My husband’s favorite drink is Jack Daniels and Coke which got me thinking that might really make a great braising liquid and boy was I right. I am not a Coke drinker (or any other soda for that matter) but in this recipe it sure does taste good…

This is my friend Pauline’s famous and incredibly simple Honey Crisp Pie- it’s light and fresh and so delicious! Whenever she makes it, it disappears instantly! The secret is to use really good apples and to not overcook the pie! She doesn’t use any spices and that lets the apple flavor shine though.

This pasta is one of my favorites and I have been making it for years. It’s got the smokey flavor of the chipotles combined with sweet corn and crunchy peppers. It’s a nice change from the typical pasta and sure to be a crowd-pleaser at your house! If cooking for the kids, add the chipotles slowly, making sure the heat is not too much for them.
