Generations of family cooking, all here
Keahon Stuffing (kinda)By HeatherLeighI twisted Debby's arm to *roughly* give me the recipe for the Keahon Stuffing. She described this as a "nebulous recipe" and I really had to squeeze the basics from her (amounts, steps, ingredients, ya know, a RECIPE!). At any rate, make this your own (as you'll have to) and hopefully enjoy! I love it, hence my determination. Editor's Note: my mom and I got a good laugh trying to make this recipe a reality, hope you have fun with it too!
Al’s Mushroom RisottoBy HeatherLeighAl: The two most important things about making risotto are using good quality arborio rice and the stirring! I use Rice Select arborio rice which is readily available in most supermarkets, in a clear plastic 36 oz. container. All of their rices are tasty!!
Heather’s Roasted Beet & Avocado SaladBy HeatherLeighThis is from a restaurant I used to work at and is unbelievable. The power is all in the dressing, so do it right. If you're lucky, you have pre-roasted, aka ready-to-eat beets at your grocer to save a bit of time, but either way, you'll get those beet-squeamish to ask for seconds!
Susie’s Asian Noodle SaladBy HeatherLeighThis is really yummy and works great as a side dish or entree. Don't bother getting the bags of shredded carrots from the store as they're flavorless. And since this salad is so easy, you can spend that extra 10 minutes doing it yourself!
Susie’s Mac & CheeseBy HeatherLeighThe worcestershire and beer give the mac and cheese a pubby taste, albeit a homemade pub!
Granna’s ColeslawBy HeatherLeighI have never made this and think it might be a real challenge to live up to the Great Betty Fortune. Her quote for the recipe: "I don't know how much, I just do it." She beat Nike to the punch by 40 years!
Flavia’s Mac & CheeseBy HeatherLeighThis is my Grandma's macaroni & cheese. I miss her so much so it's nice to cook this up and think of her. To my surprise, it freezes great. And as my mom says, it's popular at tailgates, picnics and backyard cookouts, i.e. pretty much everywhere!
