Potatoes Stuffed with Brie and Ham
The DamFam is in the throes of cross country season and this season I have three (count ‘em!) THREE runners. If you didn’t know this already, the way to a cross country runner’s heart is through his/her stomach. These kids (like most athletes) hold carbs in high esteem. And I’d be lying if I said it’s not a daily challenge to keep the pantry and fridge stocked with foods that hungry runners like to eat.

Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos
We were out with our friends Fernanda and Jorge this past Saturday night. They moved their family from Mexico to Milwaukee for Jorge’s job a few years ago, and we’ve gotten to know them recently. I love their accents. I also love to pick Fernanda’s brain about food from her Motherland, so of course I had to ask her about her menu plans for Cinco de Mayo. And naturally – because I tend to get really excited about these things – I was expecting a full and colorful description of authentic dishes, recipes and family traditions — and instead she looked at me like I was loco.

Cheddar Parmesan Bread — From Scratch!
You’ve heard me say that I’m not much of a baker and I’m petrified by yeast. Sixteen years ago, I attempted bread from scratch and fell flat on my newlywed face. A total failure. My brand-new husband and I laughed it off as we both nearly broke our teeth on the rock solid brick I presented. And I hung up any further hopes of the irresistible smell of bread baking in my kitchen. Recently however, my next door neighbor Fred – who bakes bread for a hobby when he’s not bringing new babies into the world – has inspired me to give it a go again.

Cheddar Gougeres
To make up for that yummy but less-than-cost-conscious post I wrote for last week’s ad (tenderloin crostini if you didn’t catch it), I figured I owed you a recipe for something you could probably make from ingredients you already have in your fridge. And no, I’m not talking about scrambled eggs, grilled cheese or boloney on white, either. I’m talking about a recipe that will make you look like a 4-star, fancy pants gourmet chef – for pennies. Hard to fathom, I know. But it can be done! Let’s make gougeres!

Cambozola Pizzetta with Rosemary & Roasted Garlic
I have to thank the sweet girls in the Mequon cheese department for introducing me to my latest bad habit: Cambozola cheese, my friends. A soft and creamy blue – if you’re a blue fan, you simply must try it! And what better time to give it a taste than during the month of September, when it’s being featured as the Cheese of the Month!? (read: it’s ON SALE!)

Lightened Up Mac & Cheese
A few days ago I had the radio tuned to WKLH while I drove the kids to school. The dj’s were taking listener calls (did anyone else hear this?) and the topic of conversation was “Dumb Stuff My Dad Used to Say”. I was riveted. It was quite entertaining…dads can spout off some funny material, after all. A few of my favorite quotes from the callers:

How Appetizing!
We’re nearly through the Holidays! Hooray for us, we’ve almost made it! The endless party conga is about to call it quits.
And I have to tell you, I’m so darned tired of cooking. Tired of cleaning the kitchen and loading / unloading the dishwasher too. At present, I’m staring at a dried up, once-gorgeous-but-now-bordering-on-pathetic tree that needs to be taken down ASAP.

Salsa Baked Goat Cheese
Mmmm, I have a problem with cheese. Goat cheese, in particular. I can’t seem to incorporate enough of it in to my diet.

Layered BLT Dip
Over the last few weeks I’ve been in a real slump. Not much cheese drifting between my ears. But alas…. today the brain turned to cheese once again. I started thinking about BLT’s and how can I use cheese with this American favorite. Ahhahhh…. Layered BLT Dip. It was an instant hit in our Germantown Sendiks and I hope you and your family will enjoy it too!
