Many, many years ago I tried a recipe that called for baking egg rolls instead of frying them. The recipe was from Cooking Light magazine, and I just had to try it. The recipe called for copious amounts of cooking spray- you’d spray the raw, rolled up egg rolls and […]

Happy Birthday Zander!!
Eleven years ago you came into this world and filled my heart near-to-bursting. Your care and compassion for others is one of my favorite things about you, as well as your enthusiastic spirit to try anything once. You have a heart of gold- you truly are a Super Hero! […]
Snickerdoodle Blondies
It’s Birth Week here at the Tummy Treasure home, and that means several different variations of birthday treats for the birthday boy. Zander turns eleven on Tuesday, if you can believe it! That’s practically a teenager! On Tuesday he’ll be taking a birthday treat to dance, but since my young […]
Cooking Class: Panna Cotta
I have never had a Panna Cotta before. I admit that a part of it never really appealed to me- a milky flavored gelatin type of dish? How could that really be good? That was my train of thinking. So when Abigail chose Panna Cotta as her Italian dessert to […]
Perfect Pie Crust
Your Grandma has always been right. Lard really does make the best pie crust. After making it a few times now, I can say that I have perfected my recipe, and am now ready to share it. While I did render my own lard, and I store it in […]
Tummy Treasure on Facebook?
Sure, why not. It might be a very convenient way to follow Tummy Treasure. When I have a new post here on the Tummy Treasure food blog, I’ll post a photo and a teaser on Facebook. Tummy Treasure on Facebook I’m coming up on my ten year anniversary of the […]
About Those Cornbread Waffles
In 2014, one of the food blogs I follow, Serious Eats, put everything in a waffle iron. I am not exaggerating. They’ve waffled countless sandwiches, stuffing mixtures, desserts, pizza, even tofu. I want to say they even waffled some noodles, but I’m not sure I’m remembering that […]
Oven Roasted Chili Verde
I don’t know why this never occurred to me before. I have a fantastic beef stew that I make in the oven, but a batch of chili? The idea started with a package of pork chops from the freezer. When we got our pig from the butcher last fall, I […]
Brownies with Coconut Oil
The post holiday season usually finds most people tired of sweets and goodies- for me, that actually meant that I threw things out this year. It seemed that from Thanksgiving to Christmas I was eating pretty constantly. I’d just had enough, and my sweet tooth was out of control! But […]
A New Season With The Best Blueberry Muffins
It’s time to give this blog a little reboot. I had no idea how much my disfunctional camera was affecting my desire to blog until I started telling Andy the other day. When I told him I’d ordered my Fire, I confessed that I was hoping the camera was nice. […]
Testing, Testing
I am now the happy owner of a kindle fire, which I’m really hoping will help me blog more. This is my first post from the fire, so I’m also going to try adding a picture of my new pizza stone…I hope it works! Bingo! So much more to come, […]
Revisiting Artisan Bread
Every once in a while I’ll put together a batch of Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. Usually when I do that, I will then go on to make a few batches in succession, and then the interest wanes. In fact, the last time I had the bucket going, […]
