Spinach & Artichoke Dip


This is a Paula Dean recipe with a few additives (more parmesan, and the cream cheese is not in her recipe). I wouldn't mind mixing in a bit of the pepper jack cheese either. This is a real crowd pleaser at parties, and really easy to make. And of course, it's DELICIOUS!
  • 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
  • 2 (13 3/4-ounce) cans artichoke hearts
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 cup grated pepper jack cheese
  • 3 Tbs. cream cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a casserole dish with nonstick spray.

Heat the spinach in a microwave oven on high for 5 minutes and squeeze dry. Drain the artichoke hearts and coarsely chop in a food processor (or with a knife).

Combine all the ingredients except the jack cheese in a large bowl. Stir well. Scrape into the prepared casserole dish and sprinkle the jack cheese on top. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve with bagel chips or tortilla chips.

Taco Soup

*Fair warning to everyone: I seem to have a real issue with following recipes exactly . I don't think I ever follow a recipe the same way twice, and I'm really bad at measuring out ingredients, I tend to just 'eye' them alot, so if my recipes get really annoying when I just say, "as much as you want", sorry... 1/2 lb. ground beef 1 small red onion (I just always use regular onions, or onion flakes if I'm out of those) 2 cans stewed tomatoes (I just use regular petite diced canned tomatoes, but the recipe recommends Mexican style) 1 can kidney beans, undrained (I also add 1 can black beans, undrained) 1 can corn, undrained 1 package taco seasoning 1 can tomato soup (if you happen to be out of tomato soup like I was when Will & Peggy & Amy were here, about 1 soup can of salsa makes a nice substitution) I also like to add dried cilantro - um...as much as you want. Place all ingredients in large pot, and simmer for 15 min. Serve with sour cream, g...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

You know that elusive, best-ever, chocolate chip cookie recipe?  Yeah I don't know where that is because everyone has a different idea of what the best cookie is.  And that's okay!  Variety is the spice of life.  If you don't love what I love, that's fine! I'll judge and think you're crazy, but we will both survive.  You'll go on loving gross cookies, and I'll go on loving the good stuff.  And we will both, somehow, be happy with that.  If you ever want to try the good stuff, it'll be right here for you.  And so will I.  Maybe.  I'm not as forgiving as these best-ever chocolate chip cookies....
