a bed of rice or couscous, but it is also great as part of a multi-course vegetarian meal and pairs well with many popular meat dishes. Once the prep is finished, it takes only about 45 minutes worry-free minutes to bake. It doesn’t hurt, either, that it looks so beautiful once you pull it out of the oven.

Wow Your Dinner Party With This East-Coast Classic

There is a time to be creative and a time to accept that the classic recipe is the best. In the case of Maryland crab cakes, it is the latter. This timeless seafood appetizer works great as a warm-up for a more elaborate seafood main course or as a delightful bite-sized contrast to something like grilled steak.

I grew up around seafood, and though the classic Maryland crab cake may owe its name to a location far removed from my childhood home, it is an appetizer cherished by most any community close to salt water. And yes, Maryland crab cakes have an addictive savory taste: In the right mood, I could gorge myself on them without no need for anything else other than a nice helping of beer or wine.

Perhaps the best thing about this appetizer, though, is the versatility that it offers your menu: Obviously, it goes well with a larger seafood course, but it also pairs nicely with something like a grilled steak.

How To Make Restaurant Quality Onion Rings At Home

I love me some onion rings but more often than not they come out greasy or soggy. There are a few places where I will order them because I know they are good but in general they are hard to perfect. I had never tried them at home! Well, I should say I hadn’t tried them from scratch because I had always bought them pre-made and fried them in the fry buddy. Until now, that is.

 

 

This recipe makes those perfectly crispy onion rings that don’t hold a lot of the grease. For the first time ever I feel like it’s not even worth trying to search for the best ones, restaurant to restaurant, because these are the best ones. Just give these a go – I know you’ll love’m, and so will your family!

Other than a prime aged steak, Carnitas are my favorite meat. How can you go wrong with Mexican spiced fried pork, right? Even if this is the first time you’ve ever heard of Carnitas, I strongly suggest you give this recipe a go. You won’t be sorry!

 

This particular recipe truly is authentic. To have good carnitas you have to have the citrus – this recipe calls for oranges. Some people use shoulder for the carnitas, personally I prefer the pork butt which is exactly what this recipe calls for.

Creamy, Cheesy, Loaded Potato Casserole

Mmm, mmm, mmmmm. That’s the first thing that came to my mind when I found this recipe. It’s usually a sign that tells me something good is about to happen – or something delicious! And I was right.

 

This Loaded Potato Casserole is sure to be a hit at your next pot luck or tailgate. It has all the staples of a loaded baked potato but the easiness of a casserole. I like the fact the recipe has sharp cheddar in it, as I really enjoy having a stronger cheese flavor.

My family like a lot of cheese so I actually used three cups. It was absolutely perfect, but if you’d rather have a little less cheese, this will be just as delicious as a lighter version, too.

How To Impress Your Dinner Guests With This Perfect Side Dish

This Blooming Baked Potato recipe is a really clever and impressive way to show off your culinary skills at your next dinner party or family get together!

 

This is a classic baked potato combo of cheese and bacon–but in a very fancy and extra-savory package.  The “Blooming” of the potato makes it cook a little differently, too, and I like the texture of this dish much more than I do with most traditional ways of serving a baked potato.

 

You’re going to look like a professional chef serving this to your friends and family! Just make sure you have enough – because this tastes just as delicious as it looks!
