Believe it or not, I'm not a fan of cheese and try to avoid it whenever possible. So dishes that are stuffed with things like ricotta turn me off. I created this dish as a compromise to my cheese avoidance and my husband's love of Italian food. Serve this with garlic bread and a salad for a wonderful family dinner.

These potatoes are hard to resist with their crispy roasted outsides and creamy delicious insides. I learned to shake the boiled potatoes before baking from an English caterer. Try it! It makes a difference.

Homemade oatmeal cream pies. Mmmm.

A quick and easy way to make homemade pretzels. They can be brushed with butter or dipped in cinnamon sugar, just like they do at the mall. This is a treat I like to make for our Easter egg hunt.

Perfectly grilled tender and juicy chicken marinated in a lime cilantro marinade with soy sauce and topped with sweet chili sauce. Marinate the chicken the night before or the morning-of and you'll be ready for dinner in no time. This recipe was made in a Panasonic CIO.

Crisp and sweetly delicious, this salad is a wonderful addition to any summer picnic. May serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to four hours before serving for enhanced flavor.

This is a delicious twist to broccoli, rice, and cheese casserole, and is VERY easy to make. You can also cut this in half. I use the 1 can cream of mushroom soup when I make half. You can also leave out the onion. It just gives it a little added flavor, but is still very good without it.

Perfectly crisp and seasoned potato wedges straight out of your air fryer. It doesn't get any easier than this!

Quick and easy to make. A family favorite. The ketchup and brown sugar give these loaves a tangy flavor.
