Welcome to our family's kitchen!

These are some of our family's favorite recipes, including a lot of recipes that were handed down from my mother before she passed away. I often joke that I graduated from "The Culinary Institute of Mom's Apron Strings." My boyfriend and I love to cook; he even creates a special dinner every Friday night based on an important, or funny, or ridiculous historical event. You can look that up at "Doomed to Reheat" - we even do a podcast that you can listen to! We're a family of cooks, whether it's professional or amateur, and we hope you enjoy our recipes!

I am learning to blog as I go along, so please be patient with my mistakes! Until I figure out how to remove the headers, please use the links on the right side of the page to access recipes. I will add recipes as we find them, or as I find them from my current (very large) stash of recipes.

Mom's Deviled Eggs

Boiled eggs cut lengthwise and scoop out the yolks.
1 tomato, juice squeezed out and finely chopped
Mix tomato and yolks
Add a little salt (you can always add more if necessary)
A touch of apple cider vinegar, to taste (I usually start with a cap full)
Enough mayonnaise to hold together.  Sometimes just a spoonful is enough.



Add in any of the following optional ingredients:
  • Celery seed
  • Salt and pepper
  • celery finely chopped
  • sweet pickle relish
  • an onion finely chopped


Mix together until creamy and yolk is completely broken apart.  Spoon or pipe into egg halves.  Sprinkle paprika on top.  May garnish with a sliced olive or chopped green onions or chives.
