Bab's New England Seafood Chowder
This is a really easy chowder recipe that can easily be adapted to your liking by varying the types of seafood you use. You will see that I use canned evaporated milk as opposed to half and half or cream. This will eliminate the possibility of your chowder curdling. This makes about 10 servings. Ingredients: Unsalted…

Bab's Blueberry Bran Muffins
I love baking with buttermilk. I know you probably think it is really fattening because the word BUTTER is in the name, but 1 cup of low fat buttermilk has only 98 calories and 2 grams of fat but somehow this wonderful elixer keeps baked goods nice and moist while also adding great flavor. So, this recipe is for using all…

Need help from all you bakers out there......

very very good marinade for chicken breast
Hi, folks, We used to do this at the restaurant I worked at, for grilled chicken breasts, and I say it can't be beat. We'd make twice this much, but the recipe below is AMPLE for probably 3-4 pounds of chicken if you want to do a big batch. Combine ingredients in a large zip-top bag or sealable container large enough to…

Burn them before you eat them!
I think alot of people are missing out on an added benefit of cooking from scratch. Of course we all know that eating as clean as possible is best for you. We know preservatives are bad. But do you realize how many calories it takes to prepare and cook your food from scratch? Plus then there is the clean up! Even if you…
